Hello,
Having 'add’ed a file (an image of type jpg) using the add command, I’m struggling to find the command to get the meta data about it (name, IPFS location, etc).
When I perform either a GET or a CAT I just get the text version of the file back.
Ideally, having listed my files I’d like to get some data in them.
I’m using and API client (POSTMAN) to send the requests.
Can anyone please advise?
