Sauce Storage is a private temporary storage space. Files uploaded will expire seven days after upload, and be removed.  If it has been over seven days since you uploaded your application to Sauce Storage, you will need to upload it again. You can upload the application you want to test to Sauce Storage using our REST API, and then access it for testing by specifying sauce-storage:myapp for the app capability in your test script.  You upload apps using  the  upload_file  method of the Sauce Labs REST API. 

You can use any REST client; cURL is a convenient command-line option.
