when you say upload images do you mean user images or public images?
if user images then they should be stored in storage/ and programmatically given access if user needs to see them..

Upload images with lumen and files permissions
Hi, I'm trying to build my own API for mobile application using Lumen and every thing is great till i came to upload images from the mobile app to my web server and save the URL in mysql database, because i'm new in the web servers world i have the following questions :
-
(most important) lets assume my project folder named TestProject and i want to save the images under Testproject/public/Images/user_id/img.png what permissions should i use to make only the web server write the folders and images and any body else can only read the images ?
-
Is it safe to save the images in the public folder or should i save them in the storage folder ?
Any explanation would be much appreciated

Its public Images not something private for the user
Level 23
permissions should be write read read (ie owner can write, group/others can read only)
