See the upgrade guide for config changes and the data migration.Breaking
  • Requires Payload CMS 3.83.0+ and Node.js 22+.

New features
  • Per-collection storage zones and stream libraries.
  • Browser-direct client uploads (presigned S3 or a Bunny Edge Script).

  • Dynamic per-document storage prefix.
  • Setup wizard and edge-script deploy CLI.

If this plugin saves you time, star it on GitHub or support the project. Thank you!
July 12, 2026
The final v2.x release before v3.0.0.New features
  • stream.tus.checkAccess now receives the parsed auth body (collection, filename, filetype, filesize) as a second argument, so you can gate uploads before the video is created.
  • Dynamic upload prefix: the storage prefix can be set per document via data.prefix from a collection hook (for example, per-tenant folders).
Bug fixes
  • Fixed applyUrlTransform throwing on relative (access-controlled) URLs; existing query parameters are now preserved.
  • Request query parameters are preserved when proxying storage files through Payload (for example, Bunny Image Optimizer params under access control).
  • Fixed post-upload “saved” detection that compared the update event by object identity instead of updatedAt.
  • The plugin now fails fast with a clear error when a configured collection has no upload config.
October 5, 2025
Bug fixes
  • Fixed user collection hooks (beforeChange, afterRead, afterDelete, …) being lost when the plugin initialized.
  • Fixed collection-level thumbnail: false not being honored.
Other
  • Added Tamil (ta) translations.
  • Updated development dependencies to Payload 3.57.
September 29, 2025
New features
  • Stream-only support: the plugin can run with only Bunny Stream, without a Bunny Storage config.
  • Renamed adminThumbnail to thumbnail for clarity (old key still accepted with a deprecation warning, removed in v2.2.0).
Bug fixes
  • Fixed thumbnailTime: 0 being treated as invalid.

August 15, 2025
New features - Added experimental.replaceSaveButtonComponent as a temporary workaround for a Payload issue causing unnecessary file re-downloads during field updates.
July 16, 2025
