Good to know
- Buckets are regional. Each region needs its own connection, and a bucket only appears through its home region’s endpoint.
- API keys inherit IAM permissions. If listing works in one project but not another, the key’s project scope is the usual cause.
- Scaleway’s Glacier storage class is real cold storage: objects moved there need a restore before download, and it is only available in Paris and Amsterdam. The app shows storage classes in the file table so you can see what is cold before you queue it.
- Lifecycle rules (including transitions to Glacier) can be edited directly in the app.
