Configuring your external data storage

Application management : Configuration : System Settings : External data storage : Configuring your external data storage

It is possible to exchange data with an external data store by using Enterprise Talk. Currently, we only support amazon S3 buckets; the configuration is done in Planon's External data storage TSI. Here, you specify the connection between Planon and Amazon Web Service (AWS), and the buckets that you want to use.

1. On the Data storage credentials level, click Add AWS credentials.

2. Fill out the credentials for connecting with AWS.

For Key and Secret, enter the access key and secret of your AWS account.

3. Specify an Expiration date. You can schedule a task to notify someone when this date is approaching.

4. Go to the Data storage location level and add an S3 location.

For more information on the fields on this level, see Data storage location fields.

5. Click Save.

You have completed configuring your AWS connection, and you are now ready to use it.
