Uploading Files & Access Keys

Sync a local folder​

The fastest way to get files into a bucket is the CLI's sync command, which uploads a whole folder and only transfers changes on repeat runs:

rumpty sync ~/sales-reports my-backups --watch

See Sync a Local Folder for filtering, restore, and background daemon mode.

Upload via the dashboard​

From the bucket detail page, drag and drop files into the upload area, or click Upload files. Supported types: images (PNG, JPEG, WebP, GIF, SVG), documents (PDF, TXT, HTML, Markdown, CSV, DOCX), and video (MP4, WebM, MOV, MKV, AVI, HLS playlists and segments).

Uploaded files appear in the Assets tab with name, type, size, status, and creation date. Select a file to preview it, copy its URL, open it, or delete it.

Access via public URL​

Public buckets serve files at a permanent public URL:

https://assets.rumptycloud.com/projects/<project-id>/<bucket-name>/<filename>

You can also copy a file's URL from the Assets tab: select the file, then click Copy URL.

Access keys and SDK access​

Go to the Access keys tab on the bucket detail page. Enter a name (e.g. production-uploader) and click Create. The secret access key is shown only once, so copy it right away. You can revoke a key at any time; apps using a revoked key lose access to the bucket.

The tab also shows connection details (endpoint, region, bucket name, and access key ID) and ready-made upload snippets for JavaScript, TypeScript, PHP, Go, Java, Ruby, and Rust.

Use the credentials with any S3 SDK or the AWS CLI against the S3-compatible endpoint https://s3.rumptycloud.com. Configure your SDK for path-style addressing (e.g. forcePathStyle: true).

export AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=<your-key>
export AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=<your-secret>

aws s3 cp ./photo.jpg s3://<bucket-name>/photo.jpg \
  --endpoint-url https://s3.rumptycloud.com

Signed URLs (Private buckets)​

For private buckets, generate a signed URL server-side before serving a file to a client. Signed URLs expire after a set duration; objects are never directly public-read.

The dashboard generates signed read URLs for you: selecting a file in the Assets tab creates one for the preview, and the file inspector shows when the URL expires.
