Selling Protected Large Data Files?

Looking for suggestions. I've got another project in the pipeline but have delayed it as I haven't found the right solution.

I've got extremely large data sets/files that I plan on selling individually. I'm looking for a no code solution.

Requirements:

  • Files hosted on AWS
  • Limited number of downloads per file per transaction
  • Limited availability (i.e. file is accessible for 1-week and expires after)
  • Integrates with Stripe
  • Please please no Wordpress, I did find a solution but despise Wordpress (easydigitaldownloads.com)

Preferred:

  • Could use Webflow for a front end, Webflow memberships beta (possibly) or Memberstack (not preferred)

Broad view:

  • Site sells various files, files will be large (potentially 10+ gigs), client purchases the file, downloads file (based on limits above)

Any ideas on a solution that could work?

    https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/latest/userguide/ShareObjectPreSignedURL.html this should work for 1,3 and 5. except 2 everything can be done with low code tools in 1-2 days.

      Thanks for the reply.

      I did some research before posting and did find some ways to automate this, I found a couple solutions that utilized Make but in the process Make downloaded the file and then created a unique download link.

      Was hoping for a more out of the box solution than a custom-made one like the Wordpress solution posted above.

      Don't seem to be finding anything though.
