Uploadcare Upload API Reference
Upload API provides several ways to upload files to Uploadcare servers in a secure and reliable way.
For high-level integrations and SDKs, see available libraries.
File storage
Every uploaded file is temporary and will be deleted within 24 hours unless stored. To make a file permanent:
- On upload via the
UPLOADCARE_STOREflag - Use store or copy via the REST API
Note: UPLOADCARE_STORE=auto delegates the storage decision to the project’s auto-store setting, which is enabled by default.
File delivery
Once uploaded, files are available via the CDN. The CDN supports on-the-fly image processing and proxying.
