Managing Folder Regions
As an administrator, you can manage the storage region setting of any folder within your Files.com site using the CLI App.
List All Folders Assigned to Storage Regions
files-cli behaviors list --filter-by="behavior=storage_region"
Apply a Storage Region to a Folder
files-cli behaviors create --path="path/to/folder" --behavior="storage_region" --value="VALUE"
In the above example, replace VALUE with the value that corresponds to the storage region:
| Region | Value |
|---|---|
| USA, Virginia | us-east-1 |
| Australia, Sydney | ap-southeast-2 |
| Canada, Toronto | ca-central-1 |
| UK, London | eu-west-2 |
| EU - Germany, Frankfurt | eu-central-1 |
| Japan, Tokyo | ap-northeast-1 |
| Singapore | ap-southeast-1 |
Update the Storage Region of a Folder
Find the ID of the behavior by listing all folders that are assigned to a storage region. Then use the ID in the following command:
files-cli behaviors update --id=12345 --value="VALUE"
Remove a Storage Region from a Folder
Removing a storage region from a folder will return the folder to inheriting the storage region of its parent.
Find the ID of the behavior by listing all folders that are assigned to a storage region. Then use the ID in the following command:
