Creating URL assets

There is two types of assets. Files that are uploaded and URLs. We will cover URL assets here, for uploading files view this page.

Creating URL assets

URL assets require three (3) fields. To create a URL asset send a POST request to

Request

{
    "filename": "My new book",
    "size": "10MB",
    "url": "https://www.my-website.com/download/my-book.pdf"
}

Response

{
    "data": {
        "id": "82664d96-6dfd-4343-96b0-05c46f412a5b",
        "filename": "My new book",
        "size": "10MB",
        "is_file": false,
        "is_link": true,
        "url": "https://www.my-website.com/download/my-book.pdf"
