Media\u00a0is\u00a0an important part of Product information be it images or PDFs etc.
\nAkeneo saves uploaded files and other temporary\u00a0files in the predefined location like \/tmp\u00a0directory.<\/p>\n

Change file storage directory in Akeneo<\/strong><\/span>
\nA user can change the file storage location by changing the following parameters in the project configuration.
\ngoto \/app\/config\/parameters.yml file.
\nAdd following parameters in file to change upload and temp file storage directory.<\/p>\n

parameters:\r\n    catalog_storage_dir:'\/path\/to\/pim\/pim-community-standard\/tmp\/pim\/catalog_storage'  # for main product file storage\r\n    tmp_storage_dir: '\/path\/to\/pim\/pim-community-standard\/tmp\/pim\/file_storage' # for temporary storage for import profiles\r\n    upload_tmp_dir: '\/path\/to\/pim\/pim-community-standard\/tmp\/pim\/upload_tmp_dir' # for uploaded files\r\n    asset_storage_dir: '\/path\/to\/pim\/pim-community-standard\/tmp\/pim\/file_storage\/asset' # only for enterprize_edition pam\r\n<\/pre>\n

\nBetter Alternative:<\/strong><\/span>
\nI do not recommend\u00a0keeping files on the same server as the application.
\nbecause Increasing file storage on the server requires monitoring. it can halt\u00a0your application and services.
\nso better alternative would be to use some file storage CDN\u00a0like amazon s3 for saving files. it is better both for usability and security.<\/p>\n
In case of Akeneo user can plugins like\u00a0https:\/\/store.webkul.com\/akeneo-amazon-s3-integration.html<\/a>
\nProduct images\/files as well data from PAM (product asset management) could be stored on CDNs like Amazon\u00a0s3.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
