Organizing

Folders, breadcrumbs, rename, move, delete. The Finder-style basics.

Files organize into folders. Folders can nest as deep as you want.

Folders

  • + New folder in the toolbar. Or right-click anywhere → New folder.
  • Double-click to open a folder.
  • Breadcrumbs at the top of every folder show the full path — click any segment to jump back.
  • Right-click a folder → context menu: Open, Rename, Delete.

Deleting folders

Folder delete is recursive: the folder, every sub-folder, and every file inside is permanently removed from storage. The confirmation makes this explicit. Underlying S3 objects are deleted too — no orphans.

Use this carefully. There's no undo.

Files

  • Double-click a file → opens in a new tab using a 5-minute signed URL.
  • Right-click a file → context menu: Open, Download, Copy link, Rename, Delete.

Rename and move

Rename is a small dialog. The S3 object key doesn't change (that's opaque and immutable) — only the display name updates.

Move isn't in the UI yet for individual files (besides drag-and-drop which is on the roadmap). For now, delete and re-upload, or use the REST API.

Copies a signed URL to your clipboard, valid for five minutes. Hand it to anyone — they can open the file once before the link expires. Use this for ad-hoc sharing without giving anyone Axerity access.

Delete

Permanently removes the file from storage and writes an audit log row. Confirms first.
