FTP or Cloud Storage destinations must be configured to be available options for exporting your report from Data Studio. Go to Reports > Data Studio > Destinations (left menu) & use the following information when configuring:

  • HTTPS is required for all connection types.
  • If you export to a subfolder in Dropbox, prepend the subfolder name(s) with a forward slash (/). Example: /aotest
  • If adding Microsoft OneDrive as a destination, you can only connect a personal account. Business accounts are not currently supported.

Amazon S3

To link an Amazon S3 bucket, you need your Secret Key, your Access Key, and the name of your bucket. To get these Keys you will need to create an IAM user within AWS. See the AWS documentation:

Here is an example of the policy that should be attached to the user to allow Data Studio to export to Amazon S3:

{
"Version": "2012-10-17",
"Statement": [
{
"Sid": "s3export",
"Action": [
"s3:PutObject",
"s3:GetObject",
"s3:AbortMultipartUpload",
"s3:GetBucketLocation",
"s3:DeleteObject"
],
"Effect": "Allow",
"Resource": [
"arn:aws:s3:::AWSBUCKETNAME/*",
"arn:aws:s3:::AWSBUCKETNAME"
]
}
]
}
