File Upload

A profile picture or a PDF invoice has to get from a browser's file picker into your storage somehow. This module is that path, plus the validation gaps that turn an upload endpoint into a security hole.

Learning objectives

  • Beginner: Accept a file upload via MultipartFile and save it to disk.
  • Intermediate: Validate a file upload's size and content type before trusting it.
  • Advanced: Explain why storing uploads directly on the application server's disk doesn't survive a real production deployment, and what replaces it.
