Description
Sets a bucket's versioning state. Versioning is a method of keeping multiple variations of an object in the same bucket. For example, myfile.txt (version 1111111) and myfile.txt (version 222222). You might enable versioning to prevent objects from being deleted or overwritten by mistake, or to archive objects so that you can retrieve previous versions of them.
Practical usage
Used to set the versioning state of a bucket.
Parameters
Connection
Property | Type | Required | Default | Markup | Description |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Connection | --- | --- | --- | --- | Indicates
where AWS user credentials and preferences should originate from.
This is a design mode parameter used only during task construction
and configuration, thus, comprises no markup. The available options
are:
|
Connection - Session
Property | Type | Required | Default | Markup | Description |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Session | Text | Yes, if Connection is set to Session | EC2Session1 | SESSION="S3Session1" | The name of an existing session to attach this activity to. This parameter is active only if the Connection parameter is set to Session. The default session name is S3Session1. |
Connection - Host > Credentials
Property | Type | Required | Default | Markup | Description |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Access key | Text | Yes, if Connection is set to Host | (Empty) | ACCESSKEY="022QF06E7MXBSH9DHM02" | A 20-character alphanumeric string that uniquely identifies the owner of the AWS service account, similar to a username. This key along with a corresponding secret access key forms a secure information set that AWS uses to confirm a valid user's identity. This parameter is active only if the Connection parameter is set to Host. |
Secret access key | Text | Yes, if Connection is set to Host | (Empty) | SECRETKEY="text (encrypted)" | A 40-character string that serves the role as password to access the AWS service account. This along with an associated access key forms a secure information set that EC2 uses to confirm a valid user's identity. This parameter is active only if the Connection parameter is set to Host. |
Connection - Host > Advanced
Property | Type | Required | Default | Markup | Description |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Protocol | Text (options) | No | HTTP | PROTOCOL="HTTPS" | The
protocol required. The available options are:
|
User agent | Text | No | Automate | USERAGENT="Automate" | The name of the client or application initiating requests to AWS, which in this case, is Automate Desktop. This parameter's default value is Automate. |
Service URL | Text | No | (Empty) | SERVICEURL="https://s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com" | The URL that provides the service endpoint. To make the service call to a different region, you can pass the region-specific endpoint URL. For example, entering https://s3.us-west-1.amazonaws.com points to US West (Northern California) region. A complete list of S3 regions, along with associated endpoints and valid protocols can be found below under Amazon S3 regions and endpoints . |
Maximum number of retries on error | Number | No | (Empty) | MAXERRORRETRY="4" | The total amount of times this activity should retry its request to the server before returning an error. Network components can generate errors anytime in the life of a request, thus, implementing retries can increase reliability. |
Proxy host | Text | No | (Empty) | PROXYHOST="proxy.host.com" | The hostname (for example, server.domain.com) or IP address (for example, 192.168.0.100) of the proxy server to use when connecting to AWS. |
Proxy port | Number | No | (Empty) | PROXYPORT="1028" | The port that should be used to connect to the proxy server. |
Proxy username | Text | No | (Empty) | PROXYUSER="username" | The username that should be used to authenticate connection with the proxy server (if required). |
Proxy password | Text | No | (Empty) | PROXYPWD="encrypted" | The password that should be used to authenticate connection with the proxy server (if required). |
Bucket
Property | Type | Required | Default | Attributes | Description |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Name | Text | Yes | (Empty) | BUCKETNAME="MyBucket" | Specifies the name of the bucket in which to set the versioning state. |
Versioning | Text(options) | Yes | Enabled | VERSIONING="Suspended" | Indicates
the versioning state to set. The available options are:
|
Enable MFA delete | Text (options) | No | Doesn't matter |
|
Enables
MFA (Multi-Factor Authentication) delete. By enabling MFA Delete
on your Amazon S3 bucket, you can only change the versioning state
of your bucket or permanently delete an object version when you
provide two forms of authentication codes together; your AWS account
credentials and the concatenation of a valid serial number, a
space, and the six-digit code displayed on an approved authentication
device (for example, "20899872 301749"). The available options
are:
NOTE: Once you configure
a bucket so that it is MFA Delete enabled, all future requests
to change the versioning state or delete a version require the
request header:[SerialNumber] [AuthenticationCode]. |
MFA codes | Text | No | (Empty) | MFACODES="20899872 301749" | The concatenation of a valid serial number, a space, and the six-digit code displayed on an approved authentication device. |
Advanced
Property | Type | Required | Default | Markup | Description |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Name | Text | No | (Empty) | HEADER NAME="myHeader" | Specifies the "key" in a key-value pair. This is the handle that you assign to an object. In Amazon S3, details about each file and folder are stored in key value pairs called metadata or headers. System metadata is used and processed by Amazon S3, however, user metadata or custom headers can be specified by you. This adds more flexibility and enables you to better distinguish specific files by adding or editing custom headers on existing S3 objects or assigning custom headers to new objects. Press Click here to add new row... to add a key-value pair. Press the red X to remove an existing key-value pair. |
Value | Text | No | (Empty) | VALUE="theValue" | Specifies the "value" in a key-value pair. This is the content that you are storing for an object. In Amazon S3, details about each file and folder are stored in key value pairs called metadata or headers. System metadata is used and processed by Amazon S3, however, user metadata or custom headers can be specified by you. This adds more flexibility and enables you to better distinguish specific files by adding or editing custom headers on existing S3 objects or assigning custom headers to new objects. Press Click here to add new row... to add a key-value pair. Press the red X to remove an existing key-value pair. |
