Hi! Metaflow in R question: Is there a way to access objects in an S3 bucket directly in R (similar to how it works for python)? Using something like botor would be an option but it is a massive headache as it requires its own AWS credentials in the Docker container...

Hi Simon! Nothing out of the box today. There is some tooling at Netflix of this nature that perhaps @dry-beach-38304 can shed light on. Also, @flaky-plumber-70709 and @calm-motorcycle-38345 may have thoughts on this.

I haven't looked at the R side in a while but the metaflow s3 client wasn't ported over last time I checked. Way back when I was initially working on it I think there was a limitation with reticulate around context managers that I think is now resolved so it should be possible to add that to the R package.
