Wasabi
Wasabi is S3-compatible storage with a flat storage price and no download fees.
-
Create a bucket. In the Wasabi console, create a bucket. Note its region, for example
us-east-1oreu-central-1. -
Create an access key. Create an access key and copy the Access Key ID and Secret Access Key. The secret is shown only once.
-
Make the files publicly readable. Add a bucket policy that allows public reads, or serve the bucket through a CDN.
-
Fill in OmniOffloader. Go to OmniOffloader → Settings, choose Wasabi and fill in the fields below.
-
Click Test Connection, then save your settings.
Fields
Section titled “Fields”| Field | Example | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Access Key ID | ABCD… |
Your Wasabi access key. |
| Secret Access Key | •••••••• |
Never shown again after you save. |
| Bucket Name | my-site-media |
Exactly as in the Wasabi console. |
| Region | us-east-1 |
The bucket’s region. Empty means us-east-1. |
| Custom Domain / CDN URL (Optional) | https://media.yourdomain.com |
Your CDN domain, if you use one. |
There is no endpoint field. OmniOffloader builds the Wasabi endpoint from the region for you, for example https://s3.eu-central-1.wasabisys.com.
If you leave Custom Domain / CDN URL empty, media is served from https://s3.<region>.wasabisys.com/<bucket> (or https://s3.wasabisys.com/<bucket> for us-east-1).
Good to know
Section titled “Good to know”- The region must be right. The endpoint comes from the region, so a wrong region means OmniOffloader cannot find the bucket.
- Public access. Wasabi buckets are private by default. If offloaded images open with
AccessDenied, add a public-read bucket policy or put a CDN in front of the bucket.
Common problems
Section titled “Common problems”| What you see | Likely cause |
|---|---|
Connection failed: … 403 … |
The keys are wrong, or the key has no access to this bucket. |
Connection failed: … with a region or redirect error |
The Region is not the bucket’s region. |
| Test Connection works but images are broken | The bucket is private and has no public-read policy or CDN. |
