Object Lambda Function Settings

This page documents environment variables for configuring MinIO AIStor to publish data to an HTTP webhook endpoint and trigger an Object Lambda function. See Transforms with Object Lambda for more complete documentation and tutorials on using these environment variables.

You can specify multiple targets by appending a unique identifier _ID for each set of related settings.

export MINIO_LAMBDA_WEBHOOK_ENABLE_myfunction="on"
export MINIO_LAMBDA_WEBHOOK_ENDPOINT_myfunction="https://webhook-1.example.net"
export MINIO_LAMBDA_WEBHOOK_ENABLE_yourfunction="on"
export MINIO_LAMBDA_WEBHOOK_ENDPOINT_yourfunction="https://webhook-2.example.net"

You can specify multiple targets by appending a unique identifier :ID to the configuration key.

mc admin config set ALIAS lambda_webhook:primary enable="on" endpoint="https://webhook.example.net"

mc admin config set ALIAS lambda_webhook:secondary enable="on" endpoint="https://webhook.example.net"

Each configuration setting controls fundamental MinIO AIStor behavior and functionality. Test configuration changes in a lower environment, such as DEV or QA, before applying to production.

Enable

Client key

Specify the path to the private key to use for performing mTLS authentication to the lambda webhook service.

Response header timeout

Optional

Specify the timeout period for receiving response headers from the lambda webhook server.
