    I found a support thread from 2014 of an Ink File Picker, but it seems neither the widget nor the service is longer anymore. What other way is there to upload files to S3?

    Thanks!

    Hi there,

    Thank you for reaching out.

    Right now, you can integrate your form to Amazon S3 via Zapier.

    Please see this guide: https://zapier.com/apps/jotform/integrations/amazon-s3

    I hope that helps, let us know should you need any further assistance.

    I tried using Zapier, but I am getting an error (The app returned "Not Found".) as Zapier seems to only have access to the fields in the form and not the files themselves. Any ideas on how to get the file(s) themselves?

    The trigger will contain the URL of the uploaded file. Please see below test trigger I have made:

    This works with other cloud drive integrations such as Google Drive or DropBox, so I believe this should work as well with AWS.

    I suggest checking this out with Zapier and see if there's an additional configuration to be used for AWS integrations.
