Functions

For details, see OPTIONS Bucket.

Differences Between OPTIONS Bucket and OPTIONS Object

With the OPTIONS Object, you need to specify an object name in the URL, but an object name is not required with the OPTIONS Bucket, which uses the bucket domain name as the URL. The request lines of the two methods are as follows:

OPTIONS /object HTTP/1.1
OPTIONS / HTTP/1.1
