Quotaless
Connect to Quotaless in AeroFTP using either S3 or WebDAV. Use the S3 profile if you want an object-storage workflow, or WebDAV if you prefer a more file-oriented connection style.
Why Use AeroFTP with Quotaless
AeroFTP gives you a desktop GUI for Quotaless instead of a browser-only workflow.
- Browse files in a dual-pane desktop interface
- Save Quotaless profiles securely in the OS keyring
- Upload, download, rename, and organize files from one app
- Reuse the same client for Quotaless, SFTP servers, cloud drives, and other storage providers
Quotaless is supported in AeroFTP through two built-in presets:
- Quotaless S3
- Quotaless WebDAV
Supported Connection Modes
| Mode | Supported in AeroFTP | Recommended | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| S3 | Yes | Yes | Best for bucket-based object storage workflows |
| WebDAV | Yes | Optional | Good if you prefer file-like browsing |

Which Mode Should You Choose?
Choose S3 if you:
- mainly work with object storage

Choose WebDAV if you:
- prefer a username/password setup
- want file-oriented browsing behavior
- already use Quotaless through a WebDAV workflow
Troubleshooting
| Problem | Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Authentication failed | Wrong credential type for the selected mode | Use S3 keys for S3, username/password for WebDAV |
| Connection timeout | Wrong host, port, or temporary network issue | Verify io.quotaless.cloud, port 8000 for S3 and 8080 for WebDAV |
| Bucket not found | Wrong S3 bucket name | Double-check the bucket name in your Quotaless account |
| WebDAV opens the wrong path | Incorrect URL entered manually | Prefer the Quotaless WebDAV preset |
