Overview

The S3 File Writer Snap is a Write-type Snap that reads a binary data stream from its input view and writes it to an S3 file destination. If you provide values for File permissions, the Snap sets the permissions to the file. 

  • This Snap has the ability to use an MD5 checksum that automatically checks for data integrity and corruption while uploading the file. If the checksum that Amazon S3 calculates during the upload does not match the value that Snap has sent in the request, S3 fails to store the object and the Snap displays an error.
  • The current Snap functionality supports AWS S3 Cloud Service and is applicable for AWSGovCloud setup.

Important

We plan to introduce additional S3 features exclusively in Amazon S3 Snaps, while Binary Snaps with S3 support will not contain these updates. Therefore, we recommend you to use the Amazon S3 Snap Pack for all your S3 operations within your pipelines. However, Binary Snaps will be retained as is to maintain backward compatibility, but be aware that we will no longer provide S3 support for the Binary Snaps.

Error handling is a generic way to handle errors without losing data or failing the Snap execution. You can handle the errors that the Snap might encounter when running the pipeline by choosing one of the following options from the When errors occur list under the Views tab:

  • Stop pipeline Execution: Stops the current pipeline execution if the Snap encounters an error.

  • Discard Error Data and Continue: Ignores the error, discards that record, and continues with the remaining records.

  • Route Error Data to Error View: Routes the error data to an error view without stopping the Snap execution.

Learn more about Error handling in Pipelines.

Field NameField Type Description

Label*


Default Value:S3 File Writer
Example: S3 File Writer

String

Specify the name for the Snap. You can modify this to be more specific, especially if you have more than one of the same Snap in your pipeline.


File name*


Default Value: s3:///

Examples: 

String/Expression/Suggestion

Specify the URL for the S3 file, from where the binary data is to be read. This Snap also supports S3 Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) endpoint. For example, s3://my-bucket@bucket.vpce-028b7814794578709-vu0vvauy.s3.us-west-2.vpce.amazonaws.com

The file name must start with s3:///. You can use the suggest feature to view the list of buckets, subdirectories and files. Bucket names are suggested if the property is empty or s3:///. Once you select a bucket, it can list subdirectories and files immediately below the bucket. Names of subdirectories end with a forward slash ("/"). The suggest feature is not supported if the properties in the S3 Dynamic account are parameters.

Prerequisite: The provided account must have Read access to the specified S3 bucket in order to read the file successfully.

Using Expressions:

This property can be an expression with the Expression enabler  enabled.

For example, if the File property is "s3:///mybucket/out_" + Date.now() + ".csv" then the evaluated filename is s3:///mybucket/out_2013-11-13T00:22:31.880Z.csv.

Syntax:

For region names and their details, see AWS Regions and Endpoints.

Region Name

Region name is optional only if the region is us-east-1. In all other cases the region name must be specified based on the syntax above. For example, mybucket@eu-west-1. 

For more information about regions, see AWS Regions and Endpoints.

Acceptable File Paths

  • Relative paths

    • filename.json: Saves the file in the project.

    • ../shared/filename.json: Saves the file in the Project Shared Space.

    • ../../shared/filename.json: Saves the files in the Org Shared project.

  • Absolute path

    • /<org>/<projectSpace>/<project>/filename.json

Lint Warning

The Snap displays a Lint Warning in your Pipeline in the following scenarios:

  • INCORRECT_FILE_PATH: When you provide an incorrect file path to write a file, such as not following the given relative paths pattern or absolute path patterns.

  • INCORRECT_ORG_PATH: When you create files or directories in a different org other than the one where the Pipeline is executing.

Therefore, we recommend that you confirm to any of the acceptable relative paths. Otherwise, use an absolute path—that is provide a file path that belongs to the same org where you want to write the file, or use the File Upload icon to specify the File path.

Suggest fully-qualified file names


Default Value: Deselected

Checkbox

Select this checkbox to include the region and authority of the S3 bucket in the associated paths that appear in the Suggestion list.

We recommend you to use fully-qualified suggestions from the Suggestions list if you are using an instance in the gov cloud.

