Connectors
Amazon S3 Connector
Our Amazon S3 Connector sends Collector data to your configured S3 bucket. In order to take advantage of this Connector you will need the following information:
Bucket Name - name of the S3 bucket
Region - region of your S3 bucket
Access Key - credentials for an IAM role/user with access to the S3 bucket
Secret Key - token that allows our service to access your S3 bucket
Data Formatting - JSON Array or JSON Line
Object Output Structure - the output path. For example,
your_object_path/$year/$month/$day/$hour/will result in a nested directory structure.
When generating the Access Key and Secret Key for the user/role that will be granted access to your S3 Bucket, it’s mandatory that it has the s3:PutObject permission. You may optionally add the s3:DeleteObject permission.
During configuration our Connector setup writes a temporary file to confirm S3 access then deletes it (if it has that permission). You will see a message that setup was successful. If not, please review the IAM role/user access permissions and ensure they have appropriate access.
