Known limitations
Gateway inherits the following B2 limitations:
- No support for CopyObject S3 API (There are no equivalent APIs available on Backblaze B2).
- No support for CopyObjectPart S3 API (There are no equivalent APIs available on Backblaze B2).
- Only read-only bucket policy supported at bucket level, all other variations will return API Notimplemented error.
- DeleteObject() might not delete the object right away on Backblaze B2, so you might see the object immediately after a Delete request.
Other limitations:
- Bucket notification APIs are not supported.
