About Storage Buckets

Storage buckets provide a per-folder storage solution for RPA developers to leverage in creating automation projects (e.g. for a .pdf file used across multiple business processes or data sets used for your machine learning models). For details on using storage buckets in your automation projects read about Orchestrator activities in the Activities guide.

As storage buckets are created within the scope of a given folder, this enables you to use the fine-grained permissions and role assignment models of the Folders feature to control access to these storage buckets and their contents only to those accounts that need it. Users with the required permissions can browse the contents of any configured storage bucket, and upload or download files as desired.

The Storage Buckets page displays your currently configured buckets and enables you to create as many additional storage buckets as needed.

Storage Providers

Storage Buckets can be configured using any of the following providers:

• Orchestrator
• Azure Storage (WASB)
• Amazon S3 - supports SSE-KMS

Note:

• For connecting to AWS S3 buckets, Orchestrator uses signature V4 by default, in all configurations. If you want to enable the old behavior, where V2 signatures were used for us-east-1, you need to add the Aws.UseSignatureVersion4 setting to the UiPath.Orchestrator.dll.config file, with the value false.
