AWS S3 Connector

Overview

The AWS S3 Connector enables seamless integration with Amazon S3 services, allowing you to manage S3 bucket operations and generate secure URLs for object access. This connector provides functionality to create both public and pre-signed URLs for temporary, secure access to S3 objects.

Key Features

• Generate public S3 URLs for objects
• Create pre-signed URLs for temporary access
• Manage S3 bucket operations
• Control access to S3 objects with time-limited URLs

Prerequisites

Before setting up the AWS S3 Connector, ensure you have:

• An AWS account with appropriate permissions
• IAM user credentials (Access Key ID and Secret Access Key)
• S3 buckets configured with proper policies
• Understanding of AWS regions and S3 operations

5. Select Access key - Programmatic access
6. Click Next: Permissions

Step 2: Set IAM Permissions
