File Browser

27 min

Overview

Your files on Floyo are organized in a cloud-based file system that persists across sessions. Use the File Browser (My Files) to upload, organize, and manage all your workflow assets.

Opening the File Browser

Click the folder icon in the left sidebar (middle icon) to open the File Browser panel.

Folder Structure

Your workspace contains six main folders:

Folder	Purpose	Notes
inputs	Images, videos, and other files you upload for use in workflows	Files uploaded via nodes also appear here
outputs	Generated results from your workflow runs	Organized by run
models	Your uploaded LoRA models	Personal models only
temp	Temporary files created during workflow execution	Auto-cleared periodically
community_inputs	Shared input files from community workflows	Read-only
community_models	Shared models from the Floyo library	Read-only

Uploading Files

Method 1: File Browser Upload

Open the File Browser

Navigate to the destination folder (typically inputs)

Click the upload icon (↑) in the toolbar

Select files from your computer

Method 2: Node Upload

Many nodes have a "choose file to upload" option that opens your system file picker. Files uploaded this way are automatically saved to your inputs folder.

Supported file types:

Images: PNG, JPG, JPEG, WEBP, GIF

Video: MP4, MOV, WEBM

Models: SafeTensors (LoRAs only for personal uploads)

Other: JSON, TXT (for captions/metadata)

Managing Files

Navigating Folders

Click a folder to open it

Use the breadcrumb path at the top to navigate back (e.g., "My Files / inputs")

Click the back arrow (←) to return to the parent folder

File Information

Each file displays:

View Options

Toggle between grid view and list view using the toolbar icons.

Icon	Action
↑	Upload files
↓	Download selected files
📁+	Create new folder
≡ / ⊞	Toggle list/grid view
↻	Refresh file list

Hover over any file or folder to reveal the three-dot menu (⋮) in the top-right corner of the tile. Click it to access file actions.

Standard Options (All Folders)

Option	Description
Rename	Change the file or folder name
Download	Download the file to your computer
Delete	Permanently remove the file or folder
Copy To	Copy the file to another folder
Move To	Move the file to another folder
Copy path	Copy the full file path to clipboard

Additional Option (Non-Input Folders Only)

Option	Description
Copy path as input	Copies the file path formatted for use in workflow nodes. Use this to reference output files as inputs in subsequent workflows.

💡 Tip: "Copy path as input" appears in outputs, models, temp, and other folders—but not in inputs (since those files are already accessible as inputs).

Using Copy Path vs Copy Path as Input

Copy path — Copies the file path in standard format:

#inputs/image.png

Copy path as input — Copies the path with the (as-input) prefix so workflow nodes recognize it as an input:

(as-input)#outputs/AceFaceSwap/result.png

Paste copied paths directly into node input fields that accept file paths.

Subfolders help you organize inputs by project or category.

File Persistence & Auto-Cleanup

Free Plan Users

Files in outputs and temp are automatically deleted after 72 hours to manage storage.

To preserve important outputs:

Download files to your computer before they expire

Upgrade to a paid plan for persistent storage

Paid Plan Users

Files persist indefinitely until manually deleted or storage limit is reached.

Tips & Best Practices

Organize inputs by project - Create subfolders in inputs to keep assets organized

Download important outputs immediately - Especially on free plans

Monitor storage usage - Check the indicator at the bottom of File Browser

Use descriptive filenames - Makes it easier to find files in node dropdowns

Clear unused files regularly - Delete old inputs and outputs to free up space

Troubleshooting

Files not appearing after upload

Click the refresh button (↻) in the toolbar

Check you're in the correct folder

Verify the file type is supported

Upload fails

Check your remaining storage space

Ensure file size doesn't exceed limits

Try a different browser or clear cache

Can't delete files

Ensure you have permission (community files are read-only)

Check if file is currently in use by a running workflow
