# How long does TTAPI store files? Where are they stored? Is persistence supported?

> Understand TTAPI's file storage mechanism, including storage locations, retention periods, persistence, and best practices for managing your content.

## Storage & Persistence

TTAPI provides temporary storage for generated content. Files' expiration times vary depending on the storage node where they are located.

### Expiration Time Table

| Storage Domain (Host)                                              | Expiration         | Description                                                      |

### Usage Recommendations

As the platform provides temporary relay storage, please keep the following in mind to ensure your business stability:

* **Timely Persistence**: We recommend downloading and uploading files to your own cloud storage (e.g., Aliyun OSS, AWS S3) as soon as you receive the results.
* **Avoid Direct Linking**: Do not use the platform's temporary file URLs as long-term access links in your production environment.
