Access buckets and files through URLs

There are two URLs with which you can access files from a bucket.


Object storage instances in Falkenberg have the location code dc-fbg1. Object storage instances in Stockholm have the location code dc-sto1. These are used in URLs to access files.

There are two URLs to choose from when accessing files through URLs.

  • https://objects.[location].glesys.net/[bucket]/[path]

  • https://[bucket].objects.[location].glesys.net/[path]

For files to become publicly available, you must first make them public or change the bucket's access control list. See Make files publicly available for instructions on how to make files public using s3cmd.

Examples

A bucket named example-bucket, placed in Falkenberg, with the file my-file.txt, would be accessed using either of the URLs:

  • https://objects.dc-fbg1.glesys.net/example-bucket/my-file.txt

  • https://example-bucket.objects.dc-fbg1.glesys.net/my-file.txt

A bucket named patient-credit, placed in Stockholm, with the file dog.jpg, would be accessed using either of the URLs:

  • https://objects.dc-sto1.glesys.net/patient-credit/dog.jpg

  • https://patient-credit.objects.dc-sto1.glesys.net/dog.jpg
