EMIS Web integrates with AWS S3 for efficient document management and retrieval, enhancing both convenience and security. To ensure successful document upload and retrieval:

Configuring Your AWS S3 Bucket

  • Create an AWS account if you don’t already have one and navigate to the S3 section to set up your dedicated bucket.
  • Ensure the bucket is configured with appropriate permissions, allowing secure access based on specific user roles.

Uploading Documents

  • In EMIS Web, navigate to the document management section and select the documents you wish to upload.
  • Ensure you have stable internet connectivity to avoid interruptions during upload.
  • Confirm that your EMIS Web account has the necessary permissions for interacting with AWS services.

Retrieving Documents

  • Utilize the EMIS Web interface to access uploaded documents, their metadata will be stored within EMIS Web while the content resides securely in AWS S3.
  • To fetch a document, query based on metadata such as document type or upload date, provided you have the requisite permissions.
  • Keep AWS credentials updated in EMIS Web to ensure continuous access.

This functionality streamlines the document management process, saving administrative time and bolstering data privacy through secure cloud storage.
