I knew parse server about 8 years ago. I didn’t start look into it until a couple of days ago.
I did some research, but didn’t find any documentation or article that shows how to directly upload files from, say, an iOS mobile app to an S3 compatible service using a pre-signed URL.
I happened to see this post from 2017 on Github. FEATURE REQUEST: Support for direct uploading of files to S3 · Issue #3530 · parse-community/parse-server · GitHub
Not sure what the intent of the original author is. However, that sounds similar to what I’m looking for.
I found this related doc from AWS S3: Work with Amazon S3 pre-signed URLs - AWS SDK for Java 2.x
