Retrieving requestPayment Configuration

You can determine the Payer value set on a bucket by requesting the resource requestPayment.

To return the requestPayment resource

  • Use a GET request to obtain the requestPayment resource, as shown in the following request.

    GET ?requestPayment HTTP/1.1
    Host: [BucketName].s3.amazonaws.com
    Date: Wed, 01 Mar 2009 12:00:00 GMT
    Authorization: AWS [Signature]

If the request succeeds, Amazon S3 returns a response similar to the following.