File action*


Default Value:OVERWRITE 
Example: IGNORE 


Dropdown list

Specify the action to perform if the file already exists. The available options are:

  • OVERWRITE - The Snap attempts to write the file without checking for the file's existence for a better performance, and the "fileAction" field will be "overwritten" in the output view data.
  • IGNORE - The Snap will not overwrite the file and will do nothing but write the status and file name to its output view.
  • ERROR-  The error displays in the Pipeline Run Log. If an error view is defined, the error will be written there as well.

Even though it is listed, Append is not supported for the S3 file protocol.

Write empty file


Default Value: Deselected

Checkbox

Select this checkbox to write an empty file when the incoming binary document has empty data. If there is no incoming document at the input view of the Snap, no file is written regardless of the value of the property.


Write header file


Default Value: Deselected


Checkbox

Select this checkbox to write a header file whose name is generated by appending ".header" to the value of the File name property. The header file provides metadata about the file such as content disposition or content type. The same header information is also included in the output view data, as shown in the "Expected output" section above, under the key "original". 

The binary data stream in the input view may contain header information about the binary data in the form of a document with key-value pair data.

If the header has no keys other than Content-Type or Content-Encoding, the .header file is not written.

Validate after write


DefaultValue: Deselected

Checkbox

Select this checkbox to allow the Snap to check if the file exists after writing the file.


Number of retries


Minimum value: 0

Default Value: 0
Example: 3

Integer/Expression

Specify the maximum number of retry attempts the Snap must make when it fails to write. If the value is larger than 0, the Snap first stores the input data in a temporary local file before writing to the target file.

Ensure that the local drive has sufficient free disk space as large as the expected target file size.

If the value is larger than 0, the Snap first downloads the target file into a temporary local file. If any error occurs during the download, the Snap waits for the time specified in the Retry interval and attempts to download the file again from the beginning. When the download is successful, the Snap streams the data from the temporary file to the downstream Pipeline. All temporary local files are deleted when they are no longer needed.

Retry interval (seconds)


Default Value: 1
Example: 3

Integer/Expression

Specify the minimum number of seconds for which the Snap must wait before attempting recovery from a network failure.


Minimum value: 1

Buffer size(MB)


Default Value: 10 MB


Integer

Specify the data (in MB) to load into the S3 bucket, at a time.

  • The minimum data size you can upload is 6 MB.

  • The maximum data size you can upload is limited to 10000 times the buffer size.

  • To upload S3 files that are more than 100 GB in size, we recommend you to set the Buffer size to 100 MB or more. Also, set the Maximum upload threads to 10; otherwise, many parallel HTTP connections may be opened, leading to the following error: "AmazonClientException: Unable to execute HTTP request: Timeout waiting for connection from pool".

Refer to Upload Part for more information on uploading to S3. 

Maximum upload threads


Default Value: 10
Example:3

Integer

Specify the maximum number of threads to be used for the concurrent multipart upload. The minimum value allowed is 1.

To upload S3 files that are more than 100 GB in size, we recommend you to set the Maximum upload threads to 10. Also, set the Buffer size to 100 MB or more; otherwise, many parallel HTTP connections may be opened, leading to the following error: "AmazonClientException: Unable to execute HTTP request: Timeout waiting for connection from pool".

AWS Canned ACL


Default Value: None
Example: PublicRead

Dropdown list

The predefined ACL grants (from AWS) to use when writing a file to S3. Choose a Canned ACL from the available options:

  • None
  • Private
  • PublicRead
  • PublicReadWrite
  • AuthenticatedRead
  • LogDeliveryWrite
  • BucketOwnerRead
  • BucketOwnerFullControl
  • AwsExecRead

Watch the video for more information about AWS Canned ACL. Learn more: AWS Canned ACLs.

Access Control List


Use this field set to define the Access Control List (ACL) to the specified S3 file. This filed set contains the following fields:

  • Grantee
  • Read
  • View permissions
  • Full control

The account that you use for the Snap must have the required permissions to set the ACLs for the S3 object it is writing to.

GranteeString/Expression/Suggestion

Select a grantee from the suggested list or enter a valid email address or a canonical ID associated to an AWS account. Canonical AWS ID can be obtained in the Security Credentials page of the AWS console.

