Summary

The cloud outbound adapter has the following settings:

Group Settings
Cloud Storage StorageProvider, EndPoint, ProviderCredentialFile, StorageRegion

The remaining settings are common to all business operations. For information, see Settings for All Business Operations.

StorageProvider

Identifies the cloud storage provider.

EndPoint

PrivateLink endpoint.

ProviderCredentialFile

  • AWS — With AWS, you can leave this blank to use the default credential provider chainOpens in a new tab to obtain the credentials needed to access and S3 bucket. If you prefer to use a credentials file, you can download the credentials file from AWS and then specify its file path. See, Sign Up for AWS and Create an IAM UserOpens in a new tab for more details.

  • GCP — Create access credentials by following Create and manage service account keysOpens in a new tab.

  • Azure — Azure doesn’t support credentials files. It uses a connection string instead, see Configure Azure Storage connection stringsOpens in a new tab for details. The connection string contains key-value pairs delimited by semicolons. The string should be edited to remove the semicolons and each key-value pair placed on its own line.

    A sample connection string looks like:

    DefaultEndpointsProtocol=https;AccountName=sampleuser;AccountKey=5X774mvEs41WxQsOw19PB2Y;EndpointSuffix=core.windows.net
    

    This needs to be broken down to create a file that looks like:

    DefaultEndpointsProtocol=https
    AccountName=sampleuser
    AccountKey=5X774mvEs41WxQsOw19PB2Y
    EndpointSuffix=core.windows.net
    

If you are working with AWS, leave blank to use the default credential provider chainOpens in a new tab to obtain the credentials needed to access an S3 bucket. If you prefer to use a credential file, enter its pathname.

StorageRegion
