We're excited to announce the addition of two new features to [Telnyx Cloud Storage](https://telnyx.com/products/cloud-storage "Telnyx Cloud Storage"), designed to enhance your data management and sharing capabilities. As we continue to focus on providing reliable and scalable cloud storage solutions, these features aim to improve your workflow efficiency and security. Let's dive into what's new!

### Bucket Usage API

Understanding how your storage resources are utilized is crucial for effective data management. With our new [Bucket Usage API](https://developers.telnyx.com/api/cloud-storage-companion/get-storage-api-usage "Bucket Usage API"), users now have comprehensive insights into their storage usage. This feature allows users to:

- __Query API Calls__: Determine how many API calls have been made on a particular bucket over a specified time period. This insight is invaluable for tracking activity and managing API request quotas efficiently.
- __Monitor Storage Metrics__: Easily query the current size and number of objects in a particular bucket. This real-time data helps in managing storage capacity and planning for scale.

With a clear view of your API calls and Storage metrics, Telnyx users can verify their storage bills with complete transparency. 

### Pre-signed object URLs

We’re introducing Pre-signed Object URLs to help our users share files securely and efficiently. This new feature allows users to:

- __Generate Time-limited URLs__: Share files with unauthenticated and anonymous users through valid URLs for a predetermined time frame. This feature is perfect for temporarily sharing large files without compromising on security.

By controlling the accessibility and lifespan of shared files, users mitigate the risk of unauthorized access and ensure that data remains secure.

Take a look at how easy it is to generate a pre-signed URL in the portal:

Today we are excited to introduce a new feature that allows users to generate custom branded Letters of Agency (LOAs) on their port orders, turning what was a historically manual process into something that can easily be completed in a few simple steps.

__Here’s what you need to know:__

* **Customized branding**: Users can now create custom Letter of Agency (LOA) templates for their port orders. This enables their own company's information and branding to be applied on the generated LOA. This will replace the default Telnyx-branded LOA template. 
* __Shareable LOA links__: After generating an LOA, users can create a shareable link. This link can be sent to clients, making it convenient for them to sign and attach the LOA to the port order on their behalf.

**Getting started**

To get started with this new feature, navigate to the “Port Numbers” tab in the Mission Control Portal, and then start customizing under the “[Customize LOA](https://portal.telnyx.com/#/app/numbers/customize-loa)” section. To learn more about this feature, please visit our support article [here](https://support.telnyx.com/en/articles/8588086-auto-generated-letter-of-authorization-loa).
