Is there a way to check the region of an S3Client through the AWS Java SDK v2?

I am migrating / upgrading a project from Java SDK v1 to Java SDK v2.

One of the functions needed for the project auto-detects the region and saves it.

And as an error checking measure after setting the region it calls getRegionName() on the AmazonS3Client.

In v2 of the SDK, AmazonS3Client is replaced with S3Client. As far as I can tell, there is no getRegionName. Any ideas what I could use instead?

Solution

  • In S3Client Java SDK v2 there is getBucketLocation function that returns the region bucket resides in.

    You can also find more info in the official docs.
