The exo storage command, part of the Exoscale CLI (exo), manages object storage buckets and objects on Exoscale's cloud platform. Exoscale offers scalable, S3-compatible storage for backups, media, and data lakes.

Key operations include creating/deleting buckets, listing buckets/objects, uploading/downloading files, managing ACLs, and generating presigned URLs. It integrates seamlessly with Exoscale's IaaS services like compute instances and Kubernetes.

Authentication uses API tokens configured via exo config. Supports JSON/YAML output for scripting. Ideal for DevOps workflows, with pagination for large listings and zone-specific operations (e.g., CH-DATA, AT-VIE).

Install via pip install exo-cli or package managers. Requires Python 3.7+. Enhances productivity over web UI for bulk tasks.

Requires Exoscale account and API keys; not available on all Linux distros by default. Subcommands have additional specific options.

pip install exo-cli or brew install exo; verify with exo version.

Run exo account login or set EXOSCALE_API_KEY/EXOSCALE_API_SECRET env vars.
