File storage

The file storage feature allows you to upload files to a dedicated storage space.

File upload restrictions

  • The maximum file size is 1 GB.
  • The file size can not be bigger than the remaining storage space of your server.
  • To upload a file, you need to have the MANAGE_FILES permission.

File access

Files can be accessed from everywhere by all users with access to the storage location of the file. Access can be granted on a file-by-file basis or by granting access to a folder. When granting access to a folder, the access is inherited by all files in the folder and its subfolders.

When configured a file can be made publicly accessible. This means that anyone with the link to the file can access it, even if they do not have access to the storage location. By default files are not publicly accessible.

Deleting files

To delete a file, you need to have the MANAGE_FILES permission. Once a file is deleted, it can not be restored. The occupied storage space will be freed up and can be used for new files.
