Using Impossible Cloud with AWS CLI
There are two ways to use Impossible Cloud with the AWS CLI.
Method 1
The first method involves adding the following subcommand after every command:
--endpoint-url=https://eu-central-2.storage.impossibleapi.net
For example, if you want to list your buckets in the CLI, please type:
or use a specific profile:
Method 2
To make it easier to access third-party S3 providers, you can use the awscli-plugin-endpoint plugin, but you will need to create an additional profile along with the default one. To create this profile, you can add a "profile" line at the end of the config file located in the ".aws" directory in your home directory.
Add a line profile line at the end of the config file like this at the end of the file:
After you've added the "profile" line to the config file, be sure to save the file.
Once you have created a profile, you can follow the instructions provided on the plugin's GitHub page, which you can find at this link: https://github.com/wbinglee/awscli-plugin-endpoint. By doing so, you should be able to use "--profile impossiblecloud" after every command instead of having to type out the entire URL.
For instance, if you wish to list your buckets using the AWS CLI, simply type:
If you need to create a bucket in a specific region, you have to use the appropriate regional endpoint to make a request. For example if you need to create a new bucket in the eu-west-1 region:
aws s3api create-bucket --profile impossiblecloud --endpoint-url https://eu-west-1.storage.impossibleapi.net --bucket mytestbucket If you were using another regional endpoint, then the bucket will be created in that endpoint. The parameters --region and --create-bucket-configuration LocationConstraint are ignored.
