Signed URLs

[Rodolfo]

💡Describe your Feature request

A signed URL is a URL that provides limited access to make a request. Signed URLs contain authentication information in their query string, allowing users without credentials to perform specific actions on a resource.

Chevereto could sign URLs, enabling privacy and role based access to content. For example, an user sharing private content wich expires on first view, implement a paywall to access files, etc. It provides endless options as it is the application which signs the URLs, we could use any app-driven!

👏Where did you saw this?

Google does this stuff and I want to steal it.

🔥Interest outside our community

I don't care, I will do it anyway.

I was wondering when will this be developed? Any thoughts?

@Jesse Since I posted this RFC, the availability of pre-signed URLs has become pretty much baseline on storage providers. We can now generate these URLs in bulk and locally without round robin to the storage server.

Need to check the SDK situation now, hope to get good news.
