Where to Find Uguu's API, FAQ, Status Page, and Source Code

Updated

Uguu's homepage footer links directly to all four resources: API, FAQ, Status, and Github. You'll find them at the bottom of uguu.se, alongside the upload area and donation options. The site is a temporary file host where files expire after 3 hours and the max upload size is 128 MiB, so these links are the fastest way to check service health, integrate uploads, or read the code.

Quick Reference

Resource What it's for Where to find it
API Programmatic uploads and integration Footer link labeled "Uguu API"
FAQ Answers about limits, expiry, and usage Footer link labeled "FAQ"
Status Current service availability Footer link labeled "Status"
Github Source code and issue tracking Footer link labeled "Github"

API

The API link in the footer takes you to Uguu's API documentation. This is the entry point if you want to upload files programmatically rather than through the browser interface. Typical use cases include:

  • Automating uploads from scripts or applications
  • Integrating Uguu into a workflow that needs temporary file links
  • Building a client that respects the 128 MiB limit and 3-hour expiry

Check the API page for the exact endpoint, request format, and any authentication details, since those specifics aren't covered on the homepage itself.

FAQ

The FAQ link answers common questions about how Uguu works. Based on the homepage, the key facts to expect there are:

  • Max upload size: 128 MiB
  • File expiry: 3 hours after upload
  • Cost: Free to use, funded by donations (Bitcoin, Ethereum, PayPal, Ko-Fi)
  • No account required: No sign-up, no ads, no tracking

If your question is about limits, retention, or acceptable use, the FAQ is the first place to check before looking elsewhere.

Status

The Status link shows whether Uguu is currently operational. Use it when:

  • An upload fails and you're not sure if it's your connection or the service
  • You're about to rely on Uguu for a time-sensitive share
  • You want to confirm an outage before troubleshooting further

Since files expire in 3 hours, a service interruption can matter more than on a permanent host — checking Status first saves time.

Github

The Github link leads to Uguu's source code repository. This is useful if you want to:

  • Review how the service handles uploads and expiry
  • Report a bug or request a feature
  • Self-host or adapt the code for your own use

The repository is also where you'd look for technical details that aren't documented on the API or FAQ pages.

Practical Notes

  • All four links sit in the footer of the homepage, so you don't need to navigate a menu to reach them.
  • Uguu is free and donation-funded, with no account required — this applies to the service as described on the homepage.
  • Because files expire after 3 hours, don't use Uguu for anything you need to keep long-term; the API and FAQ pages will confirm this behavior if you need it in writing.
