How-To: Archive to S3
Welcome to the Cribl self-guided demo! This course, Cribl Stream - S3 Archive, is the second in a series designed to give you a quick overview of Stream.
In this course, we configure an S3 archive to store our IT and Security data for later use. This course should take about 10 minutes to complete. At the end of the course, you can optionally continue on with the other How-To's and continue building a full configuration, or try out any of the other courses available at https://sandbox.cribl.io
This sandbox instance stays running for 24 hours, after which you can get a new sandbox, but your progress will be lost. To reconnect to the sandbox, just come back to S3 Archives and re-enter your email address.
Conventions
In this tutorial, the following formatting indicates (respectively) actions we expect you to take; content you can optionally skip; and commands or content you need to paste into the terminal or Stream.
Important text shows actions you need to take. For each of these sections, further sections will depend on your having taken these actions in Stream.
Notes contain optional steps. You can skip these without breaking the infrastructure we're building.
Preformatted text contains commands to be pasted
into the terminal, or content to be pasted into
Stream. There is an easy Copy option available
at these sections' upper-right corner.
Getting Help

Login
Stream should automatically log you in, but if you're idle for too long, or get disconnected, you might get prompted to log in.
Copy/paste the credentials to a local file, in case you get prompted to log in later.
