Image Input Tool from S3 Bucket

Question

Good morning,

I have a use case for the image input tool that I am curious about. We have a workflow that needs to verify the data in an image against a table. I have that part of the workflow worked out, however for security reasons there is a request that the images be uploaded to a S3 Bucket instead of through the gallery app I have built for the process.

Is this possible to do without having to download the image from the s3 to our server?

Sure, can you send me an example? Thank you

The current Alteryx S3 Download tool doesn't support the image file types. However, if you download them using the download tool to the engine temp directory it will clean them up automatically after the process terminates.

Let me know if you need an example flow.
