Amazon S3 DIRECT UPLOAD
  • Hi
    I know this is a topic already explained but the previous one doesn't work for me or it is written in a bad way and I can't understand...
    Also I have 1-2 questions to do

    Firstly the question:
    1. Can uploadify upload directly to amazon s3 without uploading first to my server? I mean instead of uploading the file to my server and then post it to amazon, to directly upload the file in the bucket... Could it be done?
    2. Can the file file be uploaded directly with a new name, though? e.g. if the file chosen has a name "my_file.pdf" can it be uploaded in the bucket with name "new_name.pdf"? I don't say to upload it as my_file.pdf and then rename it using the amazon API. I say to rename the file immediately and upload it in the bucket directly with the new name....

    Just these 2 question... I hope I was clear... :)

    If these 2 questions have a positive answer, could you write a tutorial on how to do this with a "Single File Upload – Auto Start" (like in the demo page) for example?

    I think many people need these features and i find it useful for uploadify to have a nice and well explained tutorial on this...
    I found even other uploaders like swfupload to to these jobs but I like uploadify too much and I hope it could be done using it ;)

    Waiting for your answer
  • Anybody can help???

    Yes


    2. Can the file file be uploaded directly with a new name, though? e.g. if the file chosen has a name "my_file.pdf" can it be uploaded in the bucket with name "new_name.pdf"?

    Yes, I /think/ so - did you yourself try monkeying around with this setting:

    'Filename':data.Filename
