Tutorial - Creating a Bucket with Three Files
In this tutorial, you will use the EDJX Console to create a bucket named docs-bucket and upload three files, each of a different format to the bucket.
Make sure you have the required permissions to add or modify resources in the EdjPlatform, which are based on group permissions assigned to each user group. See Groups for details.
| For an overview of the UI components of a bucket and its attributes, see the Bucket Attributes topic. |
The following are the steps involved in creating the bucket and uploading files to the bucket:
Prerequisites
-
Review the object storage Naming Requirements.
-
Decide on the access level of the bucket - private or public. You can update the access level later if you change your mind.
-
Identify whether you want to enable the bucket version tracking feature, which is disabled by default. This feature cannot be modified once the bucket is created.
