Copy files from FTP servers to MinIO

In this demo we show how you can use Transloadit's API to copy files from FTP servers to MinIO.

Once you set up the recipes, Transloadit can do this for you automatically.

Optionally you could also transform the files between the import from FTP servers and the export to MinIO.

You can for example encode videos, optimize images, detect faces, and much more.

Step 1:

Import files from FTP servers

We are happy to import from whatever storage solution suits you best.Learn more

"imported": {
  "robot": "/ftp/import",
  "result": true,

  "path": "my_source_folder/"
}

/ftp/import

This bot imports whole libraries of files from your FTP servers into Transloadit. This Robot relies on password access. For more security, consider our /sftp/import Robot

Step 2:

Export files to MinIO

We export to the storage platform of your choice.Learn more

imported

"exported": {
  "use": "imported",
  "robot": "/minio/store",
  "result": true,
  "credentials": "YOUR_MINIO_CREDENTIALS"
}

/minio/store

This bot exports encoding results to MinIO buckets
