"Working with Services" in the Getting Started Guide link is broken

[mriedem]

The link in the docs under params here https://ibm.github.io/ibm-cos-sdk-js/AWS/S3.html#constructor-property links to https://ibm.github.io/AWSJavaScriptSDK/guide/node-services.html#Bound_Parameters which does not exist.

My guess is that should be linking to something like what's in https://docs.aws.amazon.com/sdk-for-javascript/v2/developer-guide/.

I can't assign this myself but I can see that services bound to buckets no longer need the bucket parameter spelled out.

The closed analogue for describing the intended behavior is: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/sdk-for-javascript/v2/developer-guide/creating-and-calling-service-objects.html#specifying-service-object-parameters

From the S3 Config, I think I have the right target for the URL: https://ibm.github.io/ibm-cos-sdk-js/AWS/Config.html

but I can see that services bound to buckets no longer need the bucket parameter spelled out.

Is this because you can specify a bucket-specific endpoint and pass s3BucketEndpoint: true? I'm new to all of this so just trying to catch up. I'm also not sure what the default value is for s3BucketEndpoint since it's not mentioned in the docs.

I guess it defaults to false: https://github.com/IBM/ibm-cos-sdk-js/blob/6362a3a391068b324eb2c3621a51f05c2e006929/ts/config.ts#L71

If I understand correctly, the bound parameters would override those defaults, but allow services to define their own values.

The broken link is inherited from upstream. We will remove the hardcode in a future release.

This issue has been addressed in the 1.8.0 release. Please verify and close the ticket.

I see the misleading link is gone so this looks OK to me:
