Quickstart - AWS CLI
If you have the AWS CLI installed, you can start using Fil One in under 2 minutes.
1. Install the AWS CLI
pip install awscli
# or
brew install awscli
2. Configure credentials
Set up a named profile so you don't have to pass --endpoint-url on every command:
# ~/.aws/config
[profile filone]
endpoint_url = https://eu-west-1.s3.fil.one
region = eu-west-1
# ~/.aws/credentials
[filone]
aws_access_key_id = YOUR_ACCESS_KEY
aws_secret_access_key = YOUR_SECRET_KEY
3. Create a bucket
Buckets are created from the Fil One dashboard — the S3 API does not support CreateBucket. Go to Buckets → Create Bucket, enter a name, and click Create.
Once the bucket exists, use the AWS CLI for all object operations.
4. Upload a file
aws s3 cp my-file.txt s3://my-first-bucket/ --profile filone
5. List objects
aws s3 ls s3://my-first-bucket/ --profile filone
6. Download the file
aws s3 cp s3://my-first-bucket/my-file.txt ./downloaded.txt --profile filone
