Returns metadata about all versions of the objects in a bucket. You can also use request parameters as selection criteria to return metadata about a subset of all the object versions.

To use this operation, you must have permissions to perform the s3:ListBucketVersions action. Be aware of the name difference.

A 200 OK response can contain valid or invalid XML. Make sure to design your application to parse the contents of the response and handle it appropriately.

To use this operation, you must have READ access to the bucket.

This action is not supported by Amazon S3 on Outposts.

The following operations are related to ListObjectVersions:

get/{Bucket}#versions

Path parameters

Bucketstring required

The bucket name that contains the objects.

Query parameters

delimiterstring

A delimiter is a character that you specify to group keys. All keys that contain the same string between the <code>prefix</code> and the first occurrence of the delimiter are grouped under a single result element in CommonPrefixes. These groups are counted as one result against the max-keys limitation. These keys are not returned elsewhere in the response.

encoding-type'url'

Requests Amazon S3 to encode the object keys in the response and specifies the encoding method to use. An object key may contain any Unicode character; however, XML 1.0 parser cannot parse some characters, such as characters with an ASCII value from 0 to 10. For characters that are not supported in XML 1.0, you can add this parameter to request that Amazon S3 encode the keys in the response.

key-markerstring

Specifies the key to start with when listing objects in a bucket.

max-keysinteger

Sets the maximum number of keys returned in the response. By default the action returns up to 1,000 key names. The response might contain fewer keys but will never contain more. If additional keys satisfy the search criteria, but were not returned because max-keys was exceeded, the response contains <isTruncated>true</isTruncated>. To return the additional keys, see key-marker and version-id-marker.

prefixstring

Use this parameter to select only those keys that begin with the specified prefix. You can use prefixes to separate a bucket into different groupings of keys. (You can think of using prefix to make groups in the same way you'd use a folder in a file system.) You can use prefix with delimiter to roll up numerous objects into a single result under CommonPrefixes.

version-id-markerstring

Specifies the object version you want to start listing from.

MaxKeysstring

Pagination limit

KeyMarkerstring

Pagination token

VersionIdMarkerstring

Pagination token

versionstrue required

Headers

x-amz-expected-bucket-ownerstring

The account ID of the expected bucket owner. If the bucket is owned by a different account, the request fails with the HTTP status code <code>403 Forbidden</code> (access denied).

Response

Success
