S3 integration

To access the storage bucket from the client, create a reference to a StorageClient using the storage() method, passing your storage integration ID:

Client code
const topic = squid.storage('YOUR_STORAGE_INTEGRATION_ID');

With this storage instance, you can upload files, read metadata, generate download URLs, and download content. To learn more about managing files from the client, view the Squid storage documentation.
