# Bulk upload via SFTP

With the via SFTP you are able to upload all [file formats that NMKR Studio supports](https://docs.nmkr.io/nmkr-studio/token/upload#file-formats),\
but with the advantage that you are now able to upload the files in bulk by drag and drop, as well as that bigger file sizes are supported

{% hint style="info" %}
Please use the [SFTP Bulk Upload](https://docs.nmkr.io/nmkr-studio/token/upload/bulk-upload-via-sftp) for files till 250mb file size. \
\
For Files greater than 250mb we recommend an external upload directly to [IPFS](https://docs.nmkr.io/introduction/what-is-ipfs) through an upload-and-pinning-service like [piniata.cloud](https://www.pinata.cloud/) and [add the IPFS hash of these files directly to your metadata](https://docs.nmkr.io/nmkr-studio/token/edit#add-externally-uploaded-files-via-ipfs-hash). \
\
The maximum storage size on our servers that is provided to a user is currently not limited.
{% endhint %}

### Set up SFTP access

Download and install an SFTP-Client like [Cyberduck ](https://cyberduck.io/)or [FileZilla](https://filezilla-project.org/). Both clients are working very good, but in some rare cases it seems that FilaZilla is more reliable.

Go to the [Manage NFT Tab](https://docs.nmkr.io/nmkr-studio/token/manage-tokens-tab) of your project and select  "Bulk upload NFTs".

This opens a new tab, where you now want to expand the Server information.

Enter the log-in details into your SFTP client and connect to the server.

You will now find a folder named by your customer ID that contains all your projects.

You can now continue to [upload your files to the projects](https://docs.nmkr.io/nmkr-studio/token/upload/bulk-upload-via-sftp/bulk-upload-files-and-metadata) by simply dragging them from your local device into the correct project folder.
