Obtain credentials before upload

API endpoint to send HTTP PUT request to receive upload credentials is https://dev.vdocipher.com/api/videos. To initiate video upload you would need to pass the title of video as a query string: https://dev.vdocipher.com/api/videos?title=videotitle where videotitle is the title of the video.

This returns a JSON object, which authorizes you to initiate upload. You may upload the file yourself, or can pass the upload credentials to your content providers who can then upload videos to your account. The JSON object looks like this:

The values received in upload policy are presented in the following format - {{policy}}

{    "clientPayload": {        "policy": "{{format}}",        "key": "{{key}}",        "x-amz-signature": "{{x-amz-signature}}",        "x-amz-algorithm": "{{x-amz-algorithm}}",        "x-amz-date": "{{x-amz-date}}",        "x-amz-credential": "{{x-amz-credential}}",        "uploadLink": "https://{s3-bucket-url}}.amazonaws.com"    },    "videoId": "1234567890"}
