# Filebase

> Connect Filebase buckets as sources and destinations for transfer tasks.

Filebase — zero-egress S3-compatible object storage with a single global endpoint.

## At a Glance

|                   |                                                   |
| ----------------- | ------------------------------------------------- |
| **Region**        | Not needed (handled automatically)                |
| **Endpoint URL**  | Optional — defaults to `https://s3.filebase.io`   |
| **Credentials**   | Access key — `access_key_id`, `secret_access_key` |
| **Task defaults** | `s3_no_check_bucket: true`, `fast_list: true`     |

## Credentials

Create a [secret](/secrets) with the **Filebase** provider type. The auth method is
`filebase_access_key`, which requires:

| Field               | Description                |
| ------------------- | -------------------------- |
| `access_key_id`     | Filebase access key ID     |
| `secret_access_key` | Filebase secret access key |

Find your access keys in the Filebase dashboard under **Access Keys**.

## Location Setup

| Field             | Value                                           |
| ----------------- | ----------------------------------------------- |
| **region**        | Leave blank                                     |
| **endpoint\_url** | Optional — defaults to `https://s3.filebase.io` |

Leave the endpoint blank to use the default.

Example:

| Field          | Example value   |
| -------------- | --------------- |
| name           | `Filebase IPFS` |
| location\_type | Filebase        |
| bucket\_name   | `acme-pins`     |

## Provider Quirks

The legacy `https://s3.filebase.com` endpoint is also accepted — enter it in the endpoint field
if your existing tooling still points there.

## Importing from rclone.conf

Filebase has no `provider =` value of its own in rclone, so real configs write
`provider = Other`. The importer recognizes Filebase remotes by their endpoint hostname
(`s3.filebase.io` or the legacy `s3.filebase.com`) instead of falling back to S3 Compatible. See
the [rclone import guide](/guides/import-rclone-config).
