Exploring Tardigrade: first steps

ACCOUNT SETUP:
(Full Tutorial here) – https://documentation.tardigrade.io/setup/account
You’ll want to set up an account. Basically, you choose a Satellite – the majority of users select their Satellite based on geographic proximity. After that, you’ll receive an email. Verify your email address, and you’ll be able to log in.

CREATE A PROJECT:
(Tutorial here) – https://documentation.tardigrade.io/setup/project
After you’ve set up your account, log in and click “Create a Project”. Then name your project and click “Create Project”. After you’ve created your project, you’ll be prompted to create your first API key

CREATE AN API KEY:
(Full Tutorial here) – https://documentation.tardigrade.io/setup/api-key
After you’ve created a project, click “API Key” in the sidebar. Click “Create New API Key”. Then name your API key and click “Create API Key”. Copy and save the API key to someplace secure. You won’t be able to display your API key again – it’s only displayed once

CREATE A BUCKET & UPLOAD OBJECTS VIA CLI OR API
(Tutorial here) – https://documentation.tardigrade.io/setup/buckets-objects
Creating buckets and uploading objects does not occur on the web interface. To upload and download data securely, we require encryption keys, which we do not expose in the browser for utmost privacy and security.

To create buckets and upload objects, you will need to interact with our Uplink CLI, S3 Gateway or Client Libraries.

Get started with our Uplink CLI for MacOS, Windows, or Linux: https://documentation.tardigrade.io/api-reference/uplink-cli

We’ll be posting a video tutorial on making your first bucket soon.
