Read data available on the public IPFS network with w3link

[atinkapoor]

Hi,
I have media being pinned to web3.storage and can see them in my acocunt.

But i am not able to read them with w3link using an HTTP endpoint (at https://w3s.link) or https://old.web3.storage/products/w3link/

Like:

Thanks!

Hey @atinkapoor

Thanks for reaching out. Both actually are working for me, what kind of response to you get from w3link?

It seems to be working ok on my side as well, do you know why we have directory structure, instead of directly the file .... when we were pinning it, we just pinned the CID

[vasco-santos]

@atinkapoor files uploaded to web3.storage will be wrapped in an IPFS directory listing by default. This preserves the original filename and makes links more human-friendly than CID strings

You can read more about it in https://old.web3.storage/docs/how-tos/store/#directory-wrapping and also how to not to it if you do not want to.

Closing this issue, but feel free to reopen if there is further issues
