completeMultipartUpload
Completes a multipart upload by assembling previously uploaded parts.
You first initiate the multipart upload and then upload all parts using the UploadPart operation or the UploadPartCopy operation. After successfully uploading all relevant parts of an upload, you call this CompleteMultipartUpload
operation to complete the upload. Upon receiving this request, Amazon S3 concatenates all the parts in ascending order by part number to create a new object. In the CompleteMultipartUpload request, you must provide the parts list and ensure that the parts list is complete. The CompleteMultipartUpload API operation concatenates the parts that you provide in the list. For each part in the list, you must provide the PartNumber
value and the ETag
value that are returned after that part was uploaded.
The processing of a CompleteMultipartUpload request could take several minutes to finalize. After Amazon S3 begins processing the request, it sends an HTTP response header that specifies a 200 OK
response. While processing is in progress, Amazon S3 periodically sends white space characters to keep the connection from timing out. A request could fail after the initial 200 OK
response has been sent. This means that a 200 OK
response can contain either a success or an error. The error response might be embedded in the 200 OK
response. If you call this API operation directly, make sure to design your application to parse the contents of the response and handle it appropriately. If you use Amazon Web Services SDKs, SDKs handle this condition. The SDKs detect the embedded error and apply error handling per your configuration settings (including automatically retrying the request as appropriate). If the condition persists, the SDKs throw an exception (or, for the SDKs that don't use exceptions, they return an error).
Note that if CompleteMultipartUpload
fails, applications should be prepared to retry the failed requests. For more information, see Amazon S3 Error Best Practices.
You can't use Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded
for the CompleteMultipartUpload requests. Also, if you don't provide a Content-Type
header, CompleteMultipartUpload
can still return a 200 OK
response.

Directory buckets - For directory buckets, you must make requests for this API operation to the Zonal endpoint. These endpoints support virtual-hosted-style requests in the format https://<i>bucket_name</i>.s3express-<i>az_id</i>.<i>region</i>.amazonaws.com/<i>key-name</i>
. Path-style requests are not supported. For more information, see Regional and Zonal endpoints in the Amazon S3 User Guide.
Permissions
General purpose bucket permissions - For information about permissions required to use the multipart upload API, see Multipart Upload and Permissions in the Amazon S3 User Guide.
Directory bucket permissions - To grant access to this API operation on a directory bucket, we recommend that you use the
CreateSession
API operation for session-based authorization. Specifically, you grant thes3express:CreateSession
permission to the directory bucket in a bucket policy or an IAM identity-based policy. Then, you make theCreateSession
API call on the bucket to obtain a session token. With the session token in your request header, you can make API requests to this operation. After the session token expires, you make anotherCreateSession
API call to generate a new session token for use. Amazon Web Services CLI or SDKs create session and refresh the session token automatically to avoid service interruptions when a session expires. For more information about authorization, seeCreateSession
.
Special errors
Error Code:
EntityTooSmall
Description: Your proposed upload is smaller than the minimum allowed object size. Each part must be at least 5 MB in size, except the last part.
HTTP Status Code: 400 Bad Request
Error Code:
InvalidPart
Description: One or more of the specified parts could not be found. The part might not have been uploaded, or the specified ETag might not have matched the uploaded part's ETag.
HTTP Status Code: 400 Bad Request
Error Code:
InvalidPartOrder
Description: The list of parts was not in ascending order. The parts list must be specified in order by part number.
HTTP Status Code: 400 Bad Request
Error Code:
NoSuchUpload
Description: The specified multipart upload does not exist. The upload ID might be invalid, or the multipart upload might have been aborted or completed.
HTTP Status Code: 404 Not Found
