Hi! yeah, you should use https://uploadstuff.dev/
you can read more in our docs here if uploadstuff doesn't work for you: https://docs.convex.dev/file-storage/upload-files , but uploadstuff is the easiest way to solve this quickly

Thanks for reporting the other issue with
onUploadComplete, will fix!This works! thank you! still cannot get the image from db.. Is the ID in my db even the ID for image or for storage? how it works
Trying to get things in my head with convex docs but its not the same as in my project
You want to pass the storage ID (type
Id<"_storage">) to getUrl, like this:
await ctx.storage.getUrl(storageId)
You can do this in a query/mutation or action. It will give you a URL you can pass to an img tag.Done. Thank you very much !!!!!
