Amazon S3 Storage Providers
The S3 backend can be used with a number of different providers:
- {{< provider name="AWS S3" home="https://aws.amazon.com/s3/" config="/s3/#amazon-s3" >}}
- {{< provider name="Ceph" home="http://ceph.com/" config="/s3/#ceph" >}}
- {{< provider name="DigitalOcean Spaces" home="https://www.digitalocean.com/products/object-storage/" config="/s3/#digitalocean-spaces" >}}
- {{< provider name="Dreamhost" home="https://www.dreamhost.com/cloud/storage/" config="/s3/#dreamhost" >}}
- {{< provider name="IBM COS S3" home="http://www.ibm.com/cloud/object-storage" config="/s3/#ibm-cos-s3" >}}
- {{< provider name="Minio" home="https://www.minio.io/" config="/s3/#minio" >}}
- {{< provider name="Wasabi" home="https://wasabi.com/" config="/s3/#wasabi" >}}
Paths are specified as remote:bucket
(or remote:
for the lsd
command.) You may put subdirectories in too, eg remote:bucket/path/to/dir
.
Once you have made a remote (see the provider specific section above)
you can use it like this:
See all buckets
rclone lsd remote:
Make a new bucket
rclone mkdir remote:bucket
List the contents of a bucket
rclone ls remote:bucket
Sync /home/local/directory
to the remote bucket, deleting any excess
files in the bucket.
rclone sync /home/local/directory remote:bucket

--fast-list
This remote supports --fast-list
which allows you to use fewer
transactions in exchange for more memory. See the rclone
docs for more details.
--update and --use-server-modtime
As noted below, the modified time is stored on metadata on the object. It is
used by default for all operations that require checking the time a file was
last updated. It allows rclone to treat the remote more like a true filesystem,
but it is inefficient because it requires an extra API call to retrieve the
metadata.
For many operations, the time the object was last uploaded to the remote is
sufficient to determine if it is "dirty". By using --update
along with
--use-server-modtime
, you can avoid the extra API call and simply upload
files whose local modtime is newer than the time it was last uploaded.
Modified time
The modified time is stored as metadata on the object as
X-Amz-Meta-Mtime
as floating point since the epoch accurate to 1 ns.
Multipart uploads
rclone supports multipart uploads with S3 which means that it can
upload files bigger than 5GB. Note that files uploaded both with
multipart upload and through crypt remotes do not have MD5 sums.
Buckets and Regions
With Amazon S3 you can list buckets (rclone lsd
) using any region,
but you can only access the content of a bucket from the region it was
created in. If you attempt to access a bucket from the wrong region,
you will get an error, incorrect region, the bucket is not in 'XXX' region
.
Authentication
There are a number of ways to supply rclone
with a set of AWS
credentials, with and without using the environment.
The different authentication methods are tried in this order:
- Directly in the rclone configuration file (
env_auth = false
in the config file):access_key_id
andsecret_access_key
are required.session_token
can be optionally set when using AWS STS.
- Runtime configuration (
env_auth = true
in the config file):- Export the following environment variables before running
rclone
:- Access Key ID:
AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID
orAWS_ACCESS_KEY
- Secret Access Key:
AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY
orAWS_SECRET_KEY
- Session Token:
AWS_SESSION_TOKEN
(optional)
- Access Key ID:
- Or, use a named profile:
- Profile files are standard files used by AWS CLI tools
- By default it will use the profile in your home directory (eg
~/.aws/credentials
on unix based systems) file and the "default" profile, to change set these environment variables:AWS_SHARED_CREDENTIALS_FILE
to control which file.AWS_PROFILE
to control which profile to use.
- Or, run
rclone
in an ECS task with an IAM role (AWS only). - Or, run
rclone
on an EC2 instance with an IAM role (AWS only).
- Export the following environment variables before running
If none of these option actually end up providing rclone
with AWS
credentials then S3 interaction will be non-authenticated (see below).
