Record video + Upload to S3, how hard is this?

Hey all, many hours of dev time do you think it would take to make a lightweight plugin that could record webcam video and upload it to AWS S3 in a secure way? In terms of difficulty level, would you classify this as beginner, intermediate, or advanced? Thanks in advance for your help!

It depends on your knowledge of AWS and plugin creation. If you haven’t worked with AWS before, it can definitely be an advanced job.

Thanks @animisha45! How long would it take for an advanced developer, would you guess?

If by an expert developer, you mean someone who is aware of working with AWS SDKs and has a good grasp of JS, it should ideally take 2-3 days to set this up

And if they’re starting from scratch?

Might take some time then. Hard to give a number on that

Another alternative is use a plugin to capture webcam (hopefully there’s a good one), and transfer the file from Bubble to S3 after the fact. I use this and make a job that does import/url → export/s3 https://cloudconvert.com/api/v2/jobs
