# How to upload Base64 data in client side Bubble plugin?

Converting various file types, such as images and PDFs, into base64 strings is an excellent method for storing them in a database. Bubble's File API only permits base64 data uploads, disallowing direct uploads of PDFs and images.

Use the following code to upload Base64 data to Bubble File Manager.

```javascript
context.uploadContent(properties.file_name,base64_data, function(err, url){
                     
                        console.log("URL", "https:"+url);
                        
                    });
```
