what permissions the user would need to access S3 Bucket via Alteryx Tools

[divya_kavishwar]

Hi Team,

We are setting up an environment where we are planning to setup a S3 bucket to store and access files, our environment team is asking what permission the user would need to access S3 Bucket via Alteryx.

Can anyone help us what basic permission required to access S3 Bucket.

Hi @divya_kavishwar 

My understanding is that you would need 

a) permissions to list the objects in a bucket

b) permissions to read objects from a bucket

c) permissions to write data to a bucket (if you are using the s3 output tool).

Hi @BenMoss ,

Thank you very much for the reply, is this documented somewhere on Alteryx Documentation. I checked but couldn't find any details.

Thanks & Regards,

Hi,

No it doesn't appear to be, perhaps you can raise an idea (in the dedicated ideas page) for this information to be included, as it's quite key!

But from my own experience working with S3 and Alteryx, I'm quite confident those are the permissions you require.
