Pro:S3 Provider Configuration

Step by Step instructions

1. Start FileZilla and choose Edit, Settings, S3: Providers:
2. In the Provider list click New to add a new provider

   

3. In the Regions list you add the regions. This information can be obtained from your provider. For each region there is a name, a description and a list of endpoints separated by semicolon. FileZilla Pro will use these endpoints to match the host with a specific region.

   

4. Catch All is used to handle redirects to regions not yet known as when the provider adds a new region. Format is used to build endpoints for unknown regions. Format accepts the following tags {REGION} and {BUCKET}. Those tags are replaced by region and bucket respectively.

   

5. In Site Manager add a new site:
6. In Host enter the address of your space
7. In Access Key ID enter your space access key
8. In Secret Access Key enter your space access secret

   

When establishing a session with FileZilla, the correct provider and region is fetched from the list providers as follows, top to bottom:

• If the hostname ends on a known endpoint, the matching region and associated provider is used;
• Otherwise if it matches a catch-all, the associated provider is used, assume us-east-1;
• Otherwise fall back to the first configured provider (by default that's Amazon) and assume us-east-1
