Configuring S3 Buckets

Introduction

You can use AWS S3 buckets as either the sole destination for a Cloud Playout channel or in addition to an RTMP address or Brightcove Live. The Configuration page allows you to set up the configuration for your bucket(s) once instead of each time you create a channel.

1. In Cloud Playout, click Configuration in the menu on the left:

   

2. Click Add New.
3. Enter the bucket name, access key, secret key, and region.
4. Click Add.
