Description

Note

This operation is not supported by directory buckets.

Returns torrent files from a bucket. BitTorrent can save you bandwidth when you're distributing large files.

Note

You can get torrent only for objects that are less than 5 GB in size, and that are not encrypted using server-side encryption with a customer-provided encryption key.

To use GET, you must have READ access to the object.

This functionality is not supported for Amazon S3 on Outposts.

If either the source or destination S3 bucket has Requester Pays enabled, the requester will pay for corresponding charges to copy the object.

Note

This functionality is not supported for directory buckets.

Possible values:

  • requester
