AWS AmazonS3 documentation change

Service: AmazonS3 · 2025-08-22 · Documentation low

File: AmazonS3/latest/userguide/copy-object.md

Summary

Replaced detailed Java SDK code example with a link to API reference documentation for copying objects

Security assessment

The change removes inline code implementation details and points to external API reference documentation. There is no evidence of security vulnerability fixes or security feature additions. This appears to be a routine documentation restructuring.
