CyberDuck
CyberDuck is a GUI client that allows you to work with cloud storages, including those compatible with the Amazon S3 API. CyberDuck is available for macOS and Windows and as a console client for Linux.
Getting started
-
Create a service account.
-
Assign the required role to the service account, e.g.,
storage.editor. For more information about roles, see Managing access with Yandex Identity and Access Management.Tip
You can assign a role for a folder or a bucket to a service account. A role for a folder gives the GUI client access to all the buckets in the folder. A role for a bucket gives the client access only to this particular bucket. For granular access, assign a role for a particular bucket.
-
Create a static access key.
Note
A service account is only allowed to view a list of buckets in the folder it was created in.
A service account can perform actions with objects in buckets that are created in folders different from the service account folder. To enable this, assign the service account roles for the appropriate folder or its bucket.
Installation
Download the CyberDuck distribution for your OS and run it.
Connection
- Run CyberDuck.
- Click Open Connection.
- Select the Amazon S3 connection type.
- Specify the connection parameters:
-
Server:
storage.yandexcloud.net.To connect to a particular bucket, specify
<bucket_name>.storage.yandexcloud.netin the Server field. -
Port:
443. -
Access key ID: Previously obtained ID of the static key.
-
Secret access key: Previously obtained secret key.
-
- Click Connect.
Once the connection is established, the previously created bucket will open.
Note
CyberDuck treats Object Storage as a hierarchical file system. This means that the keys of objects uploaded via CyberDuck will look like file paths, e.g., prefix/subprefix/picture.jpg.
