It is possible to use Amazon S3 as storage both for input and output of conversions. Therefore we recommend for security reasons to create a seperate accessKey / secretKey pair with limited rights. For downloading files CloudConvert needs the s3:GetObject permission, for uploading the s3:PutObject permission. If you want to set a ACL different from "private" for the output file for you will need the s3:PutObjectAcl permission.
The following example shows how to start such a conversion. Please read the documentation about the other necassary parameters for starting conversions.
| Parameter | Description |
