Very simple: do not store any secrets client-side. You will need to involve a server to sign the request. You'll also find that signing and base encoding these requests is much easier server-side. It doesn't seem unreasonable to involve a server here at all. I can understand not wanting to send all of the file bytes to a server and then up to S3, but there's very little benefit to signing the requests client-side, especially since that will be a bit challenging and potentially slow to do client-side in javascript.
It's , as serverless architecture became quite popular, uploading files directly to S3 is possible with the help of AWS Lambda. See my answer to a similar question: stackoverflow. I've wrote a Vue component doing such things, the S3 upload related code are library agnostic, have a look and get the idea. Add a comment. Active Oldest Votes. Just spent hours debugging this thinking it was a permission issue. Trip Since the browser is sending the file to S3, you'll need to detect the timeout in Javascript and initiate a retry yourself.

Man, I forgot how complicated things were before Lambda. Will summarize here: As soon as the user selects a file to be uploaded, do the followings: 1. Make a call to the web server to initiate a service to generate required params In this service, make a call to AWS IAM service to get temporary cred Once you have the cred, create a bucket policy base 64 encoded string.
Then sign the bucket policy with the temporary secret access key to generate final signature send the necessary parameters back to the UI Once this is received, create a html form object, set the required params and POST it.

Good grief. Thanks for this answer! OlliM OlliM 6, 1 1 gold badge 33 33 silver badges 45 45 bronze badges. Nilesh Pawar Nilesh Pawar 7 7 silver badges 11 11 bronze badges. Wouldn't anyone be able to use my "IdentityPoolId" for uploading files to my S3 bucket.
How is this solution preventing any 3rd party from just copying my "IdentityPoolId" and uploading lots of files to my S3 bucket? So even if anybody accessed your identity pool id they cant manipulate your s3 bucket files.

It isn't as easy as logging to the console, because logging to the console is not getting the file downloaded to my users. I can't find any examples of how to actually get the link onto the page or downloaded to the user.
It is a promise, so I have to wait on it, and can't just add it to a link tag Add a comment. Jordan Daniels Jordan Daniels 3, 1 1 gold badge 16 16 silver badges 27 27 bronze badges.
