Our service may automatically deliver compressed ad log data to an Amazon S3 bucket by submitting HTTPS PUT requests to it. Each request adds an object to the bucket. This object contains a CSV file that uniquely identifies a set of log data and describes one or more log entries. Log fields within a log entry are separated by tabs.
Ad log data is typically delivered within 30 minutes.
To set up log delivery
Create or identify an Amazon S3 bucket to which log data will be posted.
Authorize the above IAM ARN to perform the following actions on the desired Amazon S3 bucket:
s3:GetBucketLocation
Optional. Set up AWS to process the log data that will be posted to it.
Example:
Leverage AWS Athena to load the CSV files and run queries on the log data.
