Hi Inductive Automation,

I am a bit lost on how to get data from my AWS S3 bucket into Ignition, such that I can make a dashboard of the data inside Ignition.  
Anyone knows a guide or can point me in the direction of something relevant?  
Thanks a lot in advance

Best regards,  
Benjamin

S3 has an API. Ignition has `system.net.httpClient()` for calling out to APIs. Use a gateway timer event to call the API on a regular basis to get your information. You'll probably want to store the result in one or more gateway tags (document type, perhaps) for convenient use within your dashboard UI.

Search this forum for `httpClient` for many examples.
