# tigris presign

Generate a presigned URL for temporary access to an object without credentials.

## Usage[​](#usage "Direct link to Usage")

```
tigris presign <path> [flags]

t3 presign <path> [flags]
```

Paths support the optional `t3://` (or `tigris://`) prefix (e.g. `t3://my-bucket/file.txt` or just `my-bucket/file.txt`).

If no `--access-key` is provided, the key is resolved automatically from your current credentials. OAuth users are prompted to select an access key interactively (or can pass `--access-key` explicitly).
