Hello, I updated the question in stackoverflow
the bucket is not accessible in public so I think that's why I am having cors error
should I use
aws-sdk for this?I don't have permission to make the bucket public and boss wants it to be private
you need to generated a presigned url
you send a request to your backend which then uses aws-sdk to speak with s3 and generate the url
then you return this url to the browser
and then open the url to get the file
linesofcode mentioned a good way to handle private files. Another and more costs effective way would be to ask a cdn for this signed url. Only the cdn have access and verify the identity to the files. The cdn caches the files and edge them @Black Caiman

ohh didn't see your reply @linesofcode 😅
keep in mid the cache... s3 caches 1 hours. cloudfront (aws cdn) saves 24 hours. so you pay ~24 times less ^^
Black CaimanOP
wait there's payment for every generated presigned-url? 😅
just new about this please have mercy hahahahaha
you pay for the get
Black CaimanOP
it's also different in subscription? or is it also in the package?
no its default s3 costs
Black CaimanOP
ohh got ittt
u sure?
Black CaimanOP
not really hahahaha
hahahahaahah. What specifically is missing?
@B33fb0n3 keep in mid the cache... s3 caches 1 hours. cloudfront (aws cdn) saves 24 hours. so you pay ~24 times less ^^
Black CaimanOP
this one it's confusing hahahaha
I am totally noob about aws 😅
and it's a huge costs thing.. imagine paying 100.000 $ only for S3 stuff and the you switch to S3 with CDN (Cloudfont) and only paying ~4.200 $...
well yea, that's nice
well yea, that's nice
so: of course you can archive the behavior your want, but for what price?
100.000 $ or ~4.200 $
🙂
100.000 $ or ~4.200 $

It depends on your scale…..
of course it does, but % doesnt change
absolute values changes, bot not percent
I haven’t paid over a dollar for s3 yet
Black CaimanOP
ohh i thought thats comma hahaha so s3 with cdn is cheaper than s3 only?
@Black Caiman ohh i thought thats comma hahaha so s3 with cdn is cheaper than s3 only?
it's a combination of both. And because the cdn caches everything it costs 24 times less, because cdn cache is 24 hours and s3 only 1 hour

ohh okay gotta tell boss right away hahaha
