Practical ways you can use Amazon S3 and Microsoft SharePoint
Backup important business files to SharePoint
When a new file is added to a frequently used Amazon S3 bucket for business files, Zapier automatically moves it to a chosen folder in SharePoint. This maintains a comprehensive backup for easy sharing and collaboration among team members.
Business Owner
Sync new SharePoint files with Amazon S3
When a new file is added in a specific SharePoint folder, Zapier automatically uploads it to an Amazon S3 bucket, ensuring the files are available for developers or applications reliant on the S3 storage infrastructure. This workflow streamlines storage consistency and collaboration.
Engineering
Archive SharePoint files in Amazon S3
When a file is added or updated in a specified SharePoint folder, Zapier triggers an upload of that file to an Amazon S3 bucket for centralized archival. This automation helps IT departments manage storage efficiently while maintaining data redundancy.

Frequently Asked Questions about Amazon S3 + Microsoft SharePoint integrations
New to automation with Zapier? You're not alone. Here are some answers to common questions about how Zapier works with Amazon S3 and Microsoft SharePoint
How can I trigger an action in SharePoint when a new file is uploaded to Amazon S3?
You can set up an automated workflow through our integration platform that triggers a specific action in SharePoint whenever a new file is uploaded to Amazon S3. This doesn't require coding, and you can configure the workflow to, for example, create a new document in a specific SharePoint library based on the upload event from S3.
Is it possible to copy files from SharePoint to an Amazon S3 bucket automatically?
Yes, we allow you to set up a trigger in SharePoint that, upon adding or updating a file, can automatically copy the file into an Amazon S3 bucket. You can define filters and conditions under which these transfers occur.
Can Amazon S3 updates trigger changes in SharePoint lists?
Certainly! You can configure a workflow where changes or additions to files in your specified Amazon S3 bucket update corresponding list items in a SharePoint site. This is handled seamlessly behind the scenes.
What happens if there is an error during the integration process between Amazon S3 and Microsoft SharePoint?
If an error occurs during any process within the integration—such as data transfer or synchronization—our platform will log these incidents and optionally send notifications via email or other communication channels, so you can address the issue promptly.
Can metadata from files stored in Amazon S3 be imported into SharePoint columns?
Yes, during the transfer process, you can map metadata fields from files stored on Amazon S3 directly into corresponding columns within a SharePoint library. This ensures all relevant information travels with each file.
Are there limitations on the types of files that can be transferred between Amazon S3 and SharePoint?
Generally, our integrations do not impose strict limits on file types; however, certain configurations may require attention to file formats supported by both services (S3 object formats and permissible formats within a specific configuration of your SharePoint site).
How frequently does synchronization occur between Amazon S3 and Microsoft SharePoint?
The synchronization frequency depends on how you set up your integration workflows. Typically, triggers respond instantly as events occur such as file uploads; however, batch processes might be scheduled at intervals ranging from minutes to hours based on your requirements.
