AWS Presigned URL valid for more than 7 days

Question

Just wanted to know is there a way to use AWS S3 Presigned URL for more than 7 Days using V4 of Presigned URL.

Answer 1

Upto 7 days - Yes

More than 7 days - NO

It is important to know the max expiration time differs with different ways which creates pre-signed URL

• Using s3 console - max 12 hours
• AWS explorer for Visual Studio - max 7 days
• AWS SDK - max 7 days
• AWS CLI - max 7 days

Docs for reference

It becomes essential to understand that presigned URLs are used for limited time access, not long durations. In a broader scope, you are giving access to your bucket to some external identity why would you give access to some external identity that too for so long?

Answer 2

No unfortunately.

The current maximum expiration time for a presigned URL - which is a hard limit & cannot be increased - is 7 days from the time of creation.
