# The Nostr Media file manager The file manager is the web interface to everything Nostr Media stores for your Nostr public key. It is available to every Purple, Onyx and Gold subscriber. ## Signing in There is no password. On first visit the page asks your signer to sign a kind `24242` event carrying a `["t","manage"]` tag; that signature is what proves the files are yours. Any Nostr login method works — a NIP-07 browser extension, a NIP-46 remote signer, or a key held locally in the browser. The signed event is kept in browser storage so you are not re-prompted on every visit. Signing out clears it. ## What it does - **Browse** every file, thirty per page, with thumbnails for images and inline players for audio and video. - **Search** by filename or SHA-256 hash. - **Filter** by images, video, audio or other. - **Rename** a file. Names are sanitised to letters, digits, `-`, `_` and `.`; the stored blob and its URL are unaffected. - **Copy** a file's public URL. - **Delete** a file. Deletion removes the blob and purges the CDN cache. - **Zapwall** a file: tick the box, set a price in satoshis, and viewers must zap that amount to unlock it. All of the payment goes to you. - **Upload** by dragging files onto the page, including files up to 5 GB, which are sent through the presigned multipart flow. - **See your quota** — used storage against your tier's limit, shown as a progress bar. ## Notes - Files encrypted client-side arrive with no recognisable type and are stored as `.bin`; the manager shows them with a padlock rather than a preview. - Zapwalling a file changes its URL from `/p//...` to `/zapwall//...`. The manager copies the right URL for the file's current state. - Everything the manager does is available over HTTP as well — see the [API reference](https://nostrmedia.com/docs/api.md).
