We've released a lighter weight (~50% reduction in image size) and more secure version of the transfer agent container image. If you're running agents that were installed on or before June 17th, 2024, we highly recommend that you delete those agents and install new agents into your agent pool. Any existing transfers using that pool will resume once the new agents are installed.

  • DIFFERENT uses ETags and checksum values to only overwrite a file if the contents have changed.
  • ALWAYS overwrites any existing files with the same name. Avoids LIST operations on the destination when transferring into Cloud Storage.

April 12, 2022

Storage Transfer Service now offers a predefined role to simplify permission assignment to transfer agents. The roles/storagetransfer.transferAgent role grants a minimum set of permissions required for the service to communicate with agents and eliminates the need to assign each permission individually.
