Unsupported S3 Bucket APIs

MinIO does not support the following API calls available in S3. These APIs are either redundant or only provide functionality within AWS S3.

  • BucketACL, ObjectACL (use Policies <minio-policy>)
  • BucketCORS (CORS enabled by default on all buckets for all HTTP verbs)
  • BucketWebsite (use caddy or nginx)
  • BucketAnalytics, BucketMetrics, BucketLogging (use Bucket Notifications <minio-bucket-notifications>)
  • BucketRequestPayment

Object Name Limitations

Filesystem and Operating System Restrictions

Object Names in MinIO are restricted primarily by the local operating system and filesystem. Windows and some other operating systems restrict file systems with certain special characters, such as ^, *, |, \, /, &, ", or ;.

The above list is not exhaustive and may not apply to your operating system and filesystem combination.

Consult your operating system vendor or filesystem documentation for a comprehensive list for your situation.

MinIO recommends using LInux operating system with an XFS based filesystem for production workloads.

Conflicting Objects

Objects cannot have a conflicting object as its parent. Applications must assign non-conflicting, unique keys.

MinIO does not support a situation where an object's name is also the name of the prefix for a child object. For the following example operations, the second PUT operation fails because of a naming conflict with the object created by the first.

PUT <bucketname>/a/b/1.txt
PUT <bucketname>/a/b
PUT <bucketname>/a/b
PUT <bucketname>/a/b/1.txt
