Files

The home page is the primary file upload surface.

Upload

The upload form accepts:

  • file: the file bytes.
  • expires: optional expiry duration.
  • visibility: unlisted, private, or public when public browse is enabled.

Anonymous uploads are allowed by default. If policy requires authentication, sign in first.

Results

A successful upload returns:

  • A page URL.
  • A raw file URL.
  • A delete token for anonymous uploads when the delete policy supports it.

Keep delete tokens private. They can delete or claim anonymous items depending on policy.

Visibility

  • unlisted: reachable by direct link.
  • private: visible only to the owning account and moderators.
  • public: visible in /browse when public browse is enabled.

Preview Pages

When features.preview_pages = true, file links open a preview page first. Otherwise, file links serve the raw file directly.

URL Upload

When features.upload_by_url = true, /url-upload lets users fetch a remote http or https URL into Midden. Operators can restrict hosts, ports, redirects, response size, and private IP access.
