Hello,

On this page [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/plugins/master/repository-s3-usage.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/plugins/master/repository-s3-usage.html) I was wondering if these settings go into some yml file or into AWS panel?

I am a little confused as to how to configure the plugin itself.

FYI this page is only available for versions \> 5.0.0 (master branch).

If you want to read documentation for 2.2, read this: [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/plugins/2.2/cloud-aws-repository.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/plugins/2.2/cloud-aws-repository.html)

That being said, those settings are going in `elasticsearch.yml` file.
