Create an AWS S3 storage product in WHMCS

Define the storage service customers can order through PD AWS S3. Connect the intended AWS account first, then choose the service defaults and the platform’s provisioning policy.

Configure the service offering

  1. Open System Settings → Products/Services → Products/Services and create or edit the storage product.
  2. Choose the Other product type for this storage service.
  3. On Module Settings, select PD AWS S3 and the intended server group.
  4. Review Quota mode, default quota, bucket allowance, versioning, Default Region and client feature switches.
  5. Set Automatically setup the product to your intended automatic option, such as setup when the first payment is received.
  6. Save and review the order form before accepting orders.

The default region matters before the first order. Exposed customer options can override defaults; use the configurable-options guide and region guide to review that deliberately.

Confirm that activation provisions storage

A service marked Active is not by itself proof that the module created storage. Confirm that the intended module action ran and that Clients & Storage shows the bucket and current provisioning result. Use the normal module operation on the existing service when investigating; do not place repeated paid orders just to test settings.

Creating storage incurs AWS resources and provider usage. Review the account, intended region and configuration before using your controlled provisioning process.

Review the client result

Check that the intended service has its own bucket and service credentials. Verify the client can see their storage information and only the controls included in the product or package. Keep host IAM credentials out of client notes.

If the service remains empty or pending, use the provisioning troubleshooting guide before creating another service or changing a working account.

See the PD AWS S3 WHMCS guide for related tasks, or explore the module.
