MASV Agent Release Notes
Learn about the latest updates to the MASV Agent
MASV Agent is a cross-platform service that manages file transfers to and from MASV. It functions primarily as a CLI tool, but uses a local REST API server under the hood that can be called directly.
It supports the upload and download of multiple packages simultaneously, while abstracting file system interactions. The MASV Agent is used to transfer terabytes of data every day, reliably and quickly. It is also stateful—it stores metadata about transfers and user sessions in order to carry out its responsibilities and survive interruptions and shutdowns.
For more information about installing, updating or working with the MASV Agent and creating custom functions with the MASV API, see MASV Developer Documentation.
Note: Using Docker? If you're updating, please see instructions for Updating MASV Agent.
