Using Cloudberry for Uploads to Your File Room

Installation

This guide walks you through installing and configuring CloudBerry for use with your Nextpoint File Room.

To start, download and install the CloudBerry for Amazon S3 client.

Setting Up CloudBerry

1. Open CloudBerry.
2. From the main menu, select "Tools" > "Options", then open the "Copy/Move" tab.
3. Change the Permissions Inheritance dropdown to "Do not inherit".
4. Click "OK".
5. In the right-hand window, open the dropdown menu and select "New Storage Account", then choose "Amazon S3".

6. Complete the "Add new Amazon S3 account" form. These credentials can be found in Nextpoint under Settings > Import.

   

   For more details on requesting and managing credentials, see our Managing AWS S3 Credentials article.

   Credential Field Reference

   • Display Name: Enter a name that will help you identify this account later.
   • Access Key: Corresponds to the Access Key ID value in Nextpoint.
   • Secret Key: Corresponds to the Secret Access Key value in Nextpoint.
   • Enable the "Use SSL" checkbox.

   

7. Open the Source dropdown and select the Display Name created in the previous step.

8. Replace the "root" value directly beneath the Source dropdown with the File Room path value found on the Import settings page in Nextpoint, then press Return.

   Optional Tip

   To make this account easier to access in the future, click the blank star icon in the root folder window to save it as a favorite. This prevents the need to re-enter the folder path during future sessions.

   

9. On the left side of the interface, select the "My Computer" tab.
10. You are now connected to your File Room and can begin transferring files.
11. Select a file or folder, then click "Copy". The selected items will begin uploading to the File Room.
