Setting up MinIO
Please follow these steps to set up MinIO before adding it as a destination in RudderStack:
- Login to your MinIO service
- Create a new bucket. Alternatively, you can also use an already existing bucket.
- You will need to provide
access key ID
andsecret access key
to authorize RudderStack to write to your bucket.
access key ID
is the user ID that uniquely identifies your MinIO account, and secret access key
is the password to your account.
- Make a note of both the
access key ID
andsecret access key
as these will be required while configuring MinIO as a destination.
Configuring MinIO in RudderStack
In order to enable dumping data to MinIO, you will first need to add it as a destination to the source from which you are sending event data. Once the destination is enabled, events from RudderStack will start to flow to MinIO. You will start seeing the files created in your MinIO bucket.
To do so, please follow these steps:
- Choose a source to which you would like to add MinIO as a destination. You can also simply create a destination and connect it to a source later.
- Select the destination as MinIO to your source. Give your destination a name and then click on Next.
- Next, in the Connection Settings, fill all the fields with the relevant information (please refer to the Setting up MinIO section above) and click on Next.
- If you need any transformation, choose one from the list. Else, click on Next.
That's it! You have successfully added MinIO as a destination in RudderStack. Once you send an event from your source, you can find it dumped to your MinIO bucket.
