N8N Tools - S3 EnhancedInstall

Overview

The node provides enhanced operations for interacting with S3-compatible object storage services. It supports a wide range of bucket and object management features, including multipart uploads, presigned URLs, bucket policies, tagging, lifecycle rules, and more.

Specifically, the Abort Multipart Upload operation allows users to cancel an ongoing multipart upload process by specifying the bucket name, object key, and the multipart upload ID. This is useful when a multipart upload is no longer needed or was started in error, helping to free up resources and avoid incomplete uploads lingering in the storage.

Common scenarios:

• Cancelling a large file upload that was interrupted or no longer required.
• Cleaning up abandoned multipart uploads to reduce storage costs.
• Managing multipart uploads programmatically as part of automated workflows.

Practical example:
You have initiated a multipart upload for a large video file but realize the file is incorrect. Using this node's Abort Multipart Upload operation, you can abort the upload by providing the bucket name, the object key, and the upload ID, effectively cancelling the upload and removing any uploaded parts.

Properties

Output

The output JSON contains the following fields:

• bucket: The name of the bucket where the multipart upload was aborted.
• key: The object key associated with the multipart upload.
• uploadId: The ID of the aborted multipart upload.
• message: A confirmation message indicating successful abortion of the multipart upload.

Example output JSON:

{
  "bucket": "my-bucket-name",
  "key": "path/to/object.ext",
  "uploadId": "example-upload-id",
  "message": "Multipart upload aborted successfully"
}

This node does not output binary data for this operation.

Dependencies

• Requires an S3-compatible service endpoint.
• Requires credentials with sufficient permissions to abort multipart uploads on the specified bucket.
• Uses AWS SDK v3 for JavaScript under the hood.
• The node expects proper configuration of credentials (access key, secret key, optional session token) and optionally region and endpoint URL.

Troubleshooting

• Invalid or missing Upload ID: Ensure the correct multipart upload ID is provided; otherwise, the abort operation will fail.
• Access Denied errors: Verify that the credentials used have permission to abort multipart uploads on the target bucket.
• Bucket or Key not found: Confirm that the bucket and object key exist and are correctly specified.
• Network or Endpoint issues: Check network connectivity and endpoint URL correctness if connection errors occur.
• Error messages from the node: The node throws errors with descriptive messages such as "S3 operation failed: [error details]". Review these messages to identify issues.
