Python Boto3 update/overwrite object in S3 bucket

Question

I can't find Python source code example to update/overwrite an object in an Amazon S3 Bucket.

Is this possible?

Answer 1

From the docs: https://boto3.amazonaws.com/v1/documentation/api/latest/reference/services/s3.html#S3.Client.put_object

If you want to overwrite the object you just upload the file with the same name and if that name already exists it'll be done automatically.

Extra note: If you want to keep all historic versions of the object enable versioning on the bucket.
