Scheduled import

Scheduled import checks your AWS S3 location hourly. A newly added object may wait for the next poll, followed by processing time. Use instant import when prompt arrival notifications are needed and the provider setup is available.

Configure the source

1. Complete Chipper Access.
2. Open Configure → Log Sources → New log source and choose the instrument.
3. Choose Existing cloud storage, then AWS.
4. Enter the bucket name, AWS region, access key ID, and secret access key. You can reuse credentials from an existing source in the same location when the wizard offers that option.
5. Set a log prefix specific to this instrument, such as instrument-a/logs/, and optionally give the source a recognizable name. Avoid overlapping prefixes with another source.
6. Complete the connection check, choose Scheduled import, and finish setup.

The cloud-source wizard filters by object prefix; it does not offer a filename-glob field. Local include/exclude globs belong to the collector's local-log configuration.

Verify ingestion

Open the source under Configure → Log Sources to inspect its last import and recent failures. Use Import now where offered to request a poll without waiting for the next hourly cycle. Then check Investigate → Log Files and confirm the intended instrument and processing status.
