Unity AWS SDK set-up

I’m a bit new to using SDKs, so I’m not exactly sure what to do in terms of setting up the SDK for Unity. I followed the instructions here: Set Up the AWS Mobile SDK for Unity - AWS Mobile SDK for Unity
and I took a look at the DynamoDB example to see how it worked. However, even with the link.xml (which I’m not sure is in the right place) and the awsconfig.xml and following all the steps, the example doesn’t work (at least I don’t think it does?) and I keep getting this:
XmlException: expected ‘>’ (3E) but found ‘<’ (3C) Line 3, position 6.

Basically I’m kind of lost as to what to do now since I’m not sure what the example is supposed to look like either. Is there a simpler tutorial to set this stuff up? Or can someone please provide screenshots of what the initial set-up (in a clean/new environment?) is supposed to look like?

Thanks

Hey @jedexa,

Hopefully, you solved this issue by now but if not here are a few things to note.

  1. The xml files, link.xml and awsconfig.xml, go into a folder named Resources. You can create that folder anywhere in your project folder. You can have multiple Resources folders throughout the project, Unity takes care of referencing overhead.

  2. A gotcha is the Unity SDK Seems to be merged with the Xamarin version so the awsconfig.xml will need correctForClockSkew=“true” <aws correctForClockSkew="true" region="us-east-1">.

  3. The most important, don’t copy and paste current aws example its wrong,

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> %|-1870186756_1|% %|-536668050_2|% logResponses="Always" %|1557674292_4|% logMetricsFormat="JSON" /> %|27808136_6|%
What you should be using is a correctly formated xml document.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <aws correctForClockSkew="true" region="us-east-1"> <logging logTo="UnityLogger" logResponses="Always" logMetrics="true" logMetricsFormat="JSON" /> <s3 useSignatureVersion4="true" /> </aws>
This works for the current version(aws-sdk-unity_3.3.53.0) of the SDK working in Unity 5.6
