AWS integration · 5 node(s) including 1 trigger.

00Overview

Simple Storage Service operations

Every field below is exactly what you see in the Flomation editor. Fields marked ● live picker let you choose from a list pulled live from your account — no IDs to look up.

01Connecting S3

Add your credentials as a Flomation environment secret, then pick them in each node. The connection fields are:

Field	Type		Details
AWS Access Key	`secret`
AWS Secret Key	`secret`

Pick an Environment on your flow (Flow Settings → Environment) so the secret resolves. Secret fields never show the value — they reference ${secrets.your_secret}.

07Notes & Limitations

Behaviours and constraints worth knowing before you build with these nodes.

Listing objects returns at most 1,000 entries per run, so a bucket or prefix holding more than that will be truncated and require repeated runs to page through fully.
The prefix filter is a literal left-anchored match on the object key, not a wildcard or folder pattern — reports/ matches everything whose key begins with that text, and *.pdf is treated as literal characters.
Deleting an object reports success even when no object with that key exists, so a successful delete is not confirmation that a file was actually present.
Uploading with an existing key overwrites the previous object in place rather than creating a second copy, and the prior contents cannot be recovered unless the bucket has versioning enabled.
