Blueshift uses Amazon S3 buckets to store data, reports (campaign activity, segment, template), audit trail logs, and so on. You can import this data for your own custom workflows or data warehouse applications.

Note

If you don't want to use the S3 bucket provided by Blueshift and want to export campaign activity and automatic campaign reports to your own Amazon S3 bucket, contact support@blueshift.com to set up data replication.

Access S3 Folders

You can find the details for the S3 bucket and the credentials in the Account Settings > API keys tab. The account Admin role can access the S3 folder credentials from the Account settings page.

You can use an FTP/SFTP client to access the S3 folders. Some examples of open source FTP clients include Cyberduck, Transmit, FileZilla, WinSCP.
