Admin Operations
An admin API request will be done on a URI that starts with the configurable ‘admin’ resource entry point. Authorization for the admin API duplicates the S3 authorization mechanism. Some operations require that the user holds special administrative capabilities. The response entity type (XML or JSON) may be specified as the ‘format’ option in the request and defaults to JSON if not specified.
