Amazon S3 Target File Parameterization

When you parameterize the file name and target folder location for Amazon S3 target objects, you can pass the file name and folder location at run time. If the folder does not exist, the agent creates the folder structure dynamically. You can also append time stamp information to the file name to show when the file is created.

When you specify the file name for the target file, include special characters based on Apache

STRFTIME

function formats that the

mapping

task uses to include time stamp information in the file name. You can use the

STRFTIME

function formats in a mapping.

The following table describes some common
