Request and response format for IBM cloud storage object S3 API


I need information related request and response format for IBM cloud storage object S3 API.I have been searching through API doc and come across that it is only supporting XML response format.Question is, does it support Json format response? if yes,it would be really grateful provide details about objects and supporting APIs for which I can get Json response.


Solution

  • The current Amazon S3 API is dated 2006-03-01. It encapsulates the metadata in XML documents, not in JSON. The IBM Cloud Object Storage service offers a common subset of the S3 API. To be compatible, that API needs to follow the Amazon S3 API which is XML-based.

    The answer to your question is that there is no JSON support, only XML.
