Spaces API Reference Documentation

Spaces provides a RESTful XML API for programmatically managing the data you store through standard HTTP requests. The API is interoperable with Amazon’s AWS S3 API, allowing you to interact with the service with any S3-compatible tools.

Spaces and Spaces CDN supports HTTP/2 and HTTP/1.1 clients. Any HTTP/2 conformant client receives HTTP/2 responses, otherwise HTTP/1.1 responses are returned. Some HTTP/2 requests are downgraded to HTTP/1.1 for operational reasons, as permitted by the HTTP/2 specification.

You can use the Spaces API in the following ways:

AWS S3 Compatibility

For the full list of supported S3 API commands, see Supported S3 Commands.

The Spaces API aims to be interoperable with Amazon’s AWS S3 API. In most cases, when using a client library, setting the endpoint or base URL to ${REGION}.digitaloceanspaces.com and generating a Spaces key pair to replace your AWS IAM key pair allows you to use Spaces in place of S3.

Spaces provides support for create, read, update, and delete (CRUD) operations for both buckets (Spaces) and objects as well as the ability to define access control lists (ACLs). Some S3 features are not supported as show in the table below:

Feature Supported Notes
Bucket CRUD Yes
Object CRUD Yes

API requests for S3 functionality that is not supported by Spaces receive an S3-compatible, XML-formatted NotImplemented error response.

The AWS S3 API is compatible with JavaScript, Go, PHP, Python 3, and Ruby. For example, the following code returns a list of Spaces (or buckets) in your specified region:

package main

import (
    "fmt"
    "log"
    "os"

    "github.com/minio/minio-go"
)

func main() {
    accessKey := os.Getenv("SPACES_KEY")
    secKey := os.Getenv("SPACES_SECRET")
    endpoint := "nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com"
    spaceName := "my-new-space" // Space names must be globally unique
    ssl := true

    // Initiate a client using DigitalOcean Spaces.
    client, err := minio.New(endpoint, accessKey, secKey, ssl)
    if err != nil {
        log.Fatal(err)
    }

    // Create a new Space.
    err = client.MakeBucket(spaceName, "us-east-1")
    if err != nil {
        log.Fatal(err)
    }

    // List all Spaces.
    spaces, err := client.ListBuckets()
    if err != nil {
        log.Fatal(err)
    }
    for _, space := range spaces {
        fmt.Println(space.Name)
    }
}```

“Hello, World!” Program

After creating a new Space, you can upload a “Hello, World!” object to it:

// Step 1: Import the S3Client object and all necessary SDK commands.
import { PutObjectCommand, S3Client } from '@aws-sdk/client-s3';


// Step 2: The s3Client function validates your request and directs it to your Space's specified endpoint using the AWS SDK.
const s3Client = new S3Client({
    endpoint: "https://nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com", // Find your endpoint in the control panel, under Settings. Prepend "https://".
    forcePathStyle: false, // Configures to use subdomain/virtual calling format.
    region: "us-east-1", // Must be "us-east-1" when creating new Spaces. Otherwise, use the region in your endpoint (for example, nyc3).
    credentials: {
      accessKeyId: "C58A976M583E23R1O00N", // Access key pair. You can create access key pairs using the control panel or API.
      secretAccessKey: process.env.SPACES_SECRET // Secret access key defined through an environment variable.
    }
});


// Step 3: Define the parameters for the object you want to upload.
const params = {
  Bucket: "example-space", // The path to the directory you want to upload the object to, starting with your Space name.
  Key: "folder-path/hello-world.txt", // Object key, referenced whenever you want to access this file later.
  Body: "Hello, World!", // The object's contents. This variable is an object, not a string.
  ACL: "private", // Defines ACL permissions, such as private or public.
  Metadata: { // Defines metadata tags.
    "x-amz-meta-my-key": "your-value"
  }
};


// Step 4: Define a function that uploads your object using SDK's PutObjectCommand object and catches any errors.
const uploadObject = async () => {
  try {
    const data = await s3Client.send(new PutObjectCommand(params));
    console.log(
      "Successfully uploaded object: " +
        params.Bucket +

Authentication

Requests to the Spaces API must include an HTTP Authorization header. The AWS v4 Signature type is supported as well as the AWS v2 Signature type for compatibility with older clients. Throughout the examples below, v4 signatures are used. When making use of a client library, signatures are generated for you automatically.

