Copy an Object Using the AWS SDK for Java

Example
The following example shows how to copy an object in Amazon S3 using the AWS SDK for Java. For instructions on creating and testing a working sample, see Testing the Amazon S3 Java Code Examples.

import com.amazonaws.AmazonServiceException;

import com.amazonaws.SdkClientException;

import com.amazonaws.auth.profile.ProfileCredentialsProvider;

import com.amazonaws.regions.Regions;

import com.amazonaws.services.s3.AmazonS3;

import com.amazonaws.services.s3.AmazonS3ClientBuilder;

import com.amazonaws.services.s3.model.CopyObjectRequest;

import java.io.IOException;

public class CopyObjectSingleOperation {

public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {

Regions clientRegion = Regions.DEFAULT_REGION;

String bucketName = "*** Bucket name ***";

String sourceKey = "*** Source object key *** ";

String destinationKey = "*** Destination object key ***";

try {

AmazonS3 s3Client = AmazonS3ClientBuilder.standard()

.withCredentials(new ProfileCredentialsProvider())

.withRegion(clientRegion)

.build();

// Copy the object into a new object in the same bucket.

CopyObjectRequest copyObjRequest = new CopyObjectRequest(bucketName, sourceKey, bucketName, destinationKey);

s3Client.copyObject(copyObjRequest);

} catch (AmazonServiceException e) {

// The call was transmitted successfully, but Amazon S3 couldn't process

// it, so it returned an error response.

e.printStackTrace();

} catch (SdkClientException e) {

// Amazon S3 couldn't be contacted for a response, or the client

// couldn't parse the response from Amazon S3.

e.printStackTrace();

}

}
