- Real-world use case 02
Rapid bucket provisioning
A developer needs a private bucket for logs and tells the agent to create a new one with allPrivate permissions.
- Real-world use case 03
Auditing asset integrity
A sysadmin wants to verify the SHA1 of a production file and uses get_file_info to pull the metadata.

These are the exact actions your AI can choose when you ask it to work with Backblaze B2.
01—04
4 capabilities in this set.
Part of 10 available through Backblaze B2.
- 01 Capability
Create bucket
This capability provisions a fresh logical Storage Bucket partition. It bootstraps essential structures before assigning automated backup syncs.
- 02 Capability
Delete file version
This capability irreversibly vaporizes specific absolute chunk data from disk arrays. It instantly removes the storage footprint to avoid long-term retention hoarding.
- 03 Capability
Get file info
This capability obtains granular checksum and headers associated with one precise B2 File. It retrieves specific file details, sizes, and hashes natively.
- 04 Capability
Hide file
This capability marks an active B2 file as hidden leaving data for lifecycle sweep. It injects a null-marker shadowing the actual file to ensure it is ignored by lists.
05—07
3 capabilities in this set.
Part of 10 available through Backblaze B2.
- 05 Capability
List buckets
This capability retrieves the exact Storage Buckets existing globally on the B2 Account. It is crucial for resolving immutable String Bucket IDs for downstream operations.
- 06 Capability
Authorize account
This capability finds your specific regional data ingress endpoints to ensure your agent talks to the right data center. It verifies and extracts Backblaze global session routing endpoints.
- 07 Capability
Delete bucket
This capability irreversibly deletes an entirely empty Backblaze Storage Bucket. It fails intentionally if standard files or hidden object versions persist.
08—10
3 capabilities in this set.
Part of 10 available through Backblaze B2.
- 08 Capability
List file names
This capability paginates primary surface-level object metadata from a specific Bucket. It examines precise file locations while avoiding hidden shadowed states.
- 09 Capability
List unfinished large files
This capability scans B2 nodes for stalled Multipart Upload chunk aggregates. It is crucial for verifying broken API pipelines from external S3 clients.
- 10 Capability
Update bucket
This capability mutates global ACL privacy settings for a bounded Bucket. It should only be used for static asset endpoints.

Before you connect
Questions about Backblaze B2.
The practical details behind the request, access and result.
Can I use the Backblaze B2 MCP to manage my cloud files?
Yes, this Connector lets you perform actions like creating buckets, listing files, and updating privacy settings through your AI client.
How does the Backblaze B2 MCP help with storage costs?
It helps you identify and remove old file versions and find stalled uploads, which helps prevent unnecessary storage charges.
Can I use this to delete files?
You can use it to permanently delete specific file versions or hide them from your list to prepare them for a lifecycle sweep.
Is it safe to use this for public buckets?
Yes, you can use it to toggle the privacy settings of your buckets to ensure your assets are either public or private as needed.
What happens if I try to delete a bucket that isn't empty?
The Connector will return an error because Backblaze requires buckets to be empty before deletion. You'll need to remove the files first.
Can I check if my files are corrupted?
You can use it to retrieve SHA1 hashes and other metadata for specific files to verify their integrity.
Can my AI agent debug broken uploads in Backblaze B2?
Yes. Ask your agent to list unfinished large files. It detects multipart upload shards that disconnected before completion, which consume billing quota. It provides granular visibility so you can safely clear dead streams via API.
Can the agent make my private bucket publicly accessible to serve CDN assets?
Yes. If commanded, the agent can update the bucket privacy setting from 'allPrivate' to 'allPublic'. This instantly routes objects to be fetched securely using friendly URLs for front-end hosting or CDN origins.
How does the agent handle file deletion safely using B2 protocol?
The agent can perform both soft deletes (hide file marker, triggering lifecycle purge later) or absolute hard version deletes. If you tell the agent to 'hide the file', the file remains physically safe but vanishes from directory listings.
