It turns out the Uppy AWS S3 plug in and Multer are mutually exclusive: you can use one or the other, but not both (apparently you can use Multer with the XHR Upload plug, though I haven’t tried that).

If you’re interested in using the Uppy with the AWS S3 plug in and NodeJS with Express, I’ve provided some detailed instructions [here](https://community.transloadit.com/t/uppy-aws-s3-pre-signed-url-nodejs-complete-example-including-metadata-and-tags/15137), which include metadata and tag uploads too.
