Managing Access Keys for Object Storage on FPT Portal
The Access Key and Private Key pair is the basic authentication method for the FPT Object Storage service. To use a bucket through methods other than the Portal, such as SDK, API, or S3 Client, you need the following information:
- Access Key
- Private Key
- Endpoint
- Region (optional)
All of this information will be fully available on the FPT Unify Portal. Store this information carefully. Access Keys created in the Access Key tab all have Admin-level permissions, so you could lose all data in your buckets if this information is exposed. If you need to share bucket access with multiple people, or store a key in an insecure application, create SubUsers with limited access and use SubUser Access Keys instead. If you discover that a key has been exposed, go to FPT Portal immediately and delete that key to prevent further risks.
Create an Admin Access Key
Currently each account can create a maximum of 5 Admin Access Key pairs per region. If you need more than 5 key pairs, create additional SubUsers. For security reasons, the Secret Key is only displayed once at the time of creation. Store it carefully in a safe location to avoid losing access to your buckets.
- Go to the Object Storage menu → select the Access Key tab → select Region.
- Click the Generate Key button.
- The system generates an Access Key and Secret Key pair.
- Copy and store the key in a safe location, then click Confirm Access Key to complete.
Delete an Access Key
After deletion, all applications or clients using that key will no longer have access.
- Go to the Object Storage menu → Access Key tab → select Region.
- Find the Access Key to delete → select Delete in the action column.
- Confirm deletion when the dialog appears.
Get Endpoint Information
The Endpoint is the HTTPS address used to connect to FPT Object Storage. Each region has a different endpoint.
- Go to the Object Storage menu → Access Key tab → select Region.
- In the Endpoint column, you can copy the corresponding URL.
