When you enter credentials for an AWS S3 account for the first time to establish a connection, the software shows a wizard asking, “Do you want to save the credential?”. Select Yes to skip the hassle of adding it again and again.

Once the Amazon S3 account is connected, AWS S3 to SharePoint software shows you a list of Directories (Buckets), from which you can select only those that you need on the SharePoint site.

On the filter selection page, there is an option that says – “If a file with the same name already exists at the destination, its migration will proceed according to the option selected from the choices below:”

If destination file already exists:

  1. Add as new version if the destination file is older than the source file.
  2. Skip if already exists

Selecting the “Skip if already exists” option ensures that only the recent data not at the destination is migrated during the process.
