Backblaze B2

Before you begin

A Backblaze B2 account with a bucket already created.

Steps

  1. In the B2 console, create a bucket and note its region (e.g. us-west-004).
  2. Create an Application Key with read/write access to that bucket.
  3. In Universal Storage → Settings, choose provider preset Backblaze B2 (S3 API).
  4. Set Endpoint to https://s3.<REGION>.backblazeb2.com, using the S3-compatible endpoint for your bucket’s region.
  5. Enter the Application Key ID and Application Key, then Test connection.

Verify it worked

Test connection passes all steps. Uploading a test image (see Your first upload) shows the file in your B2 bucket.

Troubleshooting

Connection fails — B2 has both a native API and an S3-compatible API; make sure you’re using the S3-compatible endpoint and an Application Key (not a native-API-only key).
