Aspera CLI

ascli is the command-line interface for IBM Aspera products. Use it from the terminal or in scripts to:

• Drive Aspera on Cloud, Faspex, Shares, Node, Console, Orchestrator, and High-Speed Transfer Server
• Call REST APIs and run high-speed transfers (FASP)
• Automate workflows with config, presets, and scripting

Choose what best suits you:

Install Ruby ≥ 3.1

gem install aspera-cli
ascli config transferd install

The second command installs the FASP transfer engine (ascp). For other install methods (single executable, Docker, Chocolatey, Homebrew), see the user manual.

Quick check:

ascli -v
