Implementation Details

Source: server/endpoints/api/userProxy.js All endpoints proxy to Directus using admin token for elevated permissions:
  • Bypasses user-level file upload restrictions
  • Allows profile updates without exposing Directus admin UI
  • Maintains audit trail through Directus revision system
File uploads consume server disk space. Implement cleanup policies for abandoned uploads and enforce tier-based quotas.
