It is possible to set a default storage to where one shall upload as well as uploading for a certain session. When selecting a different storage than default iconik will have that setting selected until reloading the page or re-logging.
Select Default Storage
By selecting a default storage the upload page will have the default selected and unless changed on the upload page will be uploaded to.
The storage types which are acceptable as default is Amazon S3 buckets, BackBlaze B2, Google Cloud Storage and Microsoft Azure.

Not selecting a default will let iconik select in which storage the files are stored.
