AWS storage in mendix cloud env

0
Hi all, my client want to use his own AWS S3 Storage in his app. It is running on the mendix cloud. Using all the runtime custom settings with credentials and region, bucket name is working at localhost perfect. When i try to do this in the mendix cloud env i get always access denied by connecting to the aws. I read in the documentation of mendix (https://docs.mendix.com/refguide/custom-settings#5-amazon-s3-storage-service-settings) that it is not possible to change these settings. Isn’t there any easy way to use an extern aws s3 bucket instead of the intern mendix s3 storage? Thanks in advance Regards Christian

So it works now. Difference was, do not use com.mendix.storage.s3.Region. Instead use com.mendix.storage.s3.EndPoint=s3.eu-central-1.amazonaws.com. Now it works perfectly.

Hi Chrisitan, that is correct when hosted on the Mendix Cloud it will store all file documents on to the S3 bucket which is managed by Mendix on your behalf. 

What is the purpose of wanting to use their own S3 bucket?
