How to connect to an Amazon S3 bucket

Integrate MASV with your Amazon S3 bucket

Amazon S3 from AWS (Amazon Web Services) is a cloud storage service known for providing scalability, data availability, security, and performance. If you have an Amazon S3 cloud storage bucket, follow the steps below to connect it to MASV.

You can create more than one Amazon S3 integration in MASV, mapping each integration to a specific Storage Class, transfer direction (save to S3 or send from S3), and Target Directory. You can then pair the integration with one or more MASV Portals to send or ingest files exactly where you want them.

How do I get Amazon S3 access keys?

Before you can integrate Amazon S3 with MASV, you need to have an access key for your Amazon S3 bucket. An access key consists of an Access ID and Secret Key. For detailed information about how to create and manage Amazon S3 access keys, visit Manage access keys for IAM users.

To integrate an Amazon S3 bucket with MASV

  1. In the MASV Web App, as a Team Owner or Admin (role), from the sidebar on the left, select Integrations.

  2. On the Integrations page, select the Available Integrations tab.

  3. Select Amazon S3.
  4. In the Add Integration window, enter or select the information required: 
  • Connection Name

  • Bucket (Name of the Amazon S3)

  • Access Key ID

  • Secret Access Key

  • Region
  • Storage Class: Choose from Standard, Glacier, Intelligent Tiering, One-Zone, and more.
  • Transfer Direction

  • Target Directory (optional)
  • Parent folder 

4. Select Done, and on the Integrations page, select My Integrations.

5. Refresh the page to update the list and status of the connections.

That's it! After authentication, the service will be integrated into MASV and you'll be able to see it under Deliver To Cloud section in your new and existing Portals.
