Issue: When generating a presigned URL for file viewing in MinIO, the URL was using http://minio:9000, which resulted in a 403 Forbidden error.
Solution: To resolve this issue, a custom Docker network was configured, and MinIO was assigned a specific network address. This approach ensured that MinIO operates with the correct domain and address, allowing presigned URLs to be generated and accessed without authorization issues.
