IPFS endpoints and upload options for this browser

Back to app

Endpoints

These two URLs tell BunnyDrive where to upload and where to fetch files. Most users can leave the defaults.

Recommended defaults (BunnyBoard public node)

  • API URL: https://ipfs-gateway.bunnyboard.xyz (no path; the app calls /api/v0/add for upload)
  • Gateway URL: https://ipfs-gateway.bunnyboard.xyz/ipfs (must end with /ipfs; the app appends the CID for download and image preview)

You do not need your own IPFS node if these defaults work. Change them only if you run a private Kubo node or another pinning service.

Upload / pin endpoint (Kubo HTTP API base). Use the host only, without /api/v0.

Read / download endpoint. Public gateways also work, e.g. https://dweb.link/ipfs or https://ipfs.io/ipfs.

Using your own local Kubo instead

  • API: http://127.0.0.1:5001
  • Gateway: http://127.0.0.1:8081/ipfs (or your local gateway port + /ipfs)
  • Local API must allow browser CORS, or uploads from this site will fail with network / 403 errors.

CID version

Chooses only the string format returned when you upload new files: CIDv1 (modern baf...) or CIDv0 (classic Qm...).

How this switch works

  • Applies only to the next uploads after you save settings.
  • Does not change files already in your Library, or CIDs already on IPFS.
  • Does not affect preview or opening a CID. Both versions always work for those.
  • Same file bytes are the same content either way; this is only which encoding the upload API returns.
