Uploads overview

There are five major ways to upload files to your Uploadcare project:

• Using our File Uploader.
• Using our Upload API directly.
• Integrating with a framework of your choice, API clients.
• Migrating existing media upload-free using our Media Proxy.
• CMS-based and non-coder ready, using our Plugins and Integrations.

File Uploading works on a per-project basis. Regardless of how you upload files, you will have to specify your project’s Public Key, and Secret Key for some cases like secure uploads.

Once a file gets uploaded, you recieve a CDN link with its unique identifier, UUID. You can learn more about UUIDs from our Delivery docs section.

Every uploaded file is stored on the Uploadcare Storage and gets cached by our CDN and can be safely and reliably delivered across 220K servers in 130+ countries.

We also provide content validation and image edition, and many other options with our File Uploader.
