AWS Data Storage System API - Implementation Template
home
This API implementation template is a shared component of MuleSoft Accelerators, which accelerate the implementation of essential integration use cases.
The solution includes pre-built APIs, connectors, and integration templates that help unlock business-critical data from external systems and guide you in adopting best practices synthesized from thousands of customer implementations. Use these assets as is or extend them to meet your company’s unique needs.
Overview
This integration template implements the Accelerator AWS Storage System API specification. The Accelerator AWS Storage System API is used to manage object in AWS S3 Storage. It supports the following functionality:
- Writes an object encoded in Base64 to a bucket
- Return the content of an object encoded as Base64
- Return list of objects in a bucket
Getting started
The Getting Started with MuleSoft Accelerators guide provides general information on getting started with the accelerator components. This includes instructions on setting up your local workstation for configuring and deploying the applications. |
Once your workstation has been set up and the application template imported into Anypoint Studio, proceed with the Prerequisites section.
Prerequisites
This implementation template has the following requirements:
- Access to an Amazon S3 bucket
Deployment
Each Accelerator implementation template in Exchange includes Bash and Windows scripts for building and deploying the APIs to CloudHub. These scripts depend on repositories, global settings, deployment profiles, and associated properties configured in the Maven settings.xml
file. In particular, make sure the common properties for your environment have been provided in the CloudHub-DEV
profile (e.g., Anypoint Platform client ID and secret).
For additional details, please refer to the Application Deployment section of the Getting Started Guide.
Preparation
Ensure the Maven profile CloudHub-DEV
has been properly configured in your settings.xml
file. In particular, make sure the common properties for your environment have been provided (e.g., Anypoint Platform client ID and secret).
Required property overrides
Many templates can also be run from Anypoint Studio without having to customize the Run/Debug profiles. However, some templates make use of hidden deployment properties to protect sensitive information (e.g., passwords and secret keys). These properties must be supplied to the runtime by updating the configuration profile and adding them as VM arguments. At a minimum, the following properties must be customized to reflect the target deployment environment.
Property Name | Description |
---|---|
api.autodiscoveryID | Required if using API Manager to secure this API |
amazon.s3.roleARN | Amazon S3 Instance ARN identifier |
amazon.s3.region | AWS region |
amazon.s3.accesKey | AWS S3 accesKey |
amazon.s3.secretKey | AWS S3 secretKey |
Testing
Use Advanced Rest Client or Postman to send a request over HTTPS. The template includes a Postman collection in the src/test/resources
folder. Update the collection variable(s) after successful import.

- The Data mappings tab describes how the request and response data structures are mapped between the API interface and the backend Amazon S3 API.
