# Example: Programmatically integrate Amazon S3 with Connect Customer Customer Profiles
<a name="customerprofiles-s3-integration"></a>

Using the Customer Profiles [PutIntegration](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/customerprofiles/latest/APIReference/API_PutIntegration.html) API, you can programmatically create integrations for S3, Salesforce, Marketo, and more. 

In this topic we show how to create an S3 integration with a sync interval of 15 minutes, the minimum value currently supported. 

## Step 1: Create a JSON file
<a name="step1-cpintegration"></a>

Create a JSON file with the following contents:

```
{
    "DomainName": "{{your-domain}}",
    "ObjectTypeName": "{{your-object-name}}", 
    "FlowDefinition": {
        "FlowName": "{{your-flow-name}}",
        "KmsArn": "{{the key ARN is the same as your domain's key}}",
        "Description": "Created by Customer Profiles",
        "TriggerConfig": {
            "TriggerType": "Scheduled",
            "TriggerProperties": {
                "Scheduled": {
                    "ScheduleExpression": "rate(15minutes)",
                    "DataPullMode": "Incremental",
                    "ScheduleStartTime": {{1634244800.435}},
                    "FirstExecutionFrom": {{1594166400}}
                }
            }
        },
        "SourceFlowConfig": {
            "ConnectorType":"S3",
            "SourceConnectorProperties": {
                "S3": {
                    "BucketName": "{{your-bucket}}",
                    "BucketPrefix": "{{your-prefix}}"
                }
            }
        },
        "Tasks": [
            {"TaskType":"{{Filter}}","SourceFields":["{{colA}}","{{colB}}"],"ConnectorOperator":{"{{S3}}":"{{PROJECTION}}"}},
            {"ConnectorOperator":{"{{S3}}":"{{NO_OP}}"},"DestinationField":"{{colA}}","TaskProperties":{},"SourceFields":["{{colA}}"],"TaskType":"{{Map}}"},
            {"ConnectorOperator":{"{{S3}}":"{{NO_OP}}"},"DestinationField":"{{colB}}","TaskProperties":{},"SourceFields":["{{colB}}"],"TaskType":"{{Map}}"}
        ]
    }
}
```

To customize the JSON with your own values, follow these guidelines:
+ `FlowName`: Can be STRING [a-zA-Z0-9][\\w\!@\#.-]\+
+ `ScheduleStartTime`: Set to the current `DateTime` \+ 5 minutes in epoch time.
+ `FirstExecutionFrom`: Go to S3, look at the file date, and use a date that is before the oldest date.
+ `Tasks`: Define `TaskType`. In the `Sourcefields` field you have to supply ALL the columns you have in your CSV in that array. Then, for each of the items in that array, you need to specify the `ConnectorOperator`. This example is for a CSV document with two columns: `colA` and `colB`.

## Step 2: Call the PutIntegration API

After you have created and customized the JSON file with your values, call the [PutIntegration](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/customerprofiles/latest/APIReference/API_PutIntegration.html) API, as shown in the following example:

```
aws customer-profiles put-integration --cli-input-json file:///{{put_integration_s3_cli.json}} --region {{us-west-2}}                    
```

The response from `PutIntegration` returns a flow URI. For example:

```
{
    "DomainName": "testDomain",
    "Uri": "arn:aws:appflow:us-west-2:9999999999999:flow/Customer_Profiles_testDomain_S3_Salesforce-Account_1634244122247",
    "ObjectTypeName": "your objec type",
    "CreatedAt": "2021-10-14T13:51:57.748000-07:00",
    "LastUpdatedAt": "2021-10-14T13:51:57.748000-07:00",
    "Tags": {}
}
```

## Step 3: Call the Amazon AppFlow StartFlow API

Use the flow URI to call the Amazon AppFlow [StartFlow](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/appflow/1.0/APIReference/API_StartFlow.html) API. For example:

```
aws appflow start-flow —flow-name {{uri}} --region {{us-west-2}}
```
