File names overview — Uploadcare docs

Your original filenames can be accessed via REST API.

Make a request to receive a JSON response with file parameters including original_filename.

You can set an optional filename that users will see instead of the original name:

https://ucarecdn.com/:uuid/:filename

:filename should comply with file name conventions and it should be a valid part of a URL. For example, filename.ext.

Here are some examples with full CDN URLs:

Safe:
// adding a simple filename
https://ucarecdn.com/85b5644f-e692-4855-9db0-8c5a83096e25/image.jpg
// using a char allowed in the pchar definition
https://ucarecdn.com/85b5644f-e692-4855-9db0-8c5a83096e25/image@2x.jpg
// allowed in pchar together with Image Transformations
https://ucarecdn.com/85b5644f-e692-4855-9db0-8c5a83096e25/-/preview/-/resize/550x/image@1x.jpg
// using a sub-delim allowed in pchar together with Image Transformations
https://ucarecdn.com/85b5644f-e692-4855-9db0-8c5a83096e25/-/preview/-/grayscale/image_black&white@2x.jpg
// using percent-encoded gen-delims that are not allowed in pchar
https://ucarecdn.com/85b5644f-e692-4855-9db0-8c5a83096e25/-/preview/-/grayscale/image%5Bdesaturated%5D@2x.jpg
Unsafe:
// using gen-delims that are not allowed in pchar without encoding
