Dim http As Chilkat.Http
Set http = Chilkat.NewHttp

' Insert your access key here:
http.AwsAccessKey = "AWS_ACCESS_KEY"

' Insert your secret key here:
http.AwsSecretKey = "AWS_SECRET_KEY"

' Set the AwsEndpoint to your S3 compatible storage provider
' This example uses basefarm.net
http.AwsEndpoint = "basefarm.bf.object.osl.basefarm.net"


xmlStr = http.S3_ListBuckets()

If (http.LastMethodSuccess <> True) Then
    ' Failed
    Debug.Print http.LastErrorText
Else
    ' Success.  Show the XML response.  (Use the online tool at the link below to generate parsing code.)
    Debug.Print xmlStr
End If
