WASABI AWS CLI SETUP

✅ Step-by-Step Instructions to Use Wasabi with AWS CLI

🔹 1. Create Wasabi Access Keys

• Go to your Wasabi console and create a new access key.

• Save the following securely:

  • Access Key: **********
  • Secret Key: ************************************

---

🔹 2. Configure AWS CLI with Wasabi Profile

In your terminal, run:

aws configure --profile wasabi

Enter the following when prompted:

• AWS Access Key ID: *******************
• AWS Secret Access Key: **************************
• Default region name: us-east-1
• Default output format: json

✅ This creates a named profile wasabi in your ~/.aws/credentials and ~/.aws/config.

🔹 3. List Contents of a Wasabi S3 Bucket

Use the AWS CLI with a custom endpoint URL for Wasabi:

aws s3 ls s3://<bucket-name-only> --endpoint-url=https://s3.wasabisys.com --profile wasabi

This will return a file listing similar to:

2024-08-29 14:52:17   12265306 file1.m4v
2024-09-23 16:05:09   29653097 file2.mp4

📌 Note: Wasabi is S3-compatible but requires the --endpoint-url=https://s3.wasabisys.com flag.

🛠 Troubleshooting Tips

• If you see Access Denied:

  • Double-check the bucket permissions.
  • Ensure the access key has permission to list/read the bucket (s3:ListBucket, s3:GetObject).
  • Validate bucket region (e.g., if using us-east-1, make sure the bucket was created in that region).
