File Repository
The File Repository is a centralized system for managing and distributing digital files in the Developer Portal. It works as a single repository where you can upload, store, manage, and reuse files (such as Collections, SDKs, documentation, and resources) across different content.
The system provides granular permission control, storage limits, and file usage tracking across the platform.
