Creating a Folder¶
This section describes how to create a folder using OBS Browser.
Background Information¶
Unlike the file system, OBS does not involve the concepts of file and folder. For easy data management, OBS provides a method to simulate folders. On OBS, an object is simulated as a folder by adding a slash (/) to the object name on OBS Browser.
Procedure¶
Log in to OBS Browser.
Click the bucket in which you want to create a folder. Click Create Folder.
In the dialog box that is displayed, enter a folder name and click OK.
You can create single-level or multi-level folders.
The name cannot contain the following special characters:
\:*?"<>|The name cannot start or end with a period (.) or slash (/).
The folder's absolute path cannot exceed 1,023 characters.
Any single slash (/) separates and creates multiple levels of folders at once.
The name cannot contain two or more consecutive slashes (/).
In the dialog box that is displayed, click OK.
