    AWS SAA-C03 · Question 19 · Domain 1.1: Secure Access

    A company wants to allow external users to upload large video files directly to an Amazon S3 bucket without requiring AWS credentials. The upload URL should expire after 1 hour. Which TWO actions should the solutions architect take? (Select TWO.)

    Answer options:

    A.

    Generate an S3 presigned URL for the PUT operation with a 1-hour expiration.

    B.

    Create an IAM user for each external user.

    C.

    Configure Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (CORS) on the S3 bucket.

    D.

    Make the S3 bucket public.

    E.

    Use AWS Transfer Family to create an SFTP endpoint.

    How to approach this question

    Identify the need for temporary, credential-less access (Presigned URL) and browser-based uploads (CORS).

    Full Answer

    S3 presigned URLs allow you to grant temporary, time-limited access to upload objects without providing AWS credentials. If the upload happens via a web browser, CORS must be configured on the bucket to allow the cross-origin request.

    Common mistakes

    Forgetting that CORS is required for direct-to-S3 browser uploads.