A grantee can be an AWS account or one of the predefined Amazon S3 groups. The following note is an excerpt from AWS document:

"An email grantee is a grantee identified by their email address and authenticated by an Amazon system. email grants are internally converted to the canonical user representation when creating the ACL. If the grantee changes their email address, it will not affect existing Amazon S3 permissions. Adding a grantee by email address only works if exactly one Amazon account corresponds to the specified email address. If multiple Amazon accounts are associated with the email address, an AmbiguousGrantByEmail error message is returned. This happens rarely, but usually occurs if a user created an Amazon account in the past, forgotten the password, and created another Amazon account using the same email address. If this occurs, the user should contact Amazon customer service to have the accounts merged. Alternatively, grant user access specifying the canonical user representation."

Examples:      

  • "Everyone"
  • "Authenticated user"
  •  an email address used to create AWS account
  • a canonical AWS ID, e.g. "1700891f3927e316dc4c9e18c789b32131880f48d3e03ac110aaf695b212573e"

"Everyone” option allows anyone in the world to access the file (authenticated or anonymous). Even when the bucket is protected with permission and if the file operation in the Snap under ACL->Grantee is set to 'Everyone', any user (authenticated or anonymous) can access the file. So, we highly recommend not to use this option as its unsafe. 

Email Address Grantee Access

You can use Email addresses to specify a grantee only in the following regions:

  • US East (N. Virginia)
  • US West (N. California)
  • US West (Oregon)
  • Asia Pacific (Singapore)
  • Asia Pacific (Sydney)
  • Asia Pacific (Tokyo)
  • EU (Ireland)
  • South America (São Paulo)

For more information, see Specifying Grantee.

ReadCheckboxGrants permission to read the file.
View permissionsCheckboxGrants permission to read the ACL.
Full controlCheckboxGrants full control to the file.
User-defined object metadataUse this field set to define key-value pairs for user-defined object metadata of an S3 object. For more information about user-defined object metadata, see Using Metadata

This field set contains the following fields:

  • Key
  • Value
KeyString/Expression

Specify the key name of the object metadata.

The key names of the object metadata are case-insensitive.  AWS S3 converts them to lower-case and prefixes them with “x-amz-meta-” when displayed in the AWS S3 web console.

When the S3 File Reader Snap reads an S3 file, this metadata is shown in the header of the output binary data, and the key names are displayed in lower-case without the prefix “x-amz-meta-”.

ValueString/ExpressionSpecify the value for the key entered above.
Object tags

Use this field set to define key-value pairs for object tags of an S3 object. Object tags enable you to categorize existing and new objects using key-value combinations. For details about the object tags, see Object Tagging. This field set contains the following fields:

  • Key
  • Value
KeyString/Expression

Specify the key name of the object tag.

The key names of object tags are case-sensitive. When the S3 File Reader Snap reads an S3 file, these object tags are displayed in the header of the output binary data. If a key name of an object tag is the same as another in the header, it is prefixed with “tag_”.

See example Providing User-defined Object Metadata and Object Tags using the S3 File Writer Snap below for more information. 

ValueString/ExpressionSpecify the value for the key entered above.

Snap Execution

Default Value: Execute Only
Example: Validate & Execute

Dropdown list

Select one of the three modes in which the Snap executes. Available options are:

  • Validate & Execute: Performs limited execution of the Snap, and generates a data preview during Pipeline validation. Subsequently, performs full execution of the Snap (unlimited records) during Pipeline runtime.
  • Execute only: Performs full execution of the Snap during Pipeline execution without generating preview data.

  • Disabled: Disables the Snap and all Snaps that are downstream from it.

Optional Configuration

IAM Roles for Amazon EC2

To access S3 files from Groundplex nodes hosted in the EC2 environment without specifying Access-key ID and Secret key in AWS S3 account configured for the Snap, enable the ‘IAM_CREDENTIAL_FOR_S3’ feature. When you enable this feature, the IAM credential stored in EC2 metadata is used to access S3 buckets.

To enable the IAM_CREDENTIAL_FOR_S3 feature:

  1. Open Manager.
  2. Open the Snaplexes tab of the project that contains the EC2-based Groundplex.
  3. Click the Groundplex to open its Properties.
  4. Open the Node Properties tab.
  5. Add a new row in the Global properties section.

  6. Specify jcc.jvm_options as the Key and -DIAM_CREDENTIAL_FOR_S3=TRUE as the Value. 

    Restart the JCC (node) to apply the changes. For more information about IAM Roles, refer to IAM Roles for Amazon EC2.

