    Is it possible to lock the permissions for exported objects to domain level access so that the domain has the ability to pull the image files for example, but they cannot be linked to individually by an outside site.

    Sorry @ghosted, it’s not possible.

    Could be possible if you use a load-balancer/proxy server.

    thanks, @alimuzzamanalim for the reply, how do you mean with the proxy? I’m currently running through Cloudflare, would that be sufficient?

    Any documentation you know of I could use?

    The feature you are looking for is called Hotlink Protection.

    You can search google or youtube for how to.

    okay but this wouldn’t prevent hotlinking directly from the bucket because the link generated is public, so they could bypass the Cloudflare hotlink blocker because the image isn’t hosted on the site correct?
