IAmazonS3.PutObject Method (PutObjectRequest)

Adds an object to a bucket.

Amazon S3 never adds partial objects; if you receive a success response, Amazon S3 added the entire object to the bucket. You cannot use PutObject to only update a single piece of metadata for an existing object. You must put the entire object with updated metadata if you want to update some values.
If your bucket uses the bucket owner enforced setting for Object Ownership, ACLs are disabled and no longer affect permissions. All objects written to the bucket by any account will be owned by the bucket owner.
Directory buckets - For directory buckets, you must make requests for this API operation to the Zonal endpoint. These endpoints support virtual-hosted-style requests in the format https://bucket-name.s3express-zone-id.region-code.amazonaws.com/key-name. Path-style requests are not supported. For more information about endpoints in Availability Zones, see Regional and Zonal endpoints for directory buckets in Availability Zones in the Amazon S3 User Guide. For more information about endpoints in Local Zones, see Available Local Zone for directory buckets in the Amazon S3 User Guide.

Amazon S3 is a distributed system. If it receives multiple write requests for the same object simultaneously, it overwrites all but the last object written. However, Amazon S3 provides features that can modify this behavior:

S3 Object Lock - To prevent objects from being deleted or overwritten, you can use Amazon S3 Object Lock in the Amazon S3 User Guide.
This functionality is not supported for directory buckets.
S3 Versioning - When you enable versioning for a bucket, if Amazon S3 receives multiple write requests for the same object simultaneously, it stores all versions of the objects. For each write request that is made to the same object, Amazon S3 automatically generates a unique version ID of that object being stored in Amazon S3. You can retrieve, replace, or delete any version of the object. For more information about versioning, see Adding Objects to Versioning-Enabled Buckets in the Amazon S3 User Guide. For information about returning the versioning state of a bucket, see GetBucketVersioning.
This functionality is not supported for directory buckets.

Permissions

General purpose bucket permissions - The following permissions are required in your policies when your PutObject request includes specific headers.
- s3:PutObject - To successfully complete the PutObject request, you must always have the s3:PutObject permission on a bucket to add an object to it.
- s3:PutObjectAcl - To successfully change the objects ACL of your PutObject request, you must have the s3:PutObjectAcl.
- s3:PutObjectTagging - To successfully set the tag-set with your PutObject request, you must have the s3:PutObjectTagging.
Directory bucket permissions - To grant access to this API operation on a directory bucket, we recommend that you use the CreateSession API operation for session-based authorization. Specifically, you grant the s3express:CreateSession permission to the directory bucket in a bucket policy or an IAM identity-based policy. Then, you make the CreateSession API call on the bucket to obtain a session token. With the session token in your request header, you can make API requests to this operation. After the session token expires, you make another CreateSession API call to generate a new session token for use. Amazon Web Services CLI or SDKs create session and refresh the session token automatically to avoid service interruptions when a session expires. For more information about authorization, see CreateSession.
If the object is encrypted with SSE-KMS, you must also have the kms:GenerateDataKey and kms:Decrypt permissions in IAM identity-based policies and KMS key policies for the KMS key.

Data integrity with Content-MD5

General purpose bucket - To ensure that data is not corrupted traversing the network, use the Content-MD5 header. When you use this header, Amazon S3 checks the object against the provided MD5 value and, if they do not match, Amazon S3 returns an error. Alternatively, when the object's ETag is its MD5 digest, you can calculate the MD5 while putting the object to Amazon S3 and compare the returned ETag to the calculated MD5 value.
Directory bucket - This functionality is not supported for directory buckets.

HTTP Host header syntax

Directory buckets - The HTTP Host header syntax is Bucket-name.s3express-zone-id.region-code.amazonaws.com.

Syntax

public abstract PutObjectResponse PutObject(
         PutObjectRequest request
)

Parameters

request: Type: Amazon.S3.Model.PutObjectRequest

Container for the necessary parameters to execute the PutObject service method.

Return Value

Type: PutObjectResponse

The response from the PutObject service method, as returned by S3.

Examples

This following examples show multiple ways of creating an object.

This example shows how to put an object, with its content being passed along as a string.

PutObject sample 1


// Create a client
AmazonS3Client client = new AmazonS3Client();

// Create a PutObject request
PutObjectRequest request = new PutObjectRequest
{
    BucketName = "SampleBucket",
    Key = "Item1",
    ContentBody = "This is sample content..."
};

// Put object
PutObjectResponse response = client.PutObject(request);

This example shows how to put an object, setting its content to be a file.

PutObject sample 2


// Create a client
AmazonS3Client client = new AmazonS3Client();

// Create a PutObject request
PutObjectRequest request = new PutObjectRequest
{
    BucketName = "SampleBucket",
    Key = "Item1",
    FilePath = "contents.txt"
};

// Put object
PutObjectResponse response = client.PutObject(request);

This example shows how to put an object using a stream.

PutObject sample 3


// Create a client
AmazonS3Client client = new AmazonS3Client();

// Create a PutObject request
PutObjectRequest request = new PutObjectRequest
{
    BucketName = "SampleBucket",
    Key = "Item1",
};
using (FileStream stream = new FileStream("contents.txt", FileMode.Open))
{
    request.InputStream = stream;

    // Put object
    PutObjectResponse response = client.PutObject(request);
}
