How To Connect pCloud To YACSS
pCloud is a secure European cloud storage platform. By connecting your pCloud account to YACSS, you can store and serve files from your pCloud public folder directly from the platform.
Open Cloud Connectivity
In YACSS, navigate to Cloud Connectivity from the sidebar. Click Connect on the pCloud card to begin the setup process.
Prepare Your Inputs
You will need the following four values — we will retrieve them from the pCloud dashboard in the steps below.
- Client ID — From your pCloud developer app
- Client Secret — From your pCloud developer app
- Location — Either EU or US, found in pCloud Settings
- Folder ID — Extracted from your pCloud Public Folder URL
Open pCloud Dashboard
Go to my.pcloud.com and log in. In the bottom left, click More Apps and then select pCloud for Devs.

Copy Client ID & Secret
After creating the app, open it and copy the Client ID and Client Secret. Paste them into the corresponding fields in YACSS.
Create a Public Folder
Go back to the pCloud dashboard. Click Public Folder from the explore section and create a new public folder.
Find Your Folder ID
Once the public folder is created, pCloud will show you a URL like this:
https://filedn.eu/FOLDER_ID/folder-nameCopy the string that appears after .eu/ or .com/ up to the next / — that is your Folder ID. Paste it into the Folder ID field in YACSS.
Find Your Location
In the pCloud dashboard, click your profile in the bottom left and go to Settings → Account. Check the Data region — it will say either United States or European Union. Select the matching option in the Location field in YACSS.
