I am using the Imgur API to upload images to albums, as part of a Reddit bot. However, when I try to upload MP4 files I get an error: "File type invalid (1)". Uploading the exact same MP4 file using the website works just fine.
I am using this endpoint to upload the file: POST https://api.imgur.com/3/image
https://apidocs.imgur.com/#c85c9dfc-7487-4de2-9ecd-66f727cf3139
The above comment is no longer correct -- You can indeed upload an MP4 using Imgur API
import requests
url = "https://api.imgur.com/3/upload"
payload = {'album': 'ALBUMID',
'type': 'file',
'disable_audio': '0'}
files = [
('video', open('/path/to/Video.mp4','rb'))
]
headers = {
'Authorization': 'Bearer BEARERTOKENHERE'
}
response = requests.request("POST", url, headers=headers, data = payload, files = files)
print(response.text.encode('utf8'))
The above works for me and uploads successfully. Something to note though, I have not figured out how to make the upload tied to my account, or within a specific album. It seems to be ignoring the album_id field. In other words, despite using the Bearer token, it appears to be navigating the API "anonymously".
From the imgur Help site, located here and last updated 2 months ago:
https://help.imgur.com/hc/en-us/articles/115000083326-What-files-can-I-upload-What-is-the-size-limit-
File Types
If you need help learning how to upload on Imgur, check out this help
article. You can upload any of the following files: JPEG, PNG, GIF, APNG, TIFF, MOV (desktop website only), MP4 (desktop website
only)
Imgur doesn't currently support uploads in the following
formats: WEBM GIFV
Explicitly, MP4s are only currently supported as uploaded manually via the website directly.
Unfortunately, that means imgur does not support MP4 types through any method other than the Desktop site at this current time.
I agree with a comment above. Now it is works great. Even you can upload the video without authorization. Just using a POST method https://api.imgur.com/3/upload. Pass a video file in body with image key. That's all.
Example in Postman

I am doing a project using WhatsApp cloud API. I need to create a template with a media header. I have created a template with a media header without a sample image and it gets rejected. So I want to create a template with a sample image in Node JS.
Template with a media header
Add sample image for a template
curl -X POST "https://graph.facebook.com/v14.0/{whatsapp-business-account-ID}/message_templates
?name={template-name}
&language=en_US
&category=TRANSACTIONAL,
&components=[{
type:BODY,
text:{message-text}
},
{
type:HEADER,
format:IMAGE,
example:{header_handle:[{uploaded-image-file-url}]}
}],
&access_token={system-user-access-token}"
I want to add a sample image using Node JS (Not manually like the second picture).
header_handle requires a encrypted file upload provided by facebook.
This can be done by calling 2 apis.
First,
We have to create a session for the file to be uploaded.
For creating session refer this
After creating session, we will get session id to upload the original file to it.Response will look something like this:
{"id":"upload:MTphdHRhY2htZW50Ojlk2mJiZxUwLWV6MDUtNDIwMy05yTA3LWQ4ZDPmZGFkNTM0NT8=?sig=ARZqkGCA_uQMxC8nHKI"}
Second,We have to upload the file to
https://graph.facebook.com/v14.0/{above_id}
This will give a response something similar to
{"h":"2:c2FtcGxlLm1wNA==:image/jpeg:GKAj0gAUCZmJ1voFADip2iIAAAAAbugbAAAA:e:1472075513:ARZ_3ybzrQqEaluMUdI"}
Finally,
{header_handle:["2:c2FtcGxlLm1wNA==:image/jpeg:GKAj0gAUCZmJ1voFADip2iIAAAAAbugbAAAA:e:1472075513:ARZ_3ybzrQqEaluMUdI"]}
Should be added during the request to create template.
It worked for me.
See this for better understanding on how to do it.
The answer Provided by Aravindh is correct, you can follow This document from Meta to upload the Image you want.
Just make sure you use a supported type by WhatsApp API ( For WhatsApp Business Platform Cloud API , For WhatsApp Business Platform On-Premises API ) and the upload end point (file-type — The file's MIME type. Valid values are: image/jpeg, image/jpg, image/png, and video/mp4
)
Double Check if you are following exacly the types supported, for example in case of png, you need to set "file_type" to "image/png" no just "png" when creating the upload session.
