Amazon drop down menu no longer present

[Carolyn Tregidgo]

I am using IGV 2.8.13 and there is a drop down menu for me to log into AWS to see the S3 buckets with our data in.

I have changed PC and reinstalled 2.8.13 but the amazon dropdown menu is no longer visible.

I am using MacOS Version 10.15.7

I tried later versions of IGV 2.9.2 but that also does not have the drop down menu. Some of my colleagues had this problem too.

Any help greatly appreciated :)

Hi Caz,

The Amazon menu is not there by default. You enable it by giving IGV a pointer to a config file that contains the instructions to allow IGV to connect to your AWS buckets.

In IGV, go to View > Preferences > Advanced. You'll see a field name 'OAuth provisioning URL' - that needs to be set to the URL of your config file.  

Does this ring a bell? You must have done that on your old PC to get this to work. If you have your old PC, you can see what it was set to. Otherwise, here are instructions on how to create a config file: https://umccr.org/blog/igv-amazon-backend-setup/

Thanks Helga, that’s great. I had completely forgotten.

That works perfectly in 2.8.13. Neither me or my colleagues can get it to work in 2.9.2 though.

It’s not a problems as we can use the older version.

Thanks for the help
