Files

A file field accepts multipart uploads; local disk is the zero-config default, or point at any S3-compatible bucket. Multi-file fields support PocketBase’s append/remove convention: a field named field+ appends newly uploaded files without disturbing the rest, field- removes named files (deleting their storage blobs, not just the JSON list entry), and an unsuffixed field name fully replaces. ?thumb=WxH (and the f/t/b fit variants) generates and caches an image thumbnail on first request. Files on a protected field need a short-lived token from POST /api/files/token instead of a bearer header, for embedding a gated file where an Authorization header can’t be sent (e.g. an <img src>).
