Upload files using the Windows client

Limits

• A single file can be up to 48.8 TB.

• Upload records are stored in the %appdata%/AliVodClient folder. The client displays up to 500 recent records. If you upgrade the client or clear this folder, the upload records are deleted.

Step 1: Create a RAM user and an AccessKey pair

• The RAM user is successfully created.

  For more information about how to create a RAM user, see Create a RAM user.

• The RAM user has been granted permissions to access ApsaraVideo VOD.

  For more information about how to grant permissions to a RAM user, see Manage RAM user permissions.

• Create an AccessKey pair for identity verification when you log on to the client. For more information, see Create an AccessKey pair.

• Before you upload files, enable the ApsaraVideo VOD bucket in the target region. Otherwise, the upload fails. For more information, see Manage storage buckets.
