Uploading Files

Cogni makes it easy to upload files to IPFS directly through its platform. Follow these steps:

  1. Drag and Drop Your File

    • Navigate to the Upload Section on the Cogni website.

    • Drag and drop your file into the designated area or click the upload button to select a file manually.

  2. File Processing

    • The file will be broken into smaller pieces and uploaded to the IPFS network.

    • Once the upload is complete, you will receive a Content Identifier (CID).

  3. Generate a Custom Link

    • Cogni automatically generates a custom link for your file:

      https://ipfs.cogni.host/ipfs/<CID>

    • Share this link to give others access to your file.

  4. Pinning Your File

    • To ensure long-term availability, Cogni pins your file to its IPFS node. You can also pin it to your own node using:

      ipfs pin add <CID>

  5. Accessing Your File

    • Anyone with the custom link can access the file via a browser or an IPFS node.
