If your user account has the Read permission level on data in DME, you can download that data. 

To download data to S3:

  1. Navigate to the Download page, as described in Downloading to Other Locations. The Download page appears.
  2. Select AWS S3.
  3. Specify the following information:
    • Name of the destination S3 bucket.
    • Path to and the name of the folder in the destination bucket. Do not begin the path with a slash. If the destination folder structure you specify does not already exist, DME creates it. If you are downloading a single file, you can keep the existing file name or specify a new file name.
    • AWS access key.
    • AWS secret access key.
    • Region. 
  4. Click Download. The system responds as follows:
    • The system begins to transfer the data based on your selections and displays the task ID link.

      To view the progress of this transfer, click that link. The Collection Download or Data Object Download Task Details page appears. For instructions, refer to Viewing the Details of a Download Task.

    • Depending on your event subscriptions, the system might send you an email notification of the transfer status. For instructions on subscribing, refer to Subscribing to Download and Registration Notifications.
