Prerequisites
- You must have read and write privileges for your AWS account before you can setup AFU to upload to an AWS S3 location. You also need the AWS Access Key ID and Secret Access Key.
- Channels and recorders are already added for AFU.
- AFU is enabled and the parameters configured.
Configure AFU upload to AWS S3 using the Admin panel
- From the Automatic File Upload configuration page, select AWS S3 Client as the protocol transfer type.
- Specify the AWS Region Code and the data storage Bucket where you want to upload the file.
- Enter your AWS Access Key Id and Secret Access Key to authenticate access to the AWS S3 data storage bucket. Failure to provide these values could result in content loss if Remove after uploading is selected.
- In the Session Token field, enter the temporary token you got from the AWS Security Token Service (STS).
- Click Apply.
Device differences
- Pearl Nano: Has only one channel and no recorder concept — "Channels and recorders" above applies to the channel only.
