Hi Derek,

You want to make a callout, right? If yes, below is sample rest callout code:
  
HttpRequest req = new HttpRequest(); 
 
  //Set HTTPRequest Method
  req.setMethod('PUT');

  //Set HTTPRequest header properties
  req.setHeader('content-type', 'image/gif');
  req.setHeader('Content-Length','1024');
  req.setHeader('Host','s3.amazonaws.com');
  req.setHeader('Connection','keep-alive');
  req.setEndpoint( this.serviceEndPoint + this.bucket +'/' + this.key); // you should give your endpoit url here along with the key
  req.setHeader('Date',getDateString()); 

  //Set the HTTPRequest body	
  req.setBody(body); 	

  Http http = new Http();
  
   try {
 
        //Execute web service call here		
        HTTPResponse res = http.send(req);	

        //Helpful debug messages
        System.debug(res.toString());
        System.debug('STATUS:'+res.getStatus());
        System.debug('STATUS_CODE:'+res.getStatusCode());
		
} catch(System.CalloutException e) {
	//Exception handling goes here....
}
