# AWS Tasks


This module contains a collection of tasks for interacting with AWS resources.

All AWS related tasks can be authenticated using the AWS_CREDENTIALS Prefect Secret that should be a dictionary with two keys: "ACCESS_KEY" and "SECRET_ACCESS_KEY". See Third Party Authentication for more information.

# S3Download

class

prefect.tasks.aws.s3.S3Download

(bucket=None, boto_kwargs=None, **kwargs)[source]

Task for downloading data from an S3 bucket and returning it as a string. Note that all initialization arguments can optionally be provided or overwritten at runtime.

For authentication, there are two options: you can set the AWS_CREDENTIALS Prefect Secret containing your AWS access keys which will be passed directly to the boto3 client, or you can configure your flow's runtime environment for boto3.

Args:

  • bucket (str, optional): the name of the S3 Bucket to download from
  • boto_kwargs (dict, optional): additional keyword arguments to forward to the boto client.
  • **kwargs (dict, optional): additional keyword arguments to pass to the Task constructor

methods:                                                                                                                                                       

prefect.tasks.aws.s3.S3Download.run

Task run method.

Args:

  • credentials (dict, optional): your AWS credentials passed from an upstream Secret task; this Secret must be a JSON string with two keys: ACCESS_KEY and SECRET_ACCESS_KEY which will be passed directly to boto3. If not provided here or in context, boto3 will fall back on standard AWS rules for authentication.
  • bucket (str, optional): the name of the S3 Bucket to download from
  • compression (str, optional): specifies a file format for decompression, decompressing data upon download. Currently supports 'gzip'.
