How to connect Amazon S3
Create an access key
In AWS, your data team creates an access key ID and secret access key (a login meant for software, not a person) for Go Fig to use.
Give it read access to the bucket
They let that key read the bucket Go Fig should use, and nothing more. Read only means it can look but never change anything.
Enter the details in Go Fig

Check the files
