Retrieving metadata from AWS S3 bucket objects

For Retrieving metadata from AWS S3 bucket objects. We use head objects method by the help of boto3 package in python programming.

For listing the object contents we use

client.head_objects(Bucket=”Bucket_Name”)['Contents']

For getting all the metadata of a particular object we use

client.head_object(Bucket=”Bucket_name”,Key=”Object_Name”)


Here are some examples for retrieving some metadata contents, for some list of objects in AWS S3 bucket.
