Download images from Cloudinary and then upload to an existing AWS S3 bucket.
This service works for both uploaded or fetched image.
Since Cloudinary auto backup does not support fetched images, there are some scenarios where you need this. For example, someone stuffed your Cloudinary storage by fetching images from everywhere because of the lack of security settings and you want to back up the images for legal reasons before deleting them from Cloudinary.
This service uses Cloudinary admin api to get the image list.
The default api rate limit is 5,000 per day, if that is not enough, please ask Cloudinary to bump the limit up to 10,000 per hour.
Assume you have required knowledge to do this. Keep the bucket private.
Assume you have required knowledge for AWS and serverless framework.
Update the required environment variables and then run npx sls deploy.
Go to AWS console, choose Step Functions to find the state machine and simply start an execution.
Watch the state machine running or AFK until the job is done.
Don’t forget to check the Dead Letter Queue to see if there is any failure caused by unexpected errors.
