Research direction

Search the backend for the AWS_S3_BUCKET_PREFIX and ENVIRONMENT-based bucket construction shown in the issue, then trace where the bucket setting is read. Replace that composition with a single configurable bucket-name setting and verify that the configured name is used unchanged, including names without an environment suffix.

Description

enhancement

Describe the issue
Currently, the AWS S3 bucket name is constructed dynamically in code like this:

return f"{self.AWS_S3_BUCKET_PREFIX}-{self.ENVIRONMENT}"

  • This assumes that all bucket names will follow the - pattern.

  • However, in future scenarios, users or organizations might bring their own bucket names, which may not include the environment in their naming convention or may follow completely different patterns.

  • Hardcoding the bucket name composition like this makes it inflexible and prone to failure if the naming convention does not match.

Expected behavior

  • There should be a single, fully-configurable AWS S3 bucket name setting(e.g., AWS_S3_BUCKET_NAME)which is used directly without concatenating prefix and environment in code.

  • This allows using existing customer buckets regardless of naming convention.
