  • 1.  AWS S3 Action Pack compared to using the Rest API WS

    Posted Feb 12, 2020 05:32 PM
    We are looking into the best way to do this and from other posts I see most people using the Rest API to do this and the WS agent.  I have not seen much about setting up the S3 Action Pack.  If anyone has more information about integrating either one I would like to hear what you think.  

    Thanks

    These contain very good advise on asking questions and describing supposed bugs (no, you do not need to go to StackExchange for Automic questions, but yes, the parts on asking detailed, useful questions ARE usually relevant):

    I will not respond to PM asking for help unless there's an actual reason to keep the discussion off of the public forums.

    Hi Travis,
    I had checked the AWS S3 REST API and it is not easy to use.  
    The community driven Action Pack you are referring to use the AWS Client which is, in my opinion, the best way of automating AWS S3.
