# Request content directly from the storage

Object Storage and SFTP Storage use different URL formats. Find the hostname in the [service URLs](/storage/manage-object-storage/s3-service-urls-and-default-region-names) list or in the **Details** section on the **Storages** tab of the [Gcore Customer Portal](https://portal.gcore.com).

The URL format differs between Object Storage and SFTP Storage:

| Storage type   | URL format                                  | Notes                                                     |
| -------------- | ------------------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------- |
| Object Storage | `http(s)://<bucket-name>.<hostname>/<file>` | HTTP and HTTPS supported                                  |
| SFTP Storage   | `https://<storage-name>.<hostname>/<file>`  | Upload files to `htdocs`; omit the directory from the URL |

Examples:

* Object Storage — bucket `mybucket`, file `picture.png`, Luxembourg location:
  ```sh theme={null}
  http://mybucket.s-ed1.cloud.gcore.lu/picture.png
  ```
* SFTP Storage — storage `12345-test`, file uploaded to `htdocs/picture.png` at `ams.origin.gcdn.co`:
  ```sh theme={null}
  https://12345-test.ams.origin.gcdn.co/picture.png
  ```
