There are five realistic integration paths. Choose based on what you are building, not on what sounds familiar.

REST storage API

This is the primary path. It is company-scoped, API-key authenticated, and documented in the API reference. Use it when:
  • you control a server,
  • you need deterministic storage semantics,
  • you want scopes and bucket restriction,
  • you can keep a secret in a secret manager.
Do not use it directly from a browser. API-key headers are not CORS-allowed. See Requests and CORS.

Laravel and PHP

The API is plain JSON over HTTPS, so any HTTP client works. The Laravel guide covers configuration, a small client wrapper, and streaming uploads.

Backup agent

The desktop agent is a first-party application that backs up a machine to Everabyte. It uses device-bound keys, not general-purpose developer keys. It is not a documented integration contract for third parties. If you need scheduled backup from a server, use the REST API with your own scheduler.

MCP server

The MCP endpoint exposes an authenticated tool surface for AI clients. It requires:
  • the mcp scope on the key,
  • a paid subscription.
Trial accounts are refused before the MCP handshake. See MCP.

S3-compatible gateway

A SigV4 gateway exists and supports common operations, but it is gated by a platform flag and not enabled by default. Do not assume S3 compatibility. See S3 compatibility.
There is no universal S3 compatibility guarantee. Documentation that says “point any S3 client at Everabyte” is inaccurate unless the gateway has been explicitly enabled for your account.

Choosing the right path

What not to expect

  • No official SDK is published at this time. Examples on this site are illustrations.
  • No public bucket provisioning API.
  • No public sharing or permission API.
  • No self-service partner onboarding.
  • No guarantee of S3 API parity.
