How to SFTP into IBM Cloud Object Storage


I am looking to use sftp to upload files into IBM cloud object storage. Similar to: https://console.bluemix.net/docs/infrastructure/objectstorage-swift/connect-object-storage-using-sftp.html

Which is for openstack swift. Is this possible? I could not find documentation.


Solution

  • It is not possible to connect to IBM cloud object storage by SFTP protocol similar that the Object Storage OpenStack Swift because the sftp port can not connect to the IBM cloud object storage host.

    Another way to connect and upload files into IBM cloud object storage is through the Amazon S3 protocol.

    Below I leave a link in which you will find the necessary steps to connect to IBM cloud object storage: https://developer.ibm.com/cloudobjectstorage/tutorials/using-desktop-client-ibm-cloud-object-storage-public-service-cyberduck-example/
