Blob Storage

Blob Storage in Qubitro allows devices to store binary data such as images, audio, logs, or other large objects.

Blob Storage in Qubitro allows devices to store binary data such as images, audio, logs, or other large objects.

It is a fully managed, highly available, and scalable storage solution designed to eliminate the need for third-party object storage.

Blob Storage is an Add-On and must be activated from the Organization Settings → Add-ons menu. It is available only on the Enterprise plan for Organizations.

Uploading Blob Data

Qubitro allows you to upload blob data programmatically using the Blob Upload API.

Uploading a File

To upload a file to Blob Storage, use the API with an Authorization Token and attach the binary file to be uploaded.

curl --location 'https://webhook.qubitro.com/integrations/http/blob' \
--header 'Authorization: Basic YOUR_DEVICE_TOKEN' \
--form 'file=@"/path/to/your/file.png"'

Parameters:

  • Authorization – Your Device Token, used for authentication.

  • file – The binary file you want to upload.

Deleting Blob Data

Qubitro allows you to delete Blob Storage data in bulk or individually through the UI.

Bulk Deletion

You can delete all stored blobs for a device from the Storage tab by selecting Delete all blob data from the options menu. This action removes all stored files associated with the device.

Deleting Individual Files

To delete a specific file, navigate to the Storage Tab and locate the file.

Select the delete option by clicking the three dots next to the file to permanently remove it.
