New to automation with Zapier? You're not alone. Here are some answers to common questions about how Zapier works with Hotjar and Amazon S3
How can I integrate Hotjar with Amazon S3 using our platform?
You can integrate Hotjar with Amazon S3 using our platform by setting up a Zap, where Hotjar serves as the trigger app and Amazon S3 as the action app. Once you connect your Hotjar account, select a specific event, like 'New Recording' or 'New Feedback Submission' as the trigger. For the action, configure Amazon S3 to store this data in your selected bucket.
What types of triggers from Hotjar can be used for integration with Amazon S3?
When integrating Hotjar with Amazon S3, you can use triggers such as 'New Recording', 'New Survey Response', or 'New Heatmap Data'. These events will activate actions that send specific data to your configured Amazon S3 bucket.
Is there a limit on data storage when sending Hotjar data to Amazon S3?
While our system doesn’t impose a limit on how much data you can send from Hotjar to Amazon S3, it’s important to be aware of any storage limits or costs associated with your own AWS account and set up appropriate monitoring.
How do I select which bucket to store my Hotjar data in on Amazon S3?
During the setup of your Zap for integrating Hotjar and Amazon S3, you'll have the option to specify which existing bucket should receive the incoming data. You may also programmatically determine this by employing dynamic variables within each Zap setup.
Can I automate deletion of old recordings in my Amazon S3 bucket through this integration?

What should I do if my integrated Zap between Hotjar and Amazon S3 is failing?
If you encounter failures while running a Zap between Hotjar and Amazon S3, first verify that both accounts are properly connected and authorized through our platform. Check logs for errors related to triggers or actions, ensuring all fields are correctly mapped and that API limits haven’t been reached.
How secure is the transfer of data from Hotjar to an Amazon S3 bucket via our integration tool?
Data transfer security is paramount. When setting up a Zap between Hotjar and Amazon S3 using our platform, all connections are encrypted utilizing HTTPS protocols. Make sure both services have strong authentication practices enabled for additional security layers.
