generateFileUploadUrl( )

Generates an upload URL to allow external clients to upload a file to the Media Manager.

The generateFileUploadUrl() function returns a Promise that resolves to an upload URL.

To learn how external clients can use the generated upload URL in the response to upload a file to the Media Manager, see the Upload API article.

Notes:

  • When you upload a file, it's not immediately available, meaning you can't manage or use the file straight away. Learn more about knowing when a file is ready.
  • Any interruption in the upload process stops the file upload. For files larger than 10MB, or when network connection is poor, use generateFileResumableUploadUrl() instead. With the resumable upload URL, any interruption in the upload process pauses the file upload, and resumes the file upload process after the interruption.
