Appending files consolidates multiple files of the same file type into a single source.

Note: Birst supports appending .txt and .csv and file types.

  1. From the Edit objects in S3 Connector page, click Append Files.


  2. Select a bucket from the list of buckets that you have access to in S3.


  3. Specify the name in the Append Files field.
    Note: This name cannot be changed after downloading.


  4. Select all files to append.
    After selecting your first file, you can only select files of the same file type. Files of a different type become disabled and cannot be selected.
  5. Click Download.
