Dashboard
The PichaFlow Dashboard is your central command center for managing assets, API keys, and edge-native image processing pipelines.
Media Management
The Media tab allows you to upload, organize, and inspect your assets.
Uploading Assets
You can upload images directly via the web interface or using our SDK and API. Every uploaded asset is stored in Cloudflare R2 with zero egress fees for delivery.
AI Alt-Text
When an image is uploaded, PichaFlow automatically generates descriptive alt-text for SEO and accessibility. You can manually override these descriptions in the asset details view.
WASM Pipelines (Architect)
Pipelines are the core of PichaFlow's performance advantage. They allow you to define a sequence of image transformations that run at the Edge using WebAssembly.
Creating a Pipeline
Navigate to the Pipelines tab and click "Build New Pipeline".
- Define Steps: Add transformations like
resize,grayscale,blur, orbrightness. - Stacking: Operations are executed in the order you define them.
- Presets: Once saved, your pipeline is deployed to the global edge network as a "preset".
Using a Preset
To apply a pipeline to an image, simply append the preset parameter to its delivery URL:
https://cdn.pichaflow.com/asset-id.jpg?preset=hero-banner
API Keys & Security
Manage your access tokens in the API Keys tab.
- Public Keys: Used for client-side uploads (restricted by domain).
- Secret Keys: Used for server-side management and deletions. Never expose these in client-side code.
Custom Domains
Whitelabel your delivery network by connecting your own domain (e.g., images.yourbrand.com). PichaFlow handles SSL certificate generation and global routing automatically.
Usage & Billing
Track your bandwidth consumption, transformation counts, and storage usage in real-time.
- Bandwidth: Total data delivered via the PichaFlow CDN.
- Transformations: Number of unique image processing requests.
- Strikes: Account status and moderation warnings are visible in your profile settings if content violations occur.
