Hi guys/gals,

Was just wondering what methods people are using to upload files efficiently to their AWS instances?

Cheers!

Yeah for some reason my drag n' drop only works one way (instance > desktop) so I'm locked into Google Drive. Does mean there is a good deal of file management involved...

Hey Tom!!!

Do you know how to upload files to an app on X.io. I want to test benchmark scenes in blender on X.io...Can't find how. tried the drag and drop but doesn't seem to work. wonder if it's even in the beta or possible at the moment tho.

Nah it opens in a web browser window. I asked Otoy in the meantime and got this answer :

''If you want to load files in, you'll need to write an integration with our API (see http://docs.x.io/v1/docs/file-providers).
If you're looking for a more complete solution, OTOY will be releasing something for users early next year, but I don't have any details on that right now.''

The silence around octane cloud is killing me! Release details already!!! LOL
