Object Storage Manager Features
The Object Storage Manager provides a complete interface for managing your storage:
Buckets
- Create a bucket — A bucket is a top-level container for your files
- View existing buckets — See all buckets in your account
- Configure bucket settings — Set access permissions (public or private) and region
- Delete a bucket — Remove empty buckets
Files and Objects
Within each bucket:
- Upload files — Upload individual files or folders
- Browse objects — Navigate your bucket's directory structure
- Download files — Retrieve stored objects
- Delete objects — Remove files from your bucket
- Generate presigned URLs — Create temporary URLs that allow time-limited access to private objects
Access Keys
EasyCloudify™ Object Storage uses access key pairs for programmatic access:
- Create an access key — Generate a key ID and secret for S3 API access
- View existing keys — See all access keys associated with your account
- Delete a key — Revoke access for a specific key pair
Connecting Your Application to Object Storage
Use any S3-compatible client library to connect:
Endpoint: [Your EasyCloudify™ storage endpoint]
Region: [Your bucket region]
Access Key: [Your key ID from the Access Keys section]
Secret Key: [Your secret key from the Access Keys section]
💡 Tip: Store your access key ID and secret in environment variables — never hardcode them in your application source code.
