Copy a file from SharePoint to AWS S3 bucket

(3) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 20

Hello,

We have a requirement to copy a file from SharePoint document library to an AWS S3 bucket. We want to schedule this to run daily (it’s the same file and we just need to replace the file in S3 bucket with the file in SharePoint).

Has anyone achieved this before? I found some posts that we have to use the SFTP – SSH action for this. Is that correct?

 

These are the only details I have on AWS side :

 

Resource ARN

Bucket Name

Resource Region

Destination Folder

Access Key

Secret Key

 

 

Thank you.

    Hi @SachV @Deesha @TMGinzburg 

     

    Few ways:

     

    1) API call here

     

    2) Setup AWS Transfer Family which is a managed sFTP.  You can then use Power Automate to FTP fies to S3.  I wrote a blog on AWS Transfer Family here.

     

    3) Use 3rd party tools like couchdrop etc here.

    Thanks for the revert @eric-cheng 🙂

    I am aware of AWS Transfer Family , but I am beginner in sharepoint. How to use Power Automate to achieve this ? Sharepoint doesn't have a connector to transfer files to s3.

     

    Thanks

    Hi @Deesha 

     

    Transfer family allows you to ftp files to S3

     

    You can use Power Automate to ftp files via the ftp connector

    Thanks for the revert @eric-cheng  🙂
    I configured sftp server using AWS Transfer family. It is a public server. I am able to sftp into the server using terminal command.

    But when I am trying to create a flow in Power Automate using SFTP-SSH connector , I am getting the following error : Test connection failed. Details: BadGateway


    Am I missing something ?

     

    Thanks

    Hello @eric-cheng ! 
    I was able to connect to the AWS sftp server via MS Power Automate SFTP-SSH connector and was able to create a worklflow that solved my use case.

    (Use Case : Transferring file to S3 from Sharepoint whenever the file is updated. )

     

    Thanks for the suggestion ! It really helped me a lot !

     

    Thanks a lot 🙂
