Reviewed on April 02, 2025

Scaleway Object Storage offers several storage classes to choose from depending on the performance, access, resiliency, and cost requirements of your workloads. The Scaleway console allows you to edit the storage class of objects individually.

Before you start

To complete the actions presented below, you must have:

• A Scaleway account logged into the console
• Owner status or IAM permissions allowing you to perform actions in the intended Organization
• An Object Storage bucket

1. Click Object Storage in the Storage section of the side menu. The list of your buckets displays.
2. Click the name of the bucket containing the object you want to edit. The list of objects displays.
3. Click more icon next to the object that you want to transfer to another storage class. A pop-up displays.
4. Select a storage class from the drop-down menu.
   Important

   If you transfer objects to Glacier class, you might have to restore your data at a later date. To facilitate the steps of restoration and ensure fast restitution of your data, we recommend you use average-sized files (larger than 1 MB).
