Example 3: Replacing custom metadata for an existing object

Here’s a sample PUT request that replaces the existing custom metadata for the object named hum_res/budget_proposals/BudgProp-2019 in the finance bucket with new custom metadata. The request is being made while versioning is disabled for the bucket, so the custom metadata is replaced on the current version of the object. No new version is created.

Request with s3curl command line

./s3curl.pl --id=lgreen
     --copysrc=/finance/hum_res/budget_proposals/BudgProp-2019 -- -k
     "https://finance.europe.hcp.example.com/hum_res/budget_proposals/
