Amazon S3 - OpenText File 360 Integration and Automation

Common Integration Use Cases Between Amazon S3 and OpenText File 360

• Secure external distribution of large files stored in Amazon S3
  Data flow: Amazon S3 ? OpenText File 360
  Teams can move large deliverables such as media assets, engineering drawings, financial reports, or legal packages from Amazon S3 into OpenText File 360 for controlled sharing with clients, partners, or regulators. This enables secure access controls, expiration policies, and audit trails while keeping S3 as the primary storage repository.
• Controlled intake of externally shared files into enterprise storage
  Data flow: OpenText File 360 ? Amazon S3
  When external stakeholders upload contracts, compliance evidence, or project files through OpenText File 360, the content can be automatically archived in Amazon S3 for long-term retention, downstream processing, or integration with analytics and workflow systems. This reduces manual downloads and re-uploads while preserving a centralized source of truth.
• Governed collaboration on sensitive project documents
  Data flow: Bi-directional
  Project teams can store master files in Amazon S3 and publish approved versions to OpenText File 360 for secure collaboration with internal and external participants. Updates, comments, or revised versions can be synchronized back to S3, supporting controlled document exchange for initiatives such as product launches, audits, mergers, or construction projects.
• Automated compliance archive for shared business content
  Data flow: OpenText File 360 ? Amazon S3
  Files shared through OpenText File 360 can be automatically copied to Amazon S3 as immutable or policy-managed archives to support retention, legal hold, and eDiscovery requirements. This is useful for regulated industries that need both secure collaboration and cost-effective long-term storage.
• Large file staging for downstream enterprise workflows
  Data flow: Amazon S3 ? OpenText File 360
  Organizations can use Amazon S3 as a high-volume staging area for large files generated by applications, scanners, or batch processes, then route selected files into OpenText File 360 for review and approval. Examples include insurance claims, design files, or supplier submissions that require controlled human validation before release.
• Partner portal for secure file exchange without exposing S3 directly
  Data flow: Amazon S3 ? OpenText File 360 ? external users
  Instead of granting partners direct access to S3 buckets, enterprises can publish selected files from S3 into OpenText File 360, where external users receive governed access with authentication, permissions, and activity logging. This reduces security risk while simplifying partner collaboration.
• Version-controlled distribution of approved content
  Data flow: Bi-directional
  Marketing, legal, or operations teams can maintain working files in Amazon S3 and push approved versions to OpenText File 360 for controlled distribution. When a document is updated in OpenText File 360, the final version can be synchronized back to S3 for use by downstream systems such as websites, portals, or content delivery processes.
• Audit-ready evidence collection and storage
  Data flow: OpenText File 360 ? Amazon S3
  Audit evidence, policy acknowledgments, signed forms, and supporting documents collected in OpenText File 360 can be transferred to Amazon S3 for centralized retention and reporting. This supports finance, HR, compliance, and internal audit teams that need secure sharing plus scalable storage for historical records.
