Installing S3Express

Before installation, get API access settings in the NGN Cloud management console. Click the user login in the top right corner, select Profile Get API access settings.

S3Express utility is distributed as an executable file and is compatible with all Windows versions. You can download the latest version from the official download page. It does not require any additional libraries or software to run.
