Managing your Object Storage Bucket

Overview

StackPath's Object Storage is an S3 compatible solution, meaning that the contents of your buckets can be managed using any S3 compatible tool such as the AWS CLI via the command line, FTP clients via a third-party or programmatically via AWS' S3 SDKs.

These guides will briefly explain the configuration and credentials needed for each of these tools.

Endpoint URL

The endpoint URL contains the endpoint used by your bucket. The endpoint URL varies depending on the region you selected for you bucket. To locate your endpoint URL:

  1. In the StackPath Control Portal, in the left-side navigation menu, click Object Storage.
  2. Locate and select the desired bucket.
  3. Locate the endpoint URL.

Bucket URL

The bucket URL includes your bucket's name and location. Again, the location depends on the region you selected for your bucket upon its initial creation.

  1. In the StackPath Control Portal, in the left-side navigation menu, click Object Storage.
  2. Locate and select the desired bucket.
  3. Locate Bucket URL.

API Credentials

API credentials are a requirement for managing your content in StackPath Object Storage buckets. Please follow the steps below for instructions on how to generate these credentials.

  1. In the StackPath Control Portal, in the left-side navigation, click Object Storage.
  2. Under the list of buckets, click Generate Credentials to create your client access key and secret.
  3. Review the message in the pop-up window, and then click Generate Credentials.
  4. Store Access Key and Secret Key in a safe location.
    • A secret key cannot be recovered. If you lose your secret key, you will have to generate a new key, which will replace the existing secret.
