I can’t seem to get the “saved to S3” option to show up in my editor when trying to save images in “create new thing” workflows. Do I need to install a plugin or enable something? I’m just trying to save the URL in an input field as an image, but I can’t find any “saved to S3” option. Any hints?
I had this problem too and solved it. In short, don’t save your URL as a text, save it as an Image or File. Then you can extract the URL and save it to bubble’s S3.
WRONG way
Image = TextURL
Problem is the “saved to s3” only shows up for an image/file field.
CORRECT Way:
Image = ImageURL
Then the “saved to S3” will show up.
Hope that helps.

Hi @tony1 @taylorhlabs, I’m running into the same issue where I’m trying to save a URL using S3 option, but it won’t show up in the pull down list (in the “create new thing” workflows).
I verified that my thing field type is “image”, and even tried changing it to “file” to see if that helped, but didn’t make a difference.
Any other suggestions? Thanks in advance for any help you might be able to provide.
Figured it out!
For anyone running into this, here’s what I did.
Before using “:saved to S3” I needed to select “:used as…” then choose Image, then the “:saved to S3” option appeared in the list.
So when creating the new thing in my workflow, it looked like this:
Image = Result of Step 1 (API call)'s data:first item's url:used as an image:saved to S3

Thank you ! I was going in circles trying to figure out that :saved to S3 issue.
