- In `v2`, files are tracked in the Langflow database, and can be added or deleted in bulk, instead of one by one.
- Responses from the `/v2` endpoint contain more descriptive metadata.
- The `v2` endpoints require authentication by an API key or JWT.
- The `/v2/files` endpoint does not support sending **image** files to flows through the API. To send **image** files to your flows through the API, follow the procedure in [Upload image files (v1)](#upload-image-files-v1).

### Send files to your flows (v2)
:::important
The `/v2/files` endpoint does not support sending **image** files to flows.
To send **image** files to your flows through the API, follow the procedure in [Upload image files (v1)](#upload-image-files-v1).
:::
Send a file to your flow for analysis using the [File](/components-data#file) component and the API.
Your flow must contain a [File](/components-data#file) component to receive the file.
The default file limit is 100 MB. To configure this value, change the `LANGFLOW_MAX_FILE_SIZE_UPLOAD` environment variable.
For more information, see [Supported environment variables](/environment-variables#supported-variables).
1. To send an image to your flow with the API, POST the image file to the `/api/v2/files` endpoint.
1. To send a file to your flow with the API, POST the file to the `/api/v2/files` endpoint.
Replace **FILE_NAME** with the uploaded file name.
This is the same step described in [Upload file (v2)](#upload-file-v2), but since you need the filename to upload to your flow, it is included here.
