Inspired by database failed to fetch , I’d like to delve deeper into capacities for Observable to help quickly create interfaces for editing / updating data. Let’s say that I have data stored as a *CSV file, and I’d like to change this data from time to time. Following @bgchen , I can do this by sto…

To bring this to a bit of a close (for me, at least), I’d like to share this notebook, which walks through the process of creating an authenticated version of the AWS SDK for JavaScript and using it to read and write from AWS S3 via Observable: [image] S3 Data Connections [secured] This …

It looks like the AWS JS SDK will help, but I haven’t yet gotten any of the online examples working… Some other references: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/sdk-for-javascript/v2/developer-guide/configuring-the-jssdk.html https://docs.aws.amazon.com/sdk-for-javascript/v2/developer-guide/sdk-code-sampl…

In case anyone is following along: I am still learning about data persistence and trying to find a means of supplying a data object to Observable that I can then write back into. Since raising this question, Mike published an Introduction to Serverless Notebooks , which walks through a series of s…

Web security is tricky. CORS does not really do anything, people can still use curl to attack your resources outside of browser context. The only way is with a ‘login’, where you prove u are somebody to an identity provider with secret knowledge. It’s trivial for you to use Firebase Storage (Googl…

Hi @tomlarkworthy , and thanks for the reply! :slight_smile: I really enjoy your many notebooks and appreciate that you share how to integrate Observable, Firebase and Stripe . It’s also super cool how you show how to deploy servers-ide cells with Firebase, and from there hosting a web page. While …

“Following Mike’s serverless recipe was one of my first times dabbling with Lambda , and that notebook showed me that there is indeed a way to write data from Observable to S3 securely.” I want to emphasise that recipe IS NOT SECURE to production standards. The only security is validation on the ori…

I have a full example of AWS integration reading and writing to s3. https://observablehq.com/@tomlarkworthy/access-aws

Oh wow! Look at you go! Thank you for sharing and for all your insights!

Sorry I could not help myself. Neither Mike nor my lastest AWS notebook really had user authentication for security. I was thinking about how to add that without too much friction, and realized you can store passwords in the notebook as long as you hash them [image] Password Secured Client…

Well done you did it. Yeah the development experience is not good with Auth. I try to think if there is a simpler way. Its annoyingly easier on Google Cloud as everybody already has a good account you can use with Cloud permissions, but then google cloud doesn’t have many web SDKs so the functionali…
