4.3.5.3 Access Object Storage with Pre-Authenticated Requests

Pre-authenticated requests (PAR) allow you to access a bucket or an object in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) Object Storage without having your own credentials. A pre-authenticated request is a unique URL, and anyone who has this URL can access Object Storage resources with standard HTTP tools like curl and wget.

For more information about pre-authenticated requests, see Object Storage Pre-Authenticated Requests.
