I'm having the darndest time trying to figure this out. I'm new to AWS and all I want to do is download files that this guy put up behind a paywall. Willing to pay the fees but I can't for the life of me figure out how to configure this GET request (using Linux Mint 16 if it helps).

http://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/latest/dev/ObjectsinRequesterPaysBuckets.html

First question...where the hell am I entering this GET request? I'm in AWS Console and I don't see anywhere to input...

it's easiest to do this with the aws unified cli or some other amazon provided interface to automatically author the GET request for you. if you're using windows a tool like cloudberry explorer is excellent for 1 off or small scale stuff. there's an s3 explorer addon for firefox that works as well and elasticwolf that's multiplatform.

^^ thanks for replying but I believe both of those are outdated when it comes to "requester pays" features. I couldn't get them to work, trying with the AWS CLI

are you using the new unified cli? it's not outdated

i mean the 3rd party options you named

I ended up going with s3cmd with a custom patch since my distro's repository only has an older version that doesn't support "requester pays"
