KelpConnect Cloudflare R2
Cloudflare R2 speaks the S3 API, so Kelp connects to it with the access key from an R2 API token.
Create an access key
- In the Cloudflare dashboard, open R2 Object Storage. Copy your Account ID from the overview page. You need it for the endpoint.
- Choose Manage API tokens, then Create API token.
- Give it the Object Read & Write permission. If you limit it to specific buckets, see No buckets are listed.
- Create the token and copy the Access Key ID and Secret Access Key. Cloudflare shows the secret only once.
Connection settings
| Setting | What to enter |

Add it to Kelp
- In Kelp, choose Add connection and pick Cloudflare R2.
- Enter a name you'll recognise, then paste your access key ID and secret access key.
- Fill in the connection settings from the table above.
- Choose Test connection. When it succeeds, choose Save.
Kelp saves your secret access key in the macOS Keychain. It's never written to a settings file or a log.
