TransferNetworkConnectionType
The TransferNetworkConnectionType option allows you to restrict the type of network connection (WiFi / Mobile / ANY) over which the data can be transferred to Amazon S3.

TransferUtilityOptions options = new TransferUtilityOptions(10, TransferNetworkConnectionType.WIFI);

TransferUtility transferUtility = TransferUtility.builder()
// Pass-in S3Client, Context, AWSConfiguration/DefaultBucket Name
.transferUtilityOptions(options)
.build();
copy
By specifying TransferNetworkConnectionType.WIFI , data transfers to and from S3 will only happen when the device is on a WiFi connection

Hi team, what is the status of this feature request? The linked discussion is no longer visible.

We are looking to upload large (1GB+) video files to S3 and it is a deal breaker to not have the option to transfer when on Wifi only. The old AWS Android SDK supports this feature and it is unfortunate that this package does not, because it prevents us from using this package despite all the other nice features it has.

Hi @martinxsliu. This feature has not yet been prioritized. I'll highlight this to the team to see if we can get some traction. For the time being you should continue to use the AWS SDK for Android.
