Downloading to an AWS S3 Bucket

If you have a MoDaC user account and you have write access to an AWS S3 bucket, you can download one or more files to it: 

1. Navigate to the Download page, as described in Downloading to Other Locations. The Download page appears, listing the selected file or files. (To deselect one file, click the checkbox in that row.)
2. Select AWS S3. 
3. Specify the following information: 
   • The name of the destination S3 bucket.
   • The 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, MoDaC creates it.
   • The AWS access key.
   • The AWS secret access key.
   • The region.
4. Click Download. The system transfers the data based on your selections. 
5. When the system displays the task ID, consider clicking that link to view the progress of the download. For instructions, refer to Viewing Status.
