Filestack vs OneDrive
Filestack is a file-upload and processing API that handles ingestion from local disk, cloud drives, and URLs, plus on-the-fly transformations like image resizing and document conversion. A live POST against the real gateway, www.filestackapi.com/api/store/S3, returned a 400 without a valid key, reconfirming API-key auth and HTTPS, and a follow-up OPTIONS preflight echoed the request Origin in Access-Control-Allow-Origin, resolving cors from unknown to yes. Filestack starts with a free plan for low-volume use and scales into paid Growth, Pro, and Enterprise tiers as upload and processing volume grows.
OneDrive's API, served through Microsoft Graph, lets applications read, write, and share files and folders in a user's personal or organizational OneDrive. A live GET against the real gateway, graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/me/drive, returned a 401 without a token, reconfirming OAuth 2.0 auth over HTTPS, and a follow-up OPTIONS preflight returned Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *, resolving cors from unknown to yes. Personal Microsoft accounts get 5GB free, with paid Microsoft 365 subscriptions raising the storage cap substantially.
