Credentials

1. Create an access key

  1. Open the MinIO Console (e.g. http://localhost:9001) and sign in
  2. Go to Access Keys -> Create access key
  3. Copy the Access Key and Secret Key
  4. Note your server endpoint (e.g. http://localhost:9000) and bucket name
MinIO is self-hosted, so there is no region-derived endpoint, the endpoint_url is required and MinIO uses path-style addressing.

2. Set environment variables

# .env.development
MINIO_BUCKET=my-bucket
MINIO_ENDPOINT=http://localhost:9000
MINIO_ACCESS_KEY=...
MINIO_SECRET_KEY=...
For Python configuration, see the MinIO resource docs.
