Linode Object Storage
Dropshare 5.16 or newer
To set up a connection to a Linode Object Storage bucket, you need to create a Linode Connection in the Connections preferences after you've created the bucket in your Linode console.
Step 1: Create Bucket
To create your Linode Object Storage bucket to use with Dropshare, log in to the Linode console, and click on Object Storage, and Create Bucket. Enter a name and select a region of your choice. Afterwards, in the bucket preferences, select Access, ACL: Public Read.
Step 2: Get Access Keys
Once the bucket has been created, go to Access Keys and create an API Key for Dropshare. Note down the Access Key and Secret Key as you need them in the next step.
Step 3: Set Up Connection
Go to the Dropshare preferences, open the Connections tab, and choose to create a new Linode Conneciton.
