Find Activated Files in Amazon S3

After you create and activate segments to Amazon S3, a subfolder called Salesforce-c360-Segments is automatically created when the first segment is activated to Amazon S3.

Access Amazon S3.

For activations with S3 (Legacy) as the target, a subfolder called Salesforce-c360-Segments is automatically created when the first segment/DMO is activated. Go to the path /{bucket}/{parentFolder}/Salesforce_c360_Segments.
- For segment activations, activated files are created in the format {yyyy}/{MM}/{dd}/{HH}/{segmentName}_{activationName}_{yyyyMMddHHmmssSS}/
- For batch DMO activations, activated files are created in the format {yyyy}/{MM}/{dd}/{HH}/{activationName}_{yyyyMMddHHmmssSS}/
For activations with Amazon S3 as the target, activated files are placed in the parent or child directory based on your configuration. Go to the path /{bucket}/{parentFolder}/{childFolder}/{automaticFolder} based on your configuration.
- For segment activations, activated files are created in the format {segmentName}_{activationName}_DateTimeSuffix_Part#.FileFormat.CompressionFormat.PGPEncryption
- For batch DMO activations, activated files are created in the format {activationName}_DateTimeSuffix_Part#.FileFormat.CompressionFormat.PGPEncryption.
