LISTOBJECTSV2

PDF

Returns some or all (up to 1,000) of the objects in a bucket with each request.
You can use the request parameters as selection criteria to return a subset of
the objects in a bucket. A 200 OK response can contain valid or invalid XML.
Make sure to design your application to parse the contents of the response and
handle it appropriately. Objects are returned sorted in an ascending order of
the respective key names in the list. For more information about listing

REQUEST SYNTAX

GET /?list-type=2&continuation-token=ContinuationToken&delimiter=Delimiter&encoding-type=EncodingType&fetch-owner=FetchOwner&max-keys=MaxKeys&prefix=Prefix&start-after=StartAfter HTTP/1.1
Host: Bucket.s3.amazonaws.com
x-amz-request-payer: RequestPayer
x-amz-expected-bucket-owner: ExpectedBucketOwner
x-amz-optional-object-attributes: OptionalObjectAttributes



URI REQUEST PARAMETERS

The request uses the following URI parameters.

Bucket

Bucket name to list.

When using this action with an access point, you must direct requests to the
access point hostname. The access point hostname takes the form
AccessPointName-AccountId.s3-accesspoint.Region.amazonaws.com. When using this
action with an access point through the AWS SDKs, you provide the access point
ARN in place of the bucket name. For more information about access point ARNs,
see Using access points in the Amazon S3 User Guide.

When you use this action with Amazon S3 on Outposts, you must direct requests to
the S3 on Outposts hostname. The S3 on Outposts hostname takes the form
AccessPointName-AccountId.outpostID.s3-outposts.Region.amazonaws.com. When you
use this action with S3 on Outposts through the AWS SDKs, you provide the
Outposts access point ARN in place of the bucket name. For more information
about S3 on Outposts ARNs, see What is S3 on Outposts? in the Amazon S3 User
Guide.

Required: Yes

continuation-token

ContinuationToken indicates to Amazon S3 that the list is being continued on
this bucket with a token. ContinuationToken is obfuscated and is not a real key.

delimiter

A delimiter is a character that you use to group keys.

encoding-type

Encoding type used by Amazon S3 to encode object keys in the response.

Valid Values: url

fetch-owner

The owner field is not present in ListObjectsV2 by default. If you want to
return the owner field with each key in the result, then set the FetchOwner
field to true.

RESPONSE ELEMENTS

If the action is successful, the service sends back an HTTP 200 response.

The response returns the following HTTP headers.

x-amz-request-charged

If present, indicates that the requester was successfully charged for the
request.

Valid Values: requester

The following data is returned in XML format by the service.

ListBucketResult

Root level tag for the ListBucketResult parameters.

Required: Yes

CommonPrefixes

All of the keys (up to 1,000) rolled up into a common prefix count as a single
return when calculating the number of returns.

A response can contain CommonPrefixes only if you specify a delimiter.

CommonPrefixes contains all (if there are any) keys between Prefix and the next
occurrence of the string specified by a delimiter.

CommonPrefixes lists keys that act like subdirectories in the directory
specified by Prefix.

For example, if the prefix is notes/ and the delimiter is a slash (/) as in
notes/summer/july, the common prefix is notes/summer/. All of the keys that roll
up into a common prefix count as a single return when calculating the number of
returns.

Type: Array of CommonPrefix data types

Contents

Metadata about each object returned.

Type: Array of Object data types

ContinuationToken

If ContinuationToken was sent with the request, it is included in the response.

Type: String

Delimiter

Causes keys that contain the same string between the prefix and the first
occurrence of the delimiter to be rolled up into a single result element in the
CommonPrefixes collection. These rolled-up keys are not returned elsewhere in
the response. Each rolled-up result counts as only one return against the
MaxKeys value.

Type: String

EncodingType

Encoding type used by Amazon S3 to encode object key names in the XML response.

If you specify the encoding-type request parameter, Amazon S3 includes this
element in the response, and returns encoded key name values in the following
response elements:

Delimiter, Prefix, Key, and StartAfter.

Type: String

Valid Values: url

IsTruncated

Set to false if all of the results were returned. Set to true if more keys are
available to return. If the number of results exceeds that specified by MaxKeys,
all of the results might not be returned.

