Files¶
The Files page is a simple file browser rooted at a Public folder on the gateway — useful for pulling logs or data files off the device, or dropping spreadsheets onto it for a local app to pick up.
A breadcrumb at the top (starting at Public) shows where you are and lets you navigate back up. The table lists each entry's Name, Type, Size, and Modified date, with per-row actions.
Downloading, renaming, and deleting¶
- Click a file's name (or the Download link) to download it.
- Click Rename and enter the new name.
- Click Delete to remove a file or folder.
Deleting a non-empty folder
Deleting a folder that contains items asks for confirmation first, telling you how many items are inside:
'{name}' contains {count} item(s). Delete everything inside it?
This deletes everything inside the folder, not just the folder itself — there's no separate per-item confirmation.
Creating a folder¶
- Under New folder name, type a name.
- Click Create folder.
Uploading a file¶
- Under Upload file, click Choose File and pick a file.
- Click Upload.
Only .csv, .xls, and .xlsx files are accepted — Cockpit rejects
anything else with an error.
