Is there a way to serve static (uploaded) files with free tier?

I started a Django app that serves the static files using whitenoise, everything good except that when uploading a photo (a profile photo or something alike) it works, the photo is shown but after a few minutes the image is gone, doesn’t load again until uploading a new one and the problem is back again after a few minutes. Don’t know if this also happens on paid tiers.

Hey José,

Please take a read of our documentation around Disks at https://render.com/docs/disks - this details the behaviour of the Render filesystem and what you can do to persist your uploads. It should also be mentioned that Disks can only be provisioned to a service using a paid plan,

Regards.
