Amazon S3 Component

Manage objects and buckets in Amazon S3.

Component key: aws-s3

Changelog ↓

Description

Amazon S3 is an object storage service from Amazon Web Services (AWS). This component allows you to create, read, update, move, list, and delete objects (files) within an Amazon S3 bucket.

API Documentation

This component was built using the Amazon S3 API Reference.

A common integration pattern involves listing files in a file store, and performing a series of actions on the array of files that are returned. See our looping over files quickstart for information about how to create a loop over an array of files.

Listening for file changes

You can leverage Amazon Simple Notification Service (SNS) to listen for file changes in S3. Our GitHub examples repo contains an example integration that illustrates how to listen for file changes in S3 and perform an action when a file is added or updated - you can import and try it out for yourself.

Example Integration

The example integration contains three flows:

  • Create and configure SNS topic runs when an instance is deployed and will create an SNS topic and configure it to listen for new files added to S3. It instructs SNS to notify the Receive SNS Notifications flow when a new file is added to an S3 bucket that a user selected as part of the configuration wizard.
  • Receive SNS Notifications will receive the SNS notification and extract the S3 bucket and key from the message. It will fetch the file that was added. From there, you can process or send that file to another system.
  • Remove SNS Topic will remove the SNS topic that was created in the first flow when an instance is deleted.

Streaming large files to S3

Amazon S3 offers a feature called multipart upload that allows you to upload large files in parts. This component supports multipart uploads in two ways:

  1. File Streaming: This is useful if you are looping over a paginated API and would like to stream the response to S3 as a CSV (or similar) file. This option is useful when you have a large number of records to process and you want to avoid loading all of them into memory at once (which can cause an out-of-memory error). When you use the Upload Stream actions, the component will automatically handle the multipart upload for you. Within your integration you would:

    • Run a Upload Stream - Create Stream action to create a new file stream.
    • Loop over the records you want to write to the file.
      • For each record, run a Upload Stream - Write Data action to write the record to the file stream.
    • Run a Upload Stream - Close Stream action to close the file stream and upload the file to S3.
  2. Multipart Upload: This is useful if you have a file that is already split into parts and you want to upload the parts to S3 and then join them together. Within your integration you would:

    • Run a Create Multipart Upload action to start a new multipart upload.
    • Run a Generate Presigned URL for Multipart Uploads action to generate a presigned URL for each part.
    • Run an HTTP component Post action to post each part to the presigned URL.
    • Run a Complete Multipart Upload to complete the multipart upload.

    This option requires that you manually handle the multipart upload process and abide by the restrictions that Amazon S3 imposes on multipart uploads (like each part being at least 5MB in size, with the exception of the last part).

Connections

AWS S3 Access Key and Secret

An AWS IAM access key pair is required to interact with Amazon S3. Ensure the key pair generated in AWS has proper permissions to the S3 resources to access. Read more about S3 IAM actions in the AWS documentation.

Prerequisites

  • An AWS account with IAM access
  • Appropriate permissions to create IAM access keys

Setup Steps

To create an IAM access key pair:

  1. Sign in to the AWS Console and navigate to Identity and Access Management (IAM)
  2. Select the IAM user that will be used for the integration
  3. Navigate to the Security credentials tab
  4. Under the Access keys section, select Create access key
  5. Choose the appropriate use case (e.g., Third-party service or Application running outside AWS)
  6. Copy both the Access key ID and Secret access key when displayed
Secret Key Visibility

The Secret access key is only shown once during creation. If it is not copied at this time, a new access key pair must be created.

Configure the Connection

  • Enter the Access key ID into the connection configuration
  • Enter the Secret access key into the connection configuration
InputNotesExample
Access Key ID

AWS IAM Access Key ID used for programmatic access. Create access keys in the AWS IAM Console under Security Credentials.

AKIAIOSFODNN7EXAMPLE
Secret Access Key

AWS IAM Secret Access Key paired with the Access Key ID. <strong>Important:</strong> This value is only shown once when created in the AWS IAM Console.

wJalrXUtnFEMI/K7MDENG/bPxRfiCYEXAMPLEKEY

AWS Role ARN

AWS Assume Role authentication allows assuming an IAM role using temporary security credentials. This method is useful for cross account access or when implementing principle of least privilege.

Refer to the AWS documentation on assuming roles for detailed information.

Prerequisites

  • Completed API Key Secret connection setup (access key pair required)
  • Appropriate permissions to create IAM roles

Setup Steps

An IAM user with access keys is required to assume a role. If access keys have not been created, follow the API Key Secret setup steps first, then return here to create the IAM role.

