You can create an account from Designer or Manager. In Designer, when working on pipelines, every Snap that needs an account prompts you to create a new account or use an existing account. The accounts can be created in or used from:

  • Your private project folder: This folder contains the pipelines that will use the account.
  • Your Project Space’s shared folder: This folder is accessible to all the users that belong to the Project Space.
  • The global shared folder: This folder is accessible to all the users within an organization in the SnapLogic instance.

Prerequisites

The s3:ListAllMyBuckets permission is required to successfully validate an S3 account. Refer to the Account Permissions section below for additional permissions required for the target resources based on the task to be performed.

Server-side encryption

This represents the type of encryption to use for the objects stored in S3. For Snaps that write objects to S3, this field defines how the objects will be encrypted. For Snaps that read objects from S3, this field is not required.

KMS Encryption type

This field represents the AWS Key Management Service key used to encrypt S3 objects. It can be the key ID or ARN. 

For Snaps that write objects to S3, this is required for encryption types Server-Side encryption with AWS KMS-Managed Keys and Client-Side encryption with AWS KMS-Managed Keys. For Server-Side encryption, the key must be in the same region as the S3 bucket. For Client-Side encryption, a key from any region can be used by using the key ARN value. If a key ID is used for Client-Side encryption, it defaults to the us-east-1 region.

For Snaps that read objects from S3, this field is not required. 

The available options are:

  • None: The files do not get encrypted using KMS encryption.
  • Server side KMS Encryption: If selected, the output files on Amazon S3 are encrypted using this encryption with Amazon S3 generated KMS key.
  • Client side KMS Encryption: If selected, the output files on Amazon S3 are encrypted using this encryption with client generated KMS key.