I have tested it and it works for me.
Hope this helps
Basically all I want to know is, I am working on Youtube API to upload videos on my channel. Whenever I try to upload video from my local file, it works without any issue. But if I want to upload some videos which are already hosted on S3, it gives me error related to OS i.e. OSError: File not found at that location.
So is there any way to upload video using youtube API from already hosted URLs ?
P.S. I am following the documentation of youtube API and using MediaFileUpload to upload the video files.
Edit 1: I tried a minor hack around this particular issue and works fine for me. Just leaving it here for future developers.
import requests
from six import BytesIO
url = "" # The video url you want to upload (I use S3 urls, not sure if it will work with youtube urls)
res = requests.get(url)
file = BytesIO(res.content)
media = MediaIoBaseUpload(file, mimetype="application/octet-stream")
I'm trying to add an image that I've uploaded to Drive via the Drive API into a slide show I've created using the same API.
when Running the fairly standard:
response = (self
._slides_service
.presentations()
.batchUpdate(presentationId=slide_deck_id, body=body)
.execute()
)
I get:
googleapiclient.errors.HttpError: <HttpError 400 when requesting {url} returned "Invalid requests[0].createImage: The provided image is in an unsupported format.">
I'm generating the service in the same way as suggested in the documentation here: https://developers.google.com/slides/quickstart/python
My scope is:
https://www.googleapis.com/auth/presentations
If I run the command with a random png from the internet then it inserts the image fine. I've tried the url provided by webContentLink or WebViewLink values from the response from uploading the images. Neither are valid.
What URL will work to do this?
I'm aware there are other similar questions on stack overflow but all of them are not related to doing this in python or if they are, there solutions don't work.
EDIT:
body is:
{'requests': [{'createImage': {'url': url, 'elementProperties': {'pageObjectId': page_id}}}]}
had to generalise the url and page id because GDPR is a pain.
I created an API in API Gateway to upload audio files to s3, the file is sending from local PC as multipart/form-data.
API integration request is shown below
In URL Path Parameters, added bucket as param and directly added the bucket name
When I try to upload the file I get an error response,
body: '<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>\n<Error><Code>InvalidArgument</Code><Message>x-amz-content-sha256 must be UNSIGNED-PAYLOAD, STREAMING-AWS4-HMAC-SHA256-PAYLOAD, or a valid sha256 value.</Message><ArgumentName>x-amz-content-sha256</ArgumentName><ArgumentValue>null</ArgumentValue><RequestId>123445667788</RequestId><HostId>abcd/Jefgh2272vb/ghvsvds+gh+6273gdhsg+gdgshdshdsjdsj=</HostId></Error>'
What are the changes need to be done?
After some research, I found some very useful document
please go through this if you also face the same probem!!
added multipart/form-data to binary support in api.
I'm trying to upload a jpeg file for profile image using the Profiles REST API to IBM Connections_v5.0. I however get an error message "The type of the photo file you provided is not supported".
I'm however able to upload the same file directly using the Connections UI interface directly. I'm setting the MIME type correctly as "image/jpeg".
Also tried with GIF and PNG images but get the same error message.
Any pointers would be very helpful.
I'm just using FF restclient addon to fire a REST call. So basically doing a PUT on /profiles/photo.do?key=....
Content-Type is set as "image/jpeg" and the payload consists of the image data in binary (base 64) encoded.
The payload should just be the binary of the image, there is no need to Base64 encode it.
You should refer to Adding a Profile Photo
You need to use a Key (great stackoverflow post here)
If you know the key for a user's profile you can do the following:
key — This is generated by Connections itself during the population
process. It is used to define the users profile within the context of
Profiles and provides Connections with the ability to associate
content with a user when the users LDAP information has been altered.
It provides a separation of identity and helps facilitate user content
synchronization for Connections.
Once you have a key, you make the following request
URL: https://profiles.enterprise.example.com/profiles/photo.do?key=
b559403a-9r32-2c81-c99w-ppq8bb69442
METHOD: PUT
CONTENT-TYPE: image/png
input the binary content on the stream
you should be able to use "image/jpeg", "image/jpg", "image/png" or "image/gif"
If you have an error after the PUT method, you should add the SystemOut.log lines which are relevant.
