It is useful for scenarios where you need to list or manage files uploaded to a project, such as images, documents, or other assets. For example, a user might use this node to fetch all uploads for a project to display them in a custom dashboard or to automate backup processes.

Use Case Examples

  1. Fetch all uploads for a project with ID 123 to display in a project management tool.
  2. Automate retrieval of project uploads to sync with an external storage system.
