How to SSH into DigitalOcean Spaces?

I am trying to migrate the files from third-party server to DigitalOcean spaces.

Due to large volumes in files, the only option I can see is download the zip file in Spaces and extract the files.

For that I need access Spaces using SSH.

Hello, @mittalyashu

You can use s3cmd in order to manage the object storage via ssh. In this way you can quickly upload the files you need. Once you have s3cmd configured you can simply upload all of your files to the Space object.

We have existing tutorials on how to use s3cmd and how to configure it as well. I will recommend you to check out this links:

Hope that this helps! Regards, Alex
