Create Bundles

Upload many files in one go with one single Zip

A Bundle is an Archived folder in Zip format containing Multiple Files and File Types.

The benefit of creating a Bundle beside saving time, is that when uploaded to IPFS it is uploaded as a CAR file, making accessing of your files much more efficient and less costly.

Uploading CAR (Content Addressed Archive) files to IPFS offers efficient, deterministic, and scalable data handling by bundling multiple files with pre-computed CIDs into a single archive. This enables faster uploads, consistent content identifiers, offline generation, and bulk pinning—ideal for large datasets like NFT collections. CAR files also give developers fine-grained control over IPFS DAG structures and are widely supported by many other IPFS service providers.

Before Uploading

When creating a bundle you have to keep in mind some things:

  • If you have Folders inside Folders within your uploaded Zip archive, they will be flattened and all files inside them will be moved in one single Folder.

  • Avoid files with the same name if you have nested Folders, because they will be overwritten, resulting in one single file with that name.

  • Generally we can support any File Type although currently we are limiting it to the ones below for security reasons until we iron out all edge cases. If you want a specific new file type, please contact us to add it.

*contact us for expanding the list with new file types

*The whole process can take a couple of minutes to complete, depending by the size of the Zip archive, so please let it work in the background and refresh the page if needed. Once all the storing to IPFS process is finished (4 steps), your Bundle will appear in the table with all the details necessary.

  • Name/Slug of Bundle

  • Viewing the included files

  • Total amount of accepted files

  • Total size of files included

  • Date

You can also search individual files in the list by name.
