Describe the feature you'd like
Generate a valid S3 URL for uploaded files(attachments), just like generating a valid S3 URL for uploaded images.

Describe the benefits this feature would bring to BookStack users
Some servers have bandwidth or traffic restrictions. Using S3 links can speed up downloads or save traffic.

Thanks for the request @NoverNobida but this would complicate the file management significantly, in both UI and logical file handling, especially on the case of supporting S3-like minio/B2 that handling public access permissions in other ways. It's also not something we can do by default since it'll work around BookStacks enforcement of permissions.

I'll leave this open for some time to understand if there's a fundamental need otherwise I'll likely close this off after a while.

Since there's been no further request for such functionality I'll close this off.
