How To Connect Linode To YACSS
Linode (now Akamai Cloud) is a reliable and developer-friendly cloud platform offering scalable object storage for businesses worldwide. YACSS allows you to connect your Linode account to manage cloud storage and deploy your content seamlessly alongside your other workflows.
Open Cloud Connectivity
In YACSS, navigate to Cloud Connectivity from the sidebar. Click Connect on the Linode card to begin the setup process.
Prepare Your Inputs
You will need three things: a Name (any label you choose), a Key, and a Secret Key. We will retrieve both keys from the Linode dashboard in the next steps.
- Name — Any name you want to identify this connection
- Key — Access Key from Linode Object Storage
- Secret Key — Secret Key from Linode Object Storage
Open Linode Dashboard
