In this article, you will learn what types of files you can upload to your project.
If you have purchased a package of premium services Mini, Standard, Profi or Business on the project, you can upload almost all types of files.
Uploading .exe etc. files is not allowed due to the frequent misuse of these formats for the spread of viruses, Trojan horses, spyware, and other malicious programs.
For security reasons, only certain file types can be uploaded in the free version.
The maximum size of the uploaded file in the free version is 8 MB. With the premium Mini, Standard, Profi or Business package, a file with a maximum size of up to 400 MB can be uploaded to the site. We recommend that you use some external storage to upload larger files due to the increased limit of transferred data when downloading them frequently. For example, you can use Google Drive.
