Uploading Files via the Dashboard
The Storage file manager lets you upload, organise, and manage objects without any S3 tooling.
Upload files
- Open your bucket under Storage.
- Click Upload, or drag files directly onto the file list.
- Select one or more files — you can queue many at once.
- Watch progress in the upload panel. Large files are uploaded in multiple parts automatically and resumed if a part fails.
Organising with folders
Object storage has no real folders, but you can use prefixes that behave like them. Type a path such as images/2026/ when uploading, or use New Folder, and your files are grouped under that prefix.
Tips
- Uploads go straight from your browser to the storage node, so speed depends on your connection.
- Re-uploading a file with the same name overwrites the existing object.
- For very large or scripted uploads, use the S3 API instead.
If an upload fails
A failed upload is usually a browser or network interruption, or a cross-origin (CORS) restriction when uploading from a custom domain. Retry the upload; if it persists, confirm you are uploading from the CDNShark dashboard and contact support with the file name and any browser console error.
