The files your users upload can be pushed to the AWS S3 bucket of your choice. Select Amazon S3 as the destination type and provide the AWS credentials, the bucket/folder name, and the access policy for storing the files.
The data is stored as S3 objects named {{import_id}}_{{user_id}}.csv, where user_id is the custom user attribute you reference via the setUser method while installing the importer code. The other 4 custom user attributes are saved as the user-defined metadata of the S3 object.
The AWS credentials need the following 3 minimum policies for uploading files to S3:
  • ListBucket: required for testing the connection.
  • PutObject: required to add objects to S3.
  • PutObjectTagging: required to add the tags (metadata) to the uploaded objects.

S3 data type

You can store the data in S3 in either CSV or JSON format.
