Assets ​

Assets (System > Assets) is a small file browser for publicly served files. Anything you upload here gets a public URL, which is exactly what the Icon and Banner fields in Settings > Application expect: those fields autocomplete from your uploaded assets.

The browser shows a breadcrumb (starting at assets) and a table with Name, Size, and Created. Click a directory to enter it, click a file name to open it in a new tab, and use the search box to find assets in the current directory by name.

Uploading and Organizing ​

  • Upload picks files from your machine; you can also drag and drop files anywhere on the page ("Drop files here to upload"). Uploads continue if you navigate away, with a progress toast ("Uploading 3 files to the admin assets...") whose close button cancels them and whose Show files button brings you back here. There is no restriction on file type or size here - the panel stores whatever you give it and serves it publicly, so treat this as a trusted-admin surface and don't upload anything you wouldn't publish.
  • New Directory previews the full path for a new folder inside the current one; the folder itself isn't created until you upload a file into it.

Managing Assets ​

Right-click a file for:

  • Copy Link: copies the asset's public URL.
  • Delete: removes the asset after confirmation. Deletion cannot be undone.

You can also select multiple files (checkboxes, Ctrl+click, drag selection, or Ctrl+A for everything on the page) and delete them in one go with the action bar or the Delete key.

Public URLs ​

With the default filesystem storage driver, assets are served by the panel itself at <panel URL>/assets/<path>, e.g. https://panel.example.com/assets/branding/icon.png. With the S3 storage driver, links use the bucket's configured Public URL instead. The storage driver is set in Settings > Storage.

Uploading requires the assets.upload admin permission, deleting assets.delete, viewing assets.read. See the Permissions Reference.
