Answer 1

You actually can do a copy with a presigned URL. To do this, you need to create a presigned PUT request that also includes a header like x-amz-copy-source: /sourceBucket/sourceObject in order to specify where you are copying from. In addition, if you want the copied object to have new metadata, you will also need to add the header x-amz-metadata-directive: REPLACE. See the REST API documentation for more details.
