# Guides

## Bucket App

Upload, browse, and manage all your files through the app interface. All files uploaded are published to IPFS and Arweave.

To get started, go ahead and [log in](https://dashboard.4everland.org/login) to your 4EVERLAND account, where you will see your account dashboard.

**If you need to sync this Bucket file to an AR, turn on the ‘Sync to AR’ button.**
{% endhint %}

By clicking on the upload button, you can choose to upload in the following ways: Select a File, Folder, or CID (Content Identifier).

{% hint style="info" %}

* **File**: 4EVERLAND allows you to upload any type of file including image files, video files, music files, text files, apps—anything you can imagine.
* **Folder**: You can upload an entire folder of content that you want to store and manage, including a collection of marketplace assets like videos, images or app files.
* **CID:** A content Identifier (also referred to as a CID) is a unique string of letters and numbers which represents a piece of data, and in the case of NFTs, proves that the NFT is really yours. A CID cannot be changed once in the IPFS network without changing the content attached to the CID as well.&#x20;
