Upload

POST a multipart form. The response contains a permanent CDN link.

POSThttps://upload.zxcinc.dev/upload

Multipart form upload — the file goes in the file field. An X-API-Key header (or Authorization: Bearer zxc_...) ties the upload to your account so it appears in your console; without a key it's anonymous.

Serving

Every upload gets two URLs on the CDN.

GEThttps://cdn.zxcinc.dev/<key>

Viewer page — image viewer, video/audio player, or download card by content type. Custom slugs resolve here too: https://cdn.zxcinc.dev/my-file.

GEThttps://cdn.zxcinc.dev/raw/<key>

Raw bytes. Images and video serve inline, everything else downloads as attachment. Hotlinking is allowed and free.

API keys

Self-serve, unlimited, free.

Sign in at console.zxcinc.dev → API Keys → Create. The full key is shown once at creation. Uploads made with your key appear in your console, where you can rename their links or delete them.
