| __⚠️ General restrictions__: Backblaze Storage is not a traditional file system but an object storage service. What appears to be a __folder__ is actually just a prefix in the object’s name. As a result, renaming folders is not supported. To __move__ a folder, you must copy all the objects to the new location and then delete them from the original one.\\ |
| B2 REST API does not support resumes on upload and MDTM(File modification time) changes. You can use the __S3 connection endpoint__ as a workaround. [2.
