    Configuring your source

    When creating the source, you will be required to input the following information :

    • Bucket: The name of the Bucket from which you want to find the source files
    • Path: The optional path to the subfolder containing the source files

    Once you add the above details click on Connect and you will see the files in your bucket. An example is shown below:

    Then click on the Create button on the top right-hand corner to create your source.

    Warning

    Don't forget to name your source before creating it. The technical name cannot be changed after creating the source and will be used when trying to open the source using the SDK.

    The encoding of the source files is automatically detected by the Platform. However, if the automatic detection fails, you have the ability to specify the file encoding by clicking on the pen icon next to each source object:

    File Upload

    Select the encoding of your source object in the dropdown selection.

    Supported files and sizes

    The Datastore allows an S31 compatible object store, which allows you to store any unstructured data.

    Warning

    There is a 10 GB size limit on files handled by the Data Store.
