  2. If you enter an existing folder, the device will sync the files and folders in that folder.
  3. If you enter a non-existent folder, the device will create a new folder in the cloud storage bucket.
• Source Gateway - The gateway to use for syncing to the cloud.
• Server Side Encryption - The type of encryption to use for files stored in the cloud.
• Encryption Key or Encryption Key ID/Alias - The encryption key provided by the cloud storage bucket provider.

Server Side Encryption Types

If AES-KMS or SSE-C is selected, enter an Encryption key from the cloud storage provider. If connecting to an existing folder, use the same encryption applied to the folder.

If using AES-KMS, specify the following permissions in the S3 account.

{
    "Sid": "kmsSid",
    "Effect": "Allow",
    "Action": [
        "kms:Decrypt",
        "kms:GenerateDataKey"
    ],
    "Resource": [
        "{kms key ARN}"
    ]
}