Examples

Providing User-defined Object Metadata and Object Tags using the S3 File Writer Snap

This example is a basic use case for the S3 File Writer Snap. It also demonstrates how you can configure the Snap with custom object metadata and object tags to classify the data. 

In the sample Pipeline, the S3 File Writer Snap is configured as follows with the User-defined object metadata and Object tags: 

The following is a preview of the output data from the S3 File Writer Snap: 

When the S3 File Reader Snap reads this data, it picks up the user-defined object metadata and object tags we defined, as show below: 

Typical Configuration

Key configuration of the Snap lies in how the values are passed. Values can be passed to the Snap:

Without Expressions

For example, the File name is passed directly to the Snap in the image below.

With Expressions

The File name is passed using Pipeline Parameters:

Download the Pipeline.

Downloads

Important steps to successfully reuse Pipelines

  1. Download and import the pipeline into the SnapLogic application.
  2. Configure Snap accounts as applicable.
  3. Provide pipeline parameters as applicable.

  • Removed duplicate strings in the request’s User Agent header sent by  S3 File Writer and S3 File Reader Snaps to display the string without any duplicates.
  • Enhanced the Directory Browser Snap to process the files with the owner field for the SFTP protocol. Upon validation, the output of the Snap fetches the owner’s name, which was previously displayed as unknown.
  • Fixed an issue with the File Writer Snap where the Snap fails to connect to the SFTP endpoint using the AWS Transfer Family.
  • Fixed an issue where integration Pipelines fail to connect the SFTP Server with the Binary Snap Pack when upgraded to the SnapLogic 4.25 release version (main9554).

  • Fixed the following issues in the PGP Decrypt Snap caused due to the Snap patch 425patches9581:
    • The Snap writes an empty document to the output view when there is an error in the Snap. It will now decrypt the document and write it to the output view only if it succeeds.
    • The Snap fails to decrypt any non-signed encrypted file more than 500 bytes. It will now decrypt both non-signed and signed encrypted files. 
    • Removed the Project ID field from the Google Service Account, since the JSON Key already contains information about the Project ID.

Fixed an issue with the PGP Decrypt Snap where the Snap writes an empty document to the output view when there is an error in the Snap. It will now decrypt the document and write it to the output view only if it succeeds.

As of  we have discovered an issue with this Binary patch affecting the PGP Decrypt Snap. In case your Pipelines use the PGP Decrypt Snap, we recommend you to NOT use this patch. Else, your Pipelines will likely fail. We're working on a fix and will be deploying a Snap patch soon.

Enhanced the S3 File Writer Snap with an ability to write S3objects with Access Control List (ACL) details in a single API call.

In the 4.23 release, the S3 File Writer Snap used to write an S3 file and then set ACL if the ACL property was not empty. If the file write was successful and the ACL setting failed, both the output document in the output view and the error document in the error view was displayed. This issue has been resolved in the 4.24 release by enabling the Snap to configure ACL while writing the file. Therefore, the Snap produces an error document in the error view if the ACL configuration fails, irrespective of whether the file write action passes or fails.

4.24 Patch424patches9044-Latest

Enhanced the S3 File Writer to use an MD5 checksum that automatically checks for data integrity and corruption while uploading the file.

Fixed an issue with File Writer Snap by skipping the validation of the SAS URI having write permission, if the SAS URI uses an access policy.

4.23 Patch423patches7660-Latest

Enhanced the File Poller Snap by adding a field, Exit on first matches, which when set to true stops the Snap from executing after the first file paths matching the filter are written to the output view. If the field is not configured or is set to false (default value), then the Snap continues to poll the directory until the Polling timeout is reached.

4.23main7430-Stable

Enhanced the ZipFile Write Snap to provide the ability to change the default content-type (application/octet-stream) for any file that is stored into the Azure Blob Storage (WASB: or WASBS: file protocol). Hence, the files that the ZipFile Write Snap writes into the Blob Storage can be saved with content-type asapplication/zipor any other type instead of application/octet-streamalways.

You can now prevent the Snap from writing files always to Azure Blob Storage (WASB: or WASBS: file protocol) with the application/octet-stream content-type. To do so, configure a binary header property in an upstream Snap, such as JSON Formatter or Mapper, to match the file's content – application/zip, application/java-archive and so on; and pass it as the $content-type (case-sensitive) for the file.
