Manage stored files in the Firebase console

This can be helpful for visualizing the structure of your bucket to verify that your application is working or if you need a convenient way to store just a few files like static images or video content for your application. From this page of the Firebase console, you can view detailed file information, upload and download files, create folders, and create new download URLs for files.
