Behavior

S3 Compatibility

The mc commandline tool is built for compatibility with the AWS S3 API and is tested with MinIO and AWS S3 for expected functionality and behavior.

MinIO provides no guarantees for other S3-compatible services, as their S3 API implementation is unknown and therefore unsupported. While mc commands may work as documented, any such usage is at your own risk.

Examples

Create a new access-key pair for the authenticated user

The following command creates a new access key pair to use with the currently authenticated user on the minio alias. The command outputs a randomly generated access key and secret key.

mc idp ldap accesskey create minio

Create a new access-key pair with a custom access key and secret key

The following command creates a new access key pair with both an access key and secret key that you specify for the user currently authenticated on the minio alias.

mc idp ldap accesskey create minio/ --access-key my-access-key-change-me --secret-key my-secret-key-change-me

Create a new access-key pair that expires after 24 hours

The following command creates a new access key pair to use with the currently authenticated user on the minio alias. The credentials expire after 24 hours.

The command outputs a randomly generated access key and secret key.
