All objects and buckets are by default private. The pre-signed URL is a reference to Ceph S3 object, which allows anyone who receives the URL to retrieve the S3 object with an HTTP GET request.

The following presigning command generates a pre-signed URL for a specified bucket and key that is valid for one hour:

aws s3 --profile myprofile presign s3://bucket/file

If you want to create a pre-signed URL with a custom lifetime that links to an object in an S3 bucket you have to use:

aws s3 --profile myprofile presign s3://bucket/file --expires-in 2419200

This will create URL accessible for a month. Parametr “–expires-in” is in seconds.

When pre-signed URL has been expired, you will see something like following:
