# Vercel Private Blob is now generally available

By Steven Van · 2026-06-30

Private Blob storage, Signed URLs, and OIDC authentication leave beta and are now available to all Vercel plans.

[Vercel](<https://creatorstoolbox.com/tools/vercel>) Private Blob is [generally available](<https://vercel.com/docs/vercel-blob/private-storage>) on all plans. Private stores, Signed URLs, and OIDC authentication all graduate from beta with this release, giving developers a way to store sensitive files, such as user-uploaded photos, invoices, and agent memory, while controlling exactly who can read them.

- Private stores require authentication for every read and write, and use the same Blob API as public storage: specify **access: 'private'** when uploading with put().

- Functions running on Vercel now authenticate to private stores with a short-lived, auto-rotating OIDC token scoped to the project, so no static read-write token needs to sit in the environment. The Vercel CLI also supports OIDC, for reading and writing from a terminal without a long-lived token. Stores still on a static token can upgrade to OIDC and revoke the old credential from the dashboard.

- Signed URLs scope access to a single operation (PUT, GET, HEAD, or DELETE), a single pathname, and an expiration of up to seven days, so a client can be handed temporary access to a private object without ever seeing the store's credentials.
