Upload

This API endpoint allows you to add a file to the decentralized storage.

Good to know: Upload API automatically checks the NFT holder storage quota.

If using API for uploading, files are not encrypted. Do not store any private or sensitive information in an unencrypted way. If you want encryption out of the box consider using our PollinationX SDK.
