Veltiti gateway

Nirvana plan users get a private IPFS gateway at a unique subdomain. This gateway only serves files pinned to your account — it won't resolve CIDs from other users or the public IPFS network.

Din gateway-URL

Your gateway URL is shown in your Gateway page and returned by the /user/profile endpoint:

https://<your-slug>.gw.ipfs.ninja/ipfs/<CID>

Atkomstlage

Mode	Behavior
Open (default)	Anyone with your gateway URL + CID can access your files. No token needed.
Token required	Requests must include a gateway token via ?token=gwt_... query param or X-Gateway-Token header.

Granser

• 50 GB/month gateway bandwidth included with Nirvana
• When the bandwidth limit is reached, gateway requests return 429 until the next month
• Storage usage resets on the first of each calendar month
• Only serves CIDs pinned to your account — requests for other CIDs return 403

Apex vārteja

Koplietotā apex vārteja https://ipfs.ninja/ipfs/<CID> ir pieejama visos plānos un nepieprasa autentifikāciju, taču apkalpo tikai CID, kurus ir augšupielādējis vai piesprausti IPFS Ninja lietotājs. Pieprasījumi citiem CID atgriež HTTP 410 Gone.

CID, kas tev nepieder, vari (a) izpildīt POST /pin, lai piespraustu to savam kontam, un pēc tam izmantot apex URL, vai (b) izmantot trešās puses vārteju, piemēram, https://ipfs.io/ipfs/<CID> vai https://dweb.link/ipfs/<CID>.

Ražošanas līmeņa iegulšanai (video, NFT skatītāji, vietnes) iepriekš minētā dedicētā vārteja ir ieteicamais modelis — tā piedāvā augstākus ātruma ierobežojumus, konfigurējamas piekļuves kontroles un dedicētu joslas platumu.

Update Settings

PUT /gateway-settings

Parameter	Type	Required	Description
tokenRequired	boolean	No	Enable/disable gateway token requirement.
ipWhitelist	string[]	No	Array of IP addresses to allow. Max 100. Empty array removes the whitelist.
allowedOrigins	string[]	No	Array of allowed origins for browser requests. Max 100. Must use HTTPS format (e.g. https://myapp.com). Empty array allows all origins.

Exempel

# Enable token-required mode
curl -X PUT https://api.ipfs.ninja/gateway-settings \
  -H "X-Api-Key: bws_your_api_key_here" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"tokenRequired": true}'

# Set IP whitelist
curl -X PUT https://api.ipfs.ninja/gateway-settings \
  -H "X-Api-Key: bws_your_api_key_here" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"ipWhitelist": ["203.0.113.1", "198.51.100.0"]}'

# Clear IP whitelist (allow all IPs)
curl -X PUT https://api.ipfs.ninja/gateway-settings \
  -H "X-Api-Key: bws_your_api_key_here" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"ipWhitelist": []}'

# Restrict to specific origins
curl -X PUT https://api.ipfs.ninja/gateway-settings \
  -H "X-Api-Key: bws_your_api_key_here" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"allowedOrigins": ["https://myapp.com", "https://staging.myapp.com"]}'

# Remove origin restrictions (allow all origins)
curl -X PUT https://api.ipfs.ninja/gateway-settings \
  -H "X-Api-Key: bws_your_api_key_here" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"allowedOrigins": []}'

Origin Restrictions

When allowedOrigins is configured, only browser requests from the listed origins are allowed. The gateway checks the Origin and Referer headers on incoming requests.

• If the list is empty (default), all origins are allowed.
• If origins are specified, requests with an Origin or Referer header that does not match any entry are rejected with a 403 response.
• Non-browser requests that do not include an Origin header (such as server-side fetches or curl) pass through without restriction.

This is useful for embedding gateway content in your web application while preventing other sites from hotlinking your files.

Gateway-token

Gateway tokens (gwt_ prefix) are read-only and safe to embed in frontend applications. Unlike API keys, a gateway token can only access files through your dedicated gateway — it cannot upload, delete, or manage your account.

Capability	API Key (bws_)	Gateway Token (gwt_)
Upload / delete files	✅ Yes	❌ No
List / get file metadata	✅ Yes	❌ No
Read files via gateway	❌ No	✅ Yes
Safe to embed in frontend	❌ No	✅ Yes

Create Gateway Token

POST /gateway-tokens

Parameter	Type	Required	Description
name	string	No	Label for the token (e.g. "Frontend"). Defaults to "Default".

Response 201 Created

{
  "token": "gwt_a1b2c3d4e5f6789012345678abcdef01",
  "tokenPrefix": "gwt_a1b2c3d4",
  "tokenName": "Frontend",
  "createdAt": 1711036800000
}

WARNING

The full token is only returned once at creation. Store it securely.

List Gateway Tokens

GET /gateway-tokens

[
  {
    "tokenPrefix": "gwt_a1b2c3d4",
    "tokenName": "Frontend",
    "createdAt": 1711036800000
  }
]

Delete Gateway Token

DELETE /gateway-tokens/:prefix

Parameter	Type	Required	Description
prefix	string	Yes	The token prefix to delete (e.g. "gwt_a1b2c3d4").

Using a gateway token

When your gateway has token-required mode enabled, pass the token as a query parameter or header:

# Query parameter
curl "https://a1b2c3d4.gw.ipfs.ninja/ipfs/QmXk7VRz...?token=gwt_your_token"

# Or header
curl https://a1b2c3d4.gw.ipfs.ninja/ipfs/QmXk7VRz... \
  -H "X-Gateway-Token: gwt_your_token"