You can generate the needed Access Key and Secret Key by visiting the API section of the DigitalOcean Control Panel for your account.

A v4 signature consists of several parts. The table below describes each piece of the example individually:

Signature component Description
AWS4-HMAC-SHA256 Indicates AWS Signature Version 4 (AWS4) and the signing algorithm (HMAC-SHA256).
Credential Contains your access key and information about the request in the format: ${ACCESS_KEY}/${YYYMMDD}/${REGION_SLUG}/s3/aws4_request
SignedHeaders A lower-cased list of the names of the request headers used when computing the signature. (for example, host;x-amz-acl;x-amz-content-sha256;x-amz-date)
Signature A signed hash consisting of a hash of the request body, your secret key, and information about the request (that is, the canonical request). A “pseudo-code” example is provided to demonstrate how this is calculated.

The canonical request included in the signature is made up of:

  • The HTTP request method used.
  • The path component of the request URI.
  • The query string parameters included in the request.
  • The list of request headers and their values, newline separated, lower-cased, and trimmed of whitespace.
  • The list of header names without their values, sorted alphabetically, lower-cased, and semicolon-separated.
  • The SHA256 hash of the request body.

For example, for the following request:

GET /?acl HTTP/1.1

Host: static-images.nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com
x-amz-content-sha256: e3b0c44298fc1c149afbf4c8996fb92427ae41e4649b934ca495991b7852b855
x-amz-date: 20170804T221549Z

This would be the canonical request:

GET
/
acl=
host:static-images.nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com
x-amz-content-sha256:e3b0c44298fc1c149afbf4c8996fb92427ae41e4649b934ca495991b7852b855
x-amz-date:20170804T221549Z

host;x-amz-content-sha256;x-amz-date
e3b0c44298fc1c149afbf4c8996fb92427ae41e4649b934ca495991b7852b855

Example Authorization Header

Authorization: AWS4-HMAC-SHA256
Credential=II5JDQBAN3JYM4DNEB6C/20170710/nyc3/s3/aws4_request,
SignedHeaders=host;x-amz-acl;x-amz-content-sha256;x-amz-date,
Signature=6cab03bef74a80a0441ab7fd33c829a2cdb46bba07e82da518cdb78ac238fda5

Signing Example (pseudo-code)

canonicalRequest = `
${HTTPMethod}\n
${canonicalURI}\n
${canonicalQueryString}\n
${canonicalHeaders}\n
${signedHeaders}\n
${hashedPayload}
`

stringToSign = "AWS4-HMAC-SHA256" + "\n" +
    date(format=ISO08601) + "\n" +
    date(format=YYYYMMDD) + "/" + ${REGION} + "/" + "s3/aws4_request" + "\n" +
    Hex(SHA256Hash(canonicalRequest))

dateKey = HMAC-SHA256("AWS4" + ${SECRET_KEY}, date(format=YYYYMMDD))
dateRegionKey = HMAC-SHA256(dateKey, ${REGION})
dateRegionServiceKey = HMAC-SHA256(dateRegionKey, "s3")
signingKey = HMAC-SHA256(dateRegionServiceKey, "aws4_request")

signature = Hex(HMAC-SHA256(signingKey, stringToSign))

Access Control Lists (ACLs)

Spaces supports a limited set of access controls for buckets and objects. They can be configured by making a PUT request with an XML body consisting of an AccessControlPolicy element. It should contain both Grantee and Permission elements. Grantee may either contain the owner’s ID or a URI element representing the AllUsers group. The available Permission values are:

Name Description
FULL_CONTROL Grants full access including read and write permissions to the object or bucket.
READ Grants read access to the object or bucket.

To make a bucket or object private, create an AccessControlPolicy only containing a FULL_CONTROL grant for the owner. To allow public read access, the AccessControlPolicy should contain both a FULL_CONTROL grant for the owner as well as READ grand for the AllUsers group. (See the full reference documentation below for more information on the specific requests.)