S3 Permissions
When using the sync
subcommand of rclone
the following minimum
permissions are required to be available on the bucket being written to:
ListBucket
DeleteObject
GetObject
PutObject
PutObjectACL
Example policy:
{
"Version": "2012-10-17",
"Statement": [
{
"Effect": "Allow",
"Principal": {
"AWS": "arn:aws:iam::USER_SID:user/USER_NAME"
},
"Action": [
"s3:ListBucket",
"s3:DeleteObject",
"s3:GetObject",
"s3:PutObject",
"s3:PutObjectAcl"
],
"Resource": [
"arn:aws:s3:::BUCKET_NAME/*",
"arn:aws:s3:::BUCKET_NAME"
]
}
]
}
Notes on above:
- This is a policy that can be used when creating bucket. It assumes
thatUSER_NAME
has been created. - The Resource entry must include both resource ARNs, as one implies
the bucket and the other implies the bucket's objects.
For reference, here's an Ansible script
that will generate one or more buckets that will work with rclone sync
.
Key Management System (KMS)
If you are using server side encryption with KMS then you will find
you can't transfer small objects. As a work-around you can use the
--ignore-checksum
flag.
A proper fix is being worked on in issue #1824.
Glacier
You can transition objects to glacier storage using a lifecycle policy.
The bucket can still be synced or copied into normally, but if rclone
tries to access the data you will see an error like below.
2017/09/11 19:07:43 Failed to sync: failed to open source object: Object in GLACIER, restore first: path/to/file
In this case you need to restore
the object(s) in question before using rclone.

Here are the advanced options specific to s3 (Amazon S3 Compliant Storage Providers (AWS, Ceph, Dreamhost, IBM COS, Minio)).
--s3-chunk-size
Chunk size to use for uploading.
Any files larger than this will be uploaded in chunks of this
size. The default is 5MB. The minimum is 5MB.
Note that "--s3-upload-concurrency" chunks of this size are buffered
in memory per transfer.
If you are transferring large files over high speed links and you have
enough memory, then increasing this will speed up the transfers.
- Config: chunk_size
- Env Var: RCLONE_S3_CHUNK_SIZE
- Type: SizeSuffix
- Default: 5M
--s3-disable-checksum
Don't store MD5 checksum with object metadata
- Config: disable_checksum
- Env Var: RCLONE_S3_DISABLE_CHECKSUM
- Type: bool
- Default: false
--s3-session-token
An AWS session token
- Config: session_token
- Env Var: RCLONE_S3_SESSION_TOKEN
- Type: string
- Default: ""
--s3-upload-concurrency
Concurrency for multipart uploads.
This is the number of chunks of the same file that are uploaded
concurrently.
If you are uploading small numbers of large file over high speed link
and these uploads do not fully utilize your bandwidth, then increasing
this may help to speed up the transfers.
- Config: upload_concurrency
- Env Var: RCLONE_S3_UPLOAD_CONCURRENCY
- Type: int
- Default: 2
--s3-force-path-style
If true use path style access if false use virtual hosted style.
If this is true (the default) then rclone will use path style access,
if false then rclone will use virtual path style. See the AWS S3
docs
for more info.
Some providers (eg Aliyun OSS or Netease COS) require this set to false.
- Config: force_path_style
- Env Var: RCLONE_S3_FORCE_PATH_STYLE
- Type: bool
- Default: true
Anonymous access to public buckets
If you want to use rclone to access a public bucket, configure with a
blank access_key_id
and secret_access_key
. Your config should end
up looking like this:
[anons3]
type = s3
provider = AWS
env_auth = false
access_key_id =
secret_access_key =
region = us-east-1
endpoint =
location_constraint =
acl = private
server_side_encryption =
storage_class =
Then use it as normal with the name of the public bucket, eg
rclone lsd anons3:1000genomes
You will be able to list and copy data but not upload it.
Ceph
Ceph is an open source unified, distributed
storage system designed for excellent performance, reliability and
scalability. It has an S3 compatible object storage interface.
To use rclone with Ceph, configure as above but leave the region blank
and set the endpoint. You should end up with something like this in
your config:
[ceph]
type = s3
provider = Ceph
env_auth = false
access_key_id = XXX
secret_access_key = YYY
region =
endpoint = https://ceph.endpoint.example.com
location_constraint =
acl =
server_side_encryption =
storage_class =
Note also that Ceph sometimes puts /
in the passwords it gives
users. If you read the secret access key using the command line tools
you will get a JSON blob with the /
escaped as \/
. Make sure you
only write /
in the secret access key.