Create an IAM Role with Trust Policy
  1. From the IAM Console, navigate to Roles and select Create Role
  2. Select Custom trust policy as the trusted entity type
  3. Enter the trust policy below, replacing USER_ARN with the IAM user ARN:
View trust policy template
{
"Version": "2012-10-17",
"Statement": [
{
"Effect": "Allow",
"Principal": {
"AWS": "USER_ARN"
},
"Action": "sts:AssumeRole"
}
]
}
  1. Click Next and attach the appropriate S3 permissions policy (e.g., AmazonS3FullAccess or AmazonS3ReadOnlyAccess)
  2. Complete the remaining steps and select Create Role
  3. Copy the Role ARN from the role summary (format: arn:aws:iam::123456789012:role/role-name)

Configure the Connection

  • Role ARN: The ARN of the IAM role to assume
  • Access Key ID: From the IAM user (see API Key Secret)
  • Secret Access Key: From the IAM user
  • External ID (optional): Shared secret for enhanced security
External ID

The External ID provides additional security for cross-account access. Refer to the AWS documentation for more information.

Verify Connection

The IAM user credentials assume the role, which provides temporary credentials with the role's attached permissions. Ensure the trust policy correctly references the IAM user ARN.

Dynamic Access Key ID

Use this input to authenticate with AWS if you are using a dynamically-generated access key. Otherwise, use the connection to enter a static access key ID.

Dynamic Secret Access Key

Use this input to authenticate with AWS if you are using a dynamically-generated secret access key. Otherwise, use the connection to enter a static secret access key.

Dynamic Session Token

Use this input to authenticate with AWS if you are using a OPTIONAL dynamically-generated session token.

The New and Updated Files trigger checks for new and updated files in a specified S3 bucket on a configured schedule. It monitors file changes based on the LastModified timestamp of objects.

For more information on S3 objects, see Working with Amazon S3 objects.

How It Works

  1. Run on the configured schedule (e.g., every 5 minutes)
  2. List objects in the bucket using the ListObjectsV2 API (up to 4,000 objects)
  3. Compare each object's LastModified timestamp against the last poll time
  4. Return keys for any files modified since the last poll
  5. Maintain state to track the last poll time automatically

On the first run, the trigger sets the poll timestamp without returning files. Subsequent runs detect files created or modified after that timestamp.

Configuration

  • Connection: AWS IAM credentials (Access Key or dynamic credentials)
  • AWS Region: The region where the S3 bucket is located
  • Bucket Name: The name of the S3 bucket to monitor

Returned Data

The trigger returns an array of object keys (file paths) that have been created or modified since the last poll. When no changes are detected, returns an empty array and sets polledNoChanges to true.

View example response
{
"data": [
"path/to/new-file.txt",
"path/to/updated-file.pdf",
"images/photo.jpg"
]
}

Best Practices

  • Polling Frequency: Use 5-15 minute intervals for active buckets; longer intervals for low-activity buckets
  • Object Limit: The trigger checks up to 4,000 objects per poll; for larger buckets, consider using the Webhook trigger with SNS notifications instead
  • Permissions: The IAM credentials require s3:ListBucket permission on the bucket

Webhook

Trigger to handle SNS subscription for S3 event notifications | key: snsS3NotificationWebhook

The Webhook trigger receives event notifications from Amazon S3 via Amazon SNS when changes occur in a monitored S3 bucket. It handles both subscription confirmation and notification events automatically.

For real-time notifications without polling delays, use this trigger instead of the New and Updated Files polling trigger.

How It Works

  1. When an SNS topic subscribes to the flow URL, AWS sends a SubscriptionConfirmation message
  2. The trigger automatically confirms the subscription by requesting the SubscribeURL
  3. After confirmation, the trigger receives Notification messages containing S3 event data
  4. Messages are routed to the appropriate branch based on type

Branch Logic

This trigger uses branching to route different message types:

  • Subscribe: Routes SNS subscription confirmation messages (automatically confirmed)
  • Notification: Routes S3 event notifications containing bucket and object information

Configuration

To configure S3 event notifications:

  1. Create an SNS topic using the Create Topic For S3 Event Notification action
  2. Update the topic policy using the Update Topic Policy For S3 Event Notification action
  3. Subscribe to the topic using the Subscribe to Topic action with the flow URL as the endpoint
  4. Configure bucket notifications using the Bucket SNS Event Trigger Configuration action

A full list of supported S3 event types is available in the Event notification types documentation.

Returned Data

The trigger returns the parsed SNS message in the payload body. The Message field contains a JSON string with S3 event records that can be parsed for bucket name, object key, and event type.

"Subject": "Amazon S3 Notification",
"Message": "{\"Records\":[{\"eventName\":\"ObjectCreated:Put\",\"s3\":{\"bucket\":{\"name\":\"my-bucket\"},\"object\":{\"key\":\"test-file.txt\"}}}]}"
}

Best Practices

  • Region: The SNS topic must be in the same AWS region as the S3 bucket
  • Topic Type: Use standard SNS topics; FIFO topics are not supported for S3 notifications
  • Delivery: Notifications are delivered at least once but may arrive out of order or as duplicates