For convenience, you can use canned ACLs in place of uploading an AccessControlPolicy. They are a set of pre-defined access controls that can be specified through the use of the x-amz-acl header when making a request. Currently Spaces supports these values:

Name Description
private Grants full access (FULL_CONTROL) to the owner. No unauthenticated, public access is permitted.
public-read Grants full access (FULL_CONTROL) to the owner while permitting unauthenticated, public READ access.

Private ACL Example

<AccessControlPolicy xmlns="http://s3.amazonaws.com/doc/2006-03-01/">
  <Owner>
    <ID>6174283</ID>
  </Owner>
  <AccessControlList>
    <Grant>
      <Grantee xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:type="CanonicalUser">
        <ID>6174283</ID>
      </Grantee>
      <Permission>FULL_CONTROL</Permission>
    </Grant>
  </AccessControlList>
</AccessControlPolicy>

Public Read ACL Example

<AccessControlPolicy xmlns="http://s3.amazonaws.com/doc/2006-03-01/">
  <Owner>
    <ID>6174283</ID>
    <DisplayName>6174283</DisplayName>

      </Grantee>
      <Permission>READ</Permission>
    </Grant>
    <Grant>
      <Grantee xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:type="CanonicalUser">

      </Grantee>
      <Permission>FULL_CONTROL</Permission>
    </Grant>
  </AccessControlList>
</AccessControlPolicy>

Common Headers

There are a number of common headers that may be used in most requests.

Name Description
Authorization The authorization details for the request in either the AWS Signature Version 4 or AWS Signature Version 2 format (see Authentication for more information).
Content-Length The length in bytes of the request body. Required with PUT requests containing an XML body.
Content-Type The MIME type of the request body (for example, text/plain).
Date The current date and time date in Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) using RFC 2822 format. Example: Mon, 10 Jul 2017 19:05:09 +0000
Host The target host for the request (for example, ${REGION}.digitaloceanspaces.com or ${BUCKET}.${REGION}.digitaloceanspaces.com).
x-amz-content-sha256 The SHA256 hash of the request payload. Required when using AWS Signature Version 4 for authentication.
x-amz-date The current date and time date in Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) using the ISO 8601 format: %Y%m%dT%H%M%SZ (for example, 20170803T172753Z). When provided, it takes precedence over the “Date” header.

Likewise, these common headers may be received in most responses:

Name Description
Content-Length The length in bytes of the response body.
Content-Type The MIME type of the request body (for example, text/plain).
Connection An indicator of whether the connection to the server is open or closed.
Date The date and time date of the response in Coordinated Universal Time (UTC).
ETag The entity tag containing an MD5 hash of the object.
x-amz-request-id The unique identifier for the request.

Bucket Operations

A bucket is a container for objects, such as image files and other data, that are stored in DigitalOcean Spaces. The following methods allow you to create, delete, and manage buckets.

Create a Bucket

To create a new bucket, send a PUT request to ${BUCKET}.${REGION}.digitaloceanspaces.com

In addition to the common headers, the following headers may also be supplied:

Name Description Required
x-amz-acl A “canned” ACL specifying access rules for the bucket (for example, private or public-read). Defaults to private No

For compatibility purposes, the body of the request may contain an XML object with an element named CreateBucketConfiguration containing configuration information for the bucket, specifically its location. As the region is also specified in the hostname, including this in the request is not strictly necessary.

Name Description Required
LocationConstraint The region where the bucket will be created (for example, nyc3). No

Example Request

PUT / HTTP/1.1

Host: static-images.nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com
x-amz-acl: public-read
x-amz-content-sha256: c6f1fc479f5f690c443b73a258aacc06ddad09eca0b001e9640ff2cd56fe5710

List All Buckets

To list all existing buckets in a region, send a GET request to ${REGION}.digitaloceanspaces.com

The body of the response contains an XML element named ListAllMyBucketsResult containing a list of XML objects with the following elements representing each bucket:

Name Description
Owner A container holding elements with information about the bucket’s owner.
ID An element containing the ID of the bucket’s owner as its value.
DisplayName An element containing the DisplayName of the bucket’s owner as its value. Provided for compatibility purposes, has the same value as the ID.
Buckets A container holding a list of elements describing each bucket.
Bucket A container holding elements with details about a single bucket.
Name An element containing the name of the bucket.
CreationDate An element containing the date of the bucket’s creation in the format: %Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%S.%3NZ (for example, 2017-06-23T18:37:48.157Z)

List a Bucket’s Contents

To list the contents of a bucket, send a GET request to ${BUCKET}.${REGION}.digitaloceanspaces.com/

Note
The version 2 list type is not currently supported.

The following query parameters can be included in the request in order to filter the results included in the response:

Name Description Required
delimiter A single character used to group keys. When specified, the response will only contain keys up to its first occurrence. (for example, using a slash as the delimiter can allow you to list keys as if they were folders, especially in combination with a prefix.) No
marker The key (object name) to start with when listing objects. For use with pagination (for example, when then number of objects in the result exceeds the specified max-keys). No
max-keys The maximum number of objects to return. Valid inputs of 0 to 1,000 inclusive. No
prefix A string used to group keys. When specified, the response only contains objects with keys beginning with the string. No

The body of the response contains an XML element named ListBucketResult containing a list of XML objects with the following elements representing each object in the bucket:

Name | Description Name | The name of the bucket. Prefix | The specified prefix if supplied as a query parameter. Marker | A key denoting where the list of objects begins. If empty, this indicates the beginning of the list. NextMarker | Specifies the key which should be used with the maker query parameter in subsistent requests. This is only returned if a delimiter was provided with the request and IsTruncated is true. MaxKeys | The maximum number of objects to return, based on max-keys query parameter after input validation. IsTruncated | A boolean indicating whether all objects are included in the response. Contents | A container holding elements with information about the objects in the bucket. Key | The object’s key. LastModified | The date and time that the object was last modified in the format: %Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%S.%3NZ (for example, 2017-06-23T18:37:48.157Z) ETag | The entity tag containing an MD5 hash of the object. Size | The size of the object in bytes. StorageClass | Provided for compatibility purposes. The value is always STANDARD. Owner | A container holding elements with information about the bucket’s owner. ID | An element containing the ID of the bucket’s owner as its value. DisplayName | An element containing the DisplayName of the bucket’s owner as its value. Provided for compatibility purposes, has the same value as the ID.

Configure a Bucket’s Lifecycle Rules

Lifecycle rules can be used to perform different actions on objects in a Space over the course of their “life.” For example, a Space may be configured so that objects in it expire and are automatically deleted after a certain length of time. Lifecycle rules based on tagging are not supported.

Warning
A lifecycle rule that deletes a large amount of objects can take hours or days to finish running. During this process, you are still billed for any objects that have not been deleted yet. To delete objects faster, use the S3 DeleteObject or DeleteObjects commands.

In order to configure new lifecycle rules, send a PUT request to ${BUCKET}.${REGION}.digitaloceanspaces.com/?lifecycle

The body of the request should include an XML element named LifecycleConfiguration containing a list of Rule objects.

Name Description Required
Rule A container holding elements with information about a singe lifecycle rule. Yes
ID A unique string identifying the rule. It may contain up to 255 characters including spaces. Yes
Status A string that specifies whether or not the lifecycle rule will be acted upon. The only valid values are Enabled or Disabled. Yes
Prefix A string specifying the objects to which the rule will be applied. When provided, only objects whose keys begin with the prefix will be acted upon. If empty or not present, all object in the Space will be affected. No
Expiration When present, matching objects are expired and automatically deleted. This container must specify either a Date or Days element. No
Days An integer specifying the number of days after an object’s creation until the rule takes effect. No
Date A date in ISO 8601 format specifying the day that the rule takes effect. The action will be run at midnight UTC. No
AbortIncompleteMultipartUpload When present, incomplete multipart uploads of matching objects will be removed. This container must specify a DaysAfterInitiation element. No
DaysAfterInitiation An integer specifying the number of days after an incomplete multipart upload was initiated until the rule takes effect. No