Type: Boolean

KeyCount

KeyCount is the number of keys returned with this request. KeyCount will always
be less than or equal to the MaxKeys field. For example, if you ask for 50 keys,
your result will include 50 keys or fewer.

Type: Integer

MaxKeys

Sets the maximum number of keys returned in the response. By default, the action
returns up to 1,000 key names. The response might contain fewer keys but will
never contain more.

Type: Integer

Name

The bucket name.

When using this action with an access point, you must direct requests to the
access point hostname. The access point hostname takes the form
AccessPointName-AccountId.s3-accesspoint.Region.amazonaws.com. When using this
action with an access point through the AWS SDKs, you provide the access point
ARN in place of the bucket name. For more information about access point ARNs,
see Using access points in the Amazon S3 User Guide.

When you use this action with Amazon S3 on Outposts, you must direct requests to
the S3 on Outposts hostname. The S3 on Outposts hostname takes the form
AccessPointName-AccountId.outpostID.s3-outposts.Region.amazonaws.com. When you
use this action with S3 on Outposts through the AWS SDKs, you provide the
Outposts access point ARN in place of the bucket name. For more information
about S3 on Outposts ARNs, see What is S3 on Outposts? in the Amazon S3 User
Guide.

Type: String

NextContinuationToken

NextContinuationToken is sent when isTruncated is true, which means there are
more keys in the bucket that can be listed. The next list requests to Amazon S3
can be continued with this NextContinuationToken. NextContinuationToken is
obfuscated and is not a real key

Type: String

Prefix

Keys that begin with the indicated prefix.

Type: String

StartAfter

If StartAfter was sent with the request, it is included in the response.

Type: String


ERRORS

NoSuchBucket

The specified bucket does not exist.

HTTP Status Code: 400

SAMPLE REQUEST: LISTING KEYS BY USING THE PREFIX AND DELIMITER PARAMETERS

This example illustrates the use of the prefix and the delimiter parameters in
the request. For this example, we assume that you have the following keys in
your bucket:

 * sample.jpg

 * photos/2006/January/sample.jpg

 * photos/2006/February/sample2.jpg

 * photos/2006/February/sample3.jpg

 * photos/2006/February/sample4.jpg

The following GET request specifies the delimiter parameter with a value of /.


GET /?list-type=2&delimiter=/ HTTP/1.1
Host: example-bucket.s3.<Region>.amazonaws.com
x-amz-date: 20160430T235931Z
Authorization: authorization string			
         


SAMPLE RESPONSE

The key sample.jpg does not contain the delimiter character, and Amazon S3
returns it in the Contents element in the response. However, all of the other
keys contain the delimiter character. Amazon S3 groups these keys and returns a
single CommonPrefixes element with the Prefix value photos/. The Prefix element
is a substring that starts at the beginning of these keys and ends at the first
occurrence of the specified delimiter.

</ListBucketResult>	
         


SAMPLE REQUEST

The following request specifies the delimiter parameter with the value /, and
the prefix parameter with the value photos/2006/.


GET /?list-type=2&prefix=photos/2006/&delimiter=/ HTTP/1.1
Host: example-bucket.s3.<Region>.amazonaws.com
x-amz-date: 20160501T000433Z
Authorization: authorization string
         


SAMPLE RESPONSE

In response, Amazon S3 returns only the keys that start with the specified
prefix. Further, Amazon S3 uses the delimiter character to group keys that
contain the same substring until the first occurrence of the delimiter character
after the specified prefix. For each such key group, Amazon S3 returns one
CommonPrefixes element in the response. The keys grouped under this
CommonPrefixes element are not returned elsewhere in the response. The Prefix
value returned in the CommonPrefixes element is a substring that starts at the
beginning of the key and ends at the first occurrence of the specified delimiter
after the prefix.

NOTE

If you created folders by using the Amazon S3 console, you will see an
additional 0-byte object with a key of photos/2006/. This object is created
because of the way that the console supports folder structures. For more
information, see Organizing objects in the Amazon S3 console using folders in
the Amazon S3 User Guide.

</ListBucketResult>
         


SAMPLE REQUEST: USING A CONTINUATION TOKEN

In this example, the initial request returns more than 1,000 keys. In response
to this request, Amazon S3 returns the IsTruncated element with the value set to
true and with a NextContinuationToken element.
