What problem does it solve? Netlify applications often need to persist files like user uploads, exported documents, generated images, and cached binary artifacts without provisioning external storage infrastructure. This Skill guides you through using Netlify Blobs, the zero-config object storage available from any Netlify compute context, so you avoid misusing it for queryable application data or misconfiguring store scoping and access control. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Store Management: Create site-scoped stores with getStore() for persistent data or deploy-scoped stores with getDeployStore() for per-deploy artifacts, with optional strong consistency for read-after-write scenarios. - Full CRUD and Listing: Set strings, buffers, and JSON with metadata; read data as text, JSON, streams, blobs, or array buffers; delete keys; and list blobs with prefix filtering. - Access and Scoping Guidance: Decide between public and private serving patterns, since Blobs have no built-in access control and the serving layer acts as the gate. - Use Case: A user uploads profile images through your Netlify function. You store each image in a site-scoped store under an uploads/ prefix with content-type metadata, then serve it back through an authenticated endpoint that streams the blob. ## Quick Start Ask the AI to add Netlify Blobs storage to your Netlify function so users can upload and retrieve image files through an authenticated endpoint.
