External System Integration Management Admin Page
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

The External Systems Integration page allows administrators to configure
connections to external systems.
Some features in EDG require a connection to an Amazon S3 bucket.
This page is used to maintain the configured buckets. These buckets can then
be used in the :ref:`AttachmentsPanel`, to **Export to S3** from the :ref:`BasketButton`,
Corpora, and :ref:`BackupRestoreAdminPage`.

* **Bucket** - the name of the Amazon S3 bucket
* **Region** - the bucket's region
* **Authentication type** - Credentials or environment
* **Folder** - optional, for when using folders

   See AWS for more details on creating access keys:
   https://docs.aws.amazon.com/IAM/latest/UserGuide/id_credentials_access-keys.html#Using_CreateAccessKey

Once the required information has been entered and saved, the
**Test Connection** button is enabled, allowing the settings to be verified.
If there any issues connecting to the configured bucket, detailed information
can be found in the workspace logs.
