    Category Action Description
    Bucket Management Create Bucket Creates a bucket in Amazon S3.
    Look up Buckets List Amazon S3 buckets.

    Delete Object Deletes specified object from a bucket.

    Connection and credential alias requirements

    Integration Hub uses aliases to manage connection and credential information, and OAuth credentials. Using an alias eliminates the need to configure multiple credentials and connection information profiles when using multiple environments. If the connection or credential information changes, you don't need to update any actions that use the connection.