Eg the dump from Ceph looks something like this (irrelevant keys
removed).
{
"user_id": "xxx",
"display_name": "xxxx",
"keys": [
{
"user": "xxx",
"access_key": "xxxxxx",
"secret_key": "xxxxxx\/xxxx"
}
],
}
Because this is a json dump, it is encoding the /
as \/
, so if you
use the secret key as xxxxxx/xxxx
it will work fine.
Dreamhost
Dreamhost DreamObjects is
an object storage system based on CEPH.
To use rclone with Dreamhost, configure as above but leave the region blank
and set the endpoint. You should end up with something like this in
your config:
[dreamobjects]
type = s3
provider = DreamHost
env_auth = false
access_key_id = your_access_key
secret_access_key = your_secret_key
region =
endpoint = objects-us-west-1.dream.io
location_constraint =
acl = private
server_side_encryption =
storage_class =
DigitalOcean Spaces
Spaces is an S3-interoperable object storage service from cloud provider DigitalOcean.
To connect to DigitalOcean Spaces you will need an access key and secret key. These can be retrieved on the "Applications & API" page of the DigitalOcean control panel. They will be needed when promted by rclone config
for your access_key_id
and secret_access_key
.
When prompted for a region
or location_constraint
, press enter to use the default value. The region must be included in the endpoint
setting (e.g. nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com
). The defualt values can be used for other settings.
Going through the whole process of creating a new remote by running rclone config
, each prompt should be answered as shown below:
Storage> s3
env_auth> 1
access_key_id> YOUR_ACCESS_KEY
secret_access_key> YOUR_SECRET_KEY
region>
endpoint> nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com
location_constraint>
acl>
storage_class>
The resulting configuration file should look like:
[spaces]
type = s3
provider = DigitalOcean
env_auth = false
access_key_id = YOUR_ACCESS_KEY
secret_access_key = YOUR_SECRET_KEY
region =
endpoint = nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com
location_constraint =
acl =
server_side_encryption =
storage_class =
Once configured, you can create a new Space and begin copying files. For example:
rclone mkdir spaces:my-new-space
rclone copy /path/to/files spaces:my-new-space
IBM COS (S3)
Information stored with IBM Cloud Object Storage is encrypted and dispersed across multiple geographic locations, and accessed through an implementation of the S3 API. This service makes use of the distributed storage technologies provided by IBM’s Cloud Object Storage System (formerly Cleversafe).

Minio
Minio is an object storage server built for cloud application developers and devops.
It is very easy to install and provides an S3 compatible server which can be used by rclone.
To use it, install Minio following the instructions here.
When it configures itself Minio will print something like this
Endpoint: http://192.168.1.106:9000 http://172.23.0.1:9000
AccessKey: USWUXHGYZQYFYFFIT3RE
SecretKey: MOJRH0mkL1IPauahWITSVvyDrQbEEIwljvmxdq03
Region: us-east-1
SQS ARNs: arn:minio:sqs:us-east-1:1:redis arn:minio:sqs:us-east-1:2:redis
Browser Access:

Python: https://docs.minio.io/docs/python-client-quickstart-guide
JavaScript: https://docs.minio.io/docs/javascript-client-quickstart-guide
.NET: https://docs.minio.io/docs/dotnet-client-quickstart-guide
Drive Capacity: 26 GiB Free, 165 GiB Total
These details need to go into rclone config
like this. Note that it
is important to put the region in as stated above.
env_auth> 1
access_key_id> USWUXHGYZQYFYFFIT3RE
secret_access_key> MOJRH0mkL1IPauahWITSVvyDrQbEEIwljvmxdq03
region> us-east-1
endpoint> http://192.168.1.106:9000
location_constraint>
server_side_encryption>
Which makes the config file look like this
[minio]
type = s3
provider = Minio
env_auth = false
access_key_id = USWUXHGYZQYFYFFIT3RE
secret_access_key = MOJRH0mkL1IPauahWITSVvyDrQbEEIwljvmxdq03
region = us-east-1
endpoint = http://192.168.1.106:9000
location_constraint =
server_side_encryption =
So once set up, for example to copy files into a bucket
rclone copy /path/to/files minio:bucket
