LESSON 14, Accessing IPFS imported files after importing

[Benrockiee]

After copying and pasting my CID from pinata and importing, it throws an error when i try to access that file..

This is the error on the UI

[Benrockiee]

This is my imported file

[RoboCrypter]

@Benrockiee : Yes,

• You can see it directly on your pinata uploads by clicking on the eye button on your ipfs hash!

• Or You have to open it in a gateway in your browser like brave etc

[Benrockiee]

But why cant i access it on the IPFS App itself? Just like it was done in the tutorial?

[RoboCrypter]

@Benrockiee : Yeah! It usually gives an error, It gave an error to me as well!

Then, I used a gateway on a browser and it was perfect!

[Benrockiee]

@abossofmyself Oh okay, thats helpful, thanks

[alymurtazamemon]

@Benrockiee try this: https://gateway.pinata.cloud/ipfs/YOUR-CID

@Benrockiee Which option did you select for import? Import from IPFS

[Benrockiee]

@alymurtazamemon I just did it exactly the way it was in the tutorial but someone just said it usually gives error sometimes..

[RoboCrypter]

@alymurtazamemon : He uploaded on pinata first and then copy the CID and host it on his own IPFS node! as the question says!

[alymurtazamemon]

@Benrockiee Just for your convenience I downloaded the ipfs node and here is the result:

@Benrockiee Make sure to give the same name as mentioned in pinata along with extension such as .png
