Saving images to Amazon S3 from Android Camera

Sadostrich914

I have an android phone and I want to save images that I take with its camera to my Amazon S3 account. Is there any way to do this? I found this article (http://aws.amazon.com/articles/Mobile/4611615499399490) but it seems to be outdated. Any help would be appreciated.

Assuming you would like to use the Amazon S3 (Simple Storage Service) to store images taken from an Android camera, you would need to use the AWS SDK for Android. With the SDK, you would be able to get the images from the camera and upload them to your S3 bucket.

Here are the steps you would need to take:

Set up your AWS account and create an Amazon S3 bucket.
- Follow the instructions here: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/latest/gsg/GetStartedWithS3.html
Install the AWS SDK for Android.
- Instructions can be found here: https://aws.amazon.com/sdk-for-android/
Once you have the SDK set up, you can use the AmazonS3Client class to get images from the camera and upload them to your S3 bucket.
- Sample code can be found here: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/latest/dev/uploadobjusingandroid.html

I hope this helps!

Saving images to Amazon S3 from Android Camera can be done in a few simple steps. Here's how:

Create an Amazon S3 bucket for your images.
Set up the AWS SDK for Android and connect to the S3 bucket you created.
Request permission from Android to access the camera.
Initialize an Intent to capture an image from the device's camera using the Camera class.
Capture the image using the onActivityResult() method to get the image data.
Upload the image data to your Amazon S3 bucket using the PutObjectRequest class.
Generate a URL for the newly uploaded image using the Amazon S3 Presigned URL.

Here's a link to the official Amazon S3 documentation for setting up the AWS SDK for Android and uploading objects:
