I want to perform some steps in Amazon Quick Flow and store the output in an S3 bucket. Is direct write to S3 supported from Quick Flow? If yes, what are the required setup steps? If not, what is the recommended approach to achieve this?
Hi @01267ts
Please refer to the following community post, which addresses writing output to S3 and may be helpful for you.
Hello, thanks for the help. I tried with Quick Automate and I have now a deployed workflow that writes data in a S3 directly. Do you know if it is possible to run the deployed automation from the dashboard view?
Hi @01267ts
Quick Automate doesn’t currently have a native Run button directly on QuickSight dashboard visuals.
However, here are two approaches you can try:
- Scheduled triggers: Quick Automate natively supports scheduled triggers on deployed automations. If the workflow doesn’t need to be user-initiated, a time-based schedule may suffice.
- Programmatic trigger via API: Quick Automate now provides the StartAutomationJob API that allows you to trigger deployed automations programmatically with custom input parameters. This can be integrated with embedded dashboard callback actions or invoked from a Lambda function to enable on-demand execution.
For the Boto3 API reference - start_automation_job - Boto3 1.43.21 documentation
