Assets - Content

Upload, download, delete, replace, and manage asset files. Each uploaded file creates a new asset with a unique 32-character alphanumeric UUID.

Key concepts:

Deleting an original is a soft-delete (asset is hidden, can be restored)
Purging permanently removes the asset and all conversions
Public access can be set per-file or per-conversion
