Hey Guys!!!

AWS was always a mystery for me when I started coding. At first, I thought Amazon is only meant for doing E-commerce stuff. But then I got to know about AWS and the ease its services are creating for the people like us (beginners). Currently working as a Lead Front End Developer at #Doc2ship, I got to know more about the AWS S3 bucket.

Let me tell a high profile secret to starters:

Excited?🤩

S3 = Simple Storage Service

Just kidding 😂, I know it's not a secret. Let's proceed further, working with AWS services is very easy until you mess up with configuration, policies, or, permissions. I have used AWS with React from a tutorial, and some bugs and errors arrived but somehow with the help of StackOverflow and my mentor Sir Owais Raza, I developed code for storing files in the AWS S3 bucket.

But there was a problem 😐😐

Problem:-

The problem is, that I was using the Lambda function of AWS and getting the pre-signed URL from AWS API getaway. I wanted to store my files in the folder of the User’s name and files with their original name.
Well, this was my first experience with the AWS S3 bucket. Share yours if you faced something similar.

Thank you for reading

NOTE : Please answer the problem, if you have any solution.
