Introduction

This document will guide you on how to upload your own media files (such as images or audio) via the Jogg.ai API. After a successful upload, you will receive a Jogg.ai-hosted URL, which can be used in other API calls, for example, as a video background or a custom voice source.

​
Core Concept: Obtaining a Hosted URL

Why use this API? When creating a video, certain parameters (like background_url or audio_url) require a publicly accessible URL. If your media file is not on a public server, you can use this API to upload the file to Jogg.ai’s secure servers to obtain a temporary, usable hosted URL. Even if you have a publicly accessible URL, we still recommend uploading it to Jogg.ai’s secure servers, as your own URL might cause the task to fail due to network instability.
  • Process:
    1. Upload your local file via this API.
    2. The API returns a JSON response containing a media_url.
    3. In your API request to create a video, use this media_url as the value for the corresponding parameter.
  • Request Format: File uploads must use the multipart/form-data request body format.

​
Step 1: Obtain sign_url and asset_id

You can upload media to obtain your sign_url and asset_id.
  • sign_url: Used as the address to upload media.
  • asset_id: Gets the address of the uploaded resource.
Please refer to the Upload Media for more details. Request: 
curl --request POST \
  --url https://api.jogg.ai/v1/upload/asset \
  --header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  --header 'x-api-key: <api-key>' \
--data-raw '{
    "filename":"1.jpg"
}'
Response: 
{
  "rid": "ab3329c49f320dba9a57d742195d930b",
  "code": 0,
  "msg": "<string>",
  "data": {
    "sign_url": "<string>",
    "asset_id": "<string>"
  }
}
You can upload pictures, videos, audio and other media resources.

​
Step 2: Use sign_url to upload the file

Use the following cURL command to upload the file to the server. Make sure to replace <file-binary-data> with the actual binary data of the file. Request: 
curl --location --request PUT '<sign_url>' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/octet-stream' \
--data-binary '<file-binary-data>'
Pesponse: 
{
    "rid": "1e66bb40e189f7fb2936330863c1468e",
    "code": 0,
    "msg": "success"
}
Now asset_id is an available address to get resources.

​
Step 3: Use asset_id to get the file

Here’s an example: 
curl --location --request POST 'https://api.jogg.ai/v1/create_video_from_talking_avatar' \
--header 'x-api-key: <your-api-key>' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--data-raw '{
    "audio_url": <your-audio-url>, //The media you upload.
    "aspect_ratio": 0,
    "screen_style": 1,
    "avatar_id": 127,
    "avatar_type": 0,
    "caption": true   
}'
