# Chunked Uploads
OxiCloud supports TUS-like chunked uploads for large files. Uploads are parallel, resumable, and have MD5 integrity checks.
## How It Works
1. Client sends `POST /api/files/upload/init` with file metadata → receives an `upload_id`
2. Client splits the file into chunks and uploads them in parallel via `POST /api/files/upload/chunk`
3. Each chunk includes its index, MD5 hash, and the `upload_id`
4. When all chunks are uploaded, client calls `POST /api/files/upload/complete`
5. Server reassembles the file, verifies integrity, and runs deduplication
## API Endpoints
### Initialize Upload
```http
POST /api/files/upload/init
Content-Type: application/json
{
"file_name": "large-video.mp4",
"folder_id": "folder-uuid",
"total_size": 524288000,
"chunk_size": 8388608,
"total_chunks": 63
}
```
### Upload Chunk
```http
POST /api/files/upload/chunk
Content-Type: multipart/form-data
upload_id: "uuid"
chunk_index: 0
chunk_hash: "md5-hex"
file: <binary>
```
### Complete Upload
```http
POST /api/files/upload/complete
Content-Type: application/json
{
"upload_id": "uuid"
}
```
## Configuration
| Parameter | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Max parallel chunks | 8 | Concurrent chunk uploads |
| Min size for chunking | 200 MB | Below this, single-shot upload is used |
| Chunk size | 8 MB | Default chunk size |
## Frontend Behaviour
The OxiCloud web UI automatically selects chunked upload for large files. A progress bar shows overall completion and current chunk status.
