S3 to alteryx automatic file loading

[shariq4u]

Hi ,

I am new to Alteryx an amazing tool. I am curious how S3 to alteryx data loading works.

Suppose I have a S3 bucket in which document are regularly stored and we want some transformation at Alteryx level and finally loaded transformed data into snowflake.

I am confused about Alteryx will get notified each time a document loaded into S3.

Any Idea?

Thanks.

Hello @shariq4u 

There is some good discussion in this thread about techniques specific to Amazon S3 buckets: https://community.alteryx.com/t5/Alteryx-Designer-Discussions/S3-Download-only-if-File-is-New/td-p/7... 

Leveraging either the CLI or the custom Teknion tools would be good options
