File Store

Introduction

File Store is a Catalyst Cloud Scale component that provides cloud storage to securely store, manage, and organize both application files and user data. It supports a wide range of file types, including images, videos, documents, spreadsheets, and text files, which can be organized into folders for easy management. Whether you’re storing assets like app icons, user profile pictures, or user documents, the robust storage system powered by Catalyst ensures durability, scalability, and seamless file access, including downloading files to your local machine whenever needed.

Note: Catalyst now offers you a brand new object storage component called Stratus in Early Access mode. This component is a significant upgrade to the current Cloud Scale File Store component. You can find out more about the Stratus component here.

To use the Stratus component in the Early Access mode, email us at support@zohocatalyst.com.

You can create multiple folders and store each of the related files in a folder. You can also set permissions for folders and define the access level granted for each of the user roles to each folder. Catalyst does not allow you to create sub-folders within your folders.

Note: Catalyst provides 1 GB of File Store space for each project in the development environment. There are no upper limits for storage in the production environment.

SDK and API documentation

You can create, update, and delete folders, upload and delete files directly from the console, or by using the SDKs. Catalyst also provides APIs to perform File Store operations. For more information and code samples on working in these programming environments, refer to these help pages:
