Hi all, I have a new Storj account which I’d like to use to backup data from my TrueNAS ElectricEel-24.10.1 system. In Storj, I’ve created a new bucket. I’ve created a new access key for trueNAS where I granted Full Access. Now in TrueNAS, when I try to define a new TrueCloud Backup Task, when I…

I don’t know the reason but using a bucket created in storj web interface did not work for me either. Selecting “Add new” in TrueNAS is working.

[image] TrueNAS backups and differences between Storj and Storj (iX) Product Discussions You cannot see buckets created using a Storj DCS account that you did not create from inside the IX-Systems software through their signup link . TrueNAS is displaying only buckets which…

So over 2 years iXsystems did nothing to make this more user-friendly? :roll_eyes: How about using “Amazon S3” instead of “Storj iX” in TrueNAS to connect existing storj buckets? Could this work or am I missing something? :thinking:

Just don’t use the “integration”. It’s a pathetic half-baked nonsense. They don’t even use native storj integration - it’s still s3 anyway.

Hello @justinb , Welcome to the forum! You have several options: You can request to delete your current account and create a new one using the special link: TrueNAS iX-Storj Cloud Storage: Secure Data Solutions , it’s also available from the TrueNAS UI. You can request to apply the required value …

[image] Alexey: They did. You may create a new bucket bucket from the TrueNAS UI and it will allow to select it, even if this is a usual Storj account without IX system value attribution (they would add it for that specific bucket). This is does not help. There is no reason for them to create…

It actually works, they add a needed tuning out of the box when you use a Storj S3 credentials rather than a Generic ones (you do not have a required options in the UI). Also: [image] Open Source Revenue Models in the Cloud Era TrueNAS and Storj works better to…

Add to the confusion here that Storj’s own documentation for TrueNAS instructs you to create the bucket through the UI: TrueNAS Integration with Storj for Secure Data Storage - Storj Docs I’m also unsure of how to create this bucket without granting TrueNAS permission to my entire account? Seems if…

Hello @g-de , Welcome to the forum! The instruction for users, who registered using a special link from TrueNAS, then the required value attribution will be added automatically, so doesn’t matter how to create a bucket - using a Storj Console, or TrueNAS itself. However, there is a difference in s…

Ok I’ve contacted support to try have the attribute added to my account. Having to use RClone, or contact support if I ever want to create additional compatible archive buckets seems very counter-intuitive, so hopefully it can be set once at account level and that be it.
