where does railway.app store user uploaded media files
I have a django app deployed in railway. The user will upload some files like pdf or any other documents like word or images and i need to store them. So where can I view the files the user has uploaded.

file viewing would have to be built into your app, railway doesn't offer any SSH or SFTP access
So what you are saying is that we cant view the uploaded files in railway. For example if I upload some media to cloudinary I can view the uploaded images. But the same functionality is not available in railway is that what you mean ?
Are you perhaps trying to figure out how to move the uploaded files to a more permanent location (which you can then access) or are you actually looking for a way to download/view them directly from Railway?
that is correct
Yes @fad I'm trying to do that. I'm looking for a way to permanently store the images. I also want to know whether we can view the uploaded files directly from railway itself
1. store the images in the volume
2. file viewing would have to be built into your app, railway doesn't offer its own file browser or any SSH or SFTP access
