How to store images for mobile development

I decided to use back4app for easily creating my backend and for having a built in hosting solution.

I'm quite a newbie with this tool so my question will seem "simple":

I was wondering how will I store the images of my mobile application. As far as I know they use AWS so I thought the service would provide like an interface to upload some images to a S3 bucket...

Should I create a personal bucket or does the service offer that kind of feature ?

The idea is to store then the absolute url of the image in my model. For example each Class has a cover field of type string.

you're right, Back4App use AWS. Back4App prepared the Backend for you, for example, if you try to save a file direct at your Parse Dashboard, you will can access the image and you already have a absolute URL.You can configure the column with a type File, like below:

Add a column with the File type

After upload a file, you will can access click at the box :)

After that upload the file
