How to format a URL to get a file from Amazon S3?

Question

I am having some trouble figuring out how to access a file from Amazon S3. Lets say that the bucket that the file lives in is BUCKET_NAME, the file is FIL

Answer 1

Perhaps not what the OP was after, but for those searching the URL to simply access a readable object on S3 is more like:

https://.amazonaws.com//

Where is something like s3-ap-southeast-2.

Click on the item in the S3 GUI to get the link for your bucket.
