Creating a Connection

1. First, follow our guide to Create your AWS credentiasl

2. Select S3 from the Connector Dropdown

3. Fill out the form with your Access Key, Secret Access Key and Region

4. Once you submit, you will be redirected to a new page

5. Select an API key from the dropdown at the top. All documents created by the connection will be attributed to the selected API key.

6. For S3 Bucket, type in the bucket you want to sync

7. For S3 Bucket Prefix, type in which folder you want to sync. If you want to sync all files and folders, leave this blank. If you want to sync everything under images/cats type in images/cats.

8. Fill out any metadata you want to associate with the files in the folder. You can use this to filter the data later. This is in JSON format. You can leave it blank, or you could set it to something like

   1. json

      {
        "company": "acme"
      }
