# Local storage

Uploaded files will be saved in a local directory on the server. This is suitable for small-scale or experimental scenarios where the total number of files managed by the system is relatively small.

### Path

The path represents both the relative path of the file stored on the server and the URL access path. For example, "`user/avatar`" (without the leading and trailing "`/`") represents:

1. The relative path of the uploaded file stored on the server: `/path/to/nocobase-app/storage/uploads/user/avatar`.
2. The URL prefix for accessing the file: `http://localhost:13000/storage/uploads/user/avatar`.
