Document how long presigned URLs from `Storage.getUrl()` are valid for

[gulmensedat]

Description

It works for a while without any problems, then it gives this error and doesn't shoot any images. This happens all the time in a loop. It works fine for half an hour and gives this error for half an hour.

Steps to Reproduce

final UploadFileResult result = await Amplify.Storage.uploadFile(
          local: File(imgFile.path),
          key: '$imgPath.jpg',
          options: S3UploadFileOptions(
            metadata: metadata,
            accessLevel: StorageAccessLevel.guest,
          ));

static Future<GetUrlResult> getUrlFile(String fileKey, {S3GetUrlOptions options}) async {
    try {
      final result = await Amplify.Storage.getUrl(
        key: fileKey,
        options: options,
      );

     // print('image url: ${result.url}');
      return result;
    } on StorageException catch (e) {
      print('error down file: $e');
    }
  }

Thanks for your response here @dorontal

@gulmensedat can you also verify what storage access levels you've configured in your S3 bucket? When setting up with Amplify CLI did you follow the instructions listed here? => https://docs.amplify.aws/lib/storage/getting-started/q/platform/flutter/#provision-backend-storage

[fjnoyp]

Hi @gulmensedat any updates here?

[gulmensedat]

Hi @gulmensedat any updates here?

Using Streambuilder instead of Futurebuilder, I show the link of the image with CachedNetworkImage from my database, in case of an error with errorWidget, I send a request to refresh the link using the key address. That way I don't get this error. I have a problem when I use the above with FutureBuilder. As far as I understand, it is necessary to send a request with a key and download the image link.

[fjnoyp]

Hi @gulmensedat thank you for the followup. The problem you encountered might not be related to Streambuilder vs. Futurebuilder but to the fact that Storage.getUrl returns a presigned url from s3 which is only valid from 0-60 minutes. Not aware that this can be configured unfortunately.

Your fix seems to be a good way forward, as making a new request will refresh the link and get a new presigned url.

We'll update the docs to make this behavior more clear. Thanks for taking the time to create this issue and share your process to resolution.
