### Add a new XML/CSV/TXT/JSON import

* Go to **Setup > Import**.
* Click **Setup import** (or **Combine imports** if you added an import in this project).
* Pick the file type you need (XML, CSV, TXT, or JSON).
  {% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Configure the Amazon S3 settings

To configure the import setup for Amazon S3, use the following settings:

* **Protocol:** "https\://".
* Enter the **URL** to your file.

{% hint style="info" %}
Important: The URL should contain the region in which your bucket is hosted (for example 'eu-central-1'). The import will only work with an S3 bucket URL, not with a custom domain.
{% endhint %}

* **Authentication:** Amazon S3.
* Enter your **AWS Access key ID** and your **AWS secret access key**.
