Uploading image using multipart form data question

dlado

Hi David,

I have a question regarding uploading photos.

I sow in the API that you have the posibility to upload photos using the endpoint http://upload.smugmug.com/photos/xmladd.mg that use multipart form data.

I saw the parameters and it seems that oAuth is not allowed, isn't it ? receives the SessionID

do you have any example of the post data I have to send??

Not only for Multipart but also for Raw HTTP Post or HTTP put.

Thanks in advance!

Hey Damian,

Yes, at this point, we don't support OAuth for multi-part POST.

Here's a simple example of both a raw POST and PUT using OAuth in javascript...

Raw POST

var xmlhttp=new XMLHttpRequest();
xmlhttp.open("POST", "http://upload.smugmug.com/photos/xmlrawadd.mg", false);
xmlhttp.setRequestHeader('Content-Length', '<filesize in bytes>');
xmlhttp.setRequestHeader('Content-MD5', '<MD5 of file>');
xmlhttp.setRequestHeader('Authorization', 'OAuth oauth_consumer_key="..." oauth_signature_method="..." oauth_nonce="..." oauth_signature="..." oauth_timestamp="..." oauth_version="..."');
xmlhttp.setRequestHeader('X-Smug-AlbumID', '1234');
xmlhttp.setRequestHeader('X-Smug-FileName', 'photo.jpg');
xmlhttp.setRequestHeader('X-Smug-ResponseType', 'JSON');
xmlhttp.setRequestHeader('X-Smug-Version', '1.2.2');
xmlhttp.send(<image data>);

PUT

var xmlhttp=new XMLHttpRequest();
xmlhttp.open("PUT", "http://upload.smugmug.com/photo.jpg", false);
xmlhttp.setRequestHeader('Content-Length', '<filesize in bytes>');
xmlhttp.setRequestHeader('Content-MD5', '<MD5 of file>');
xmlhttp.setRequestHeader('Authorization', 'OAuth oauth_consumer_key="..." oauth_signature_method="..." oauth_nonce="..." oauth_signature="..." oauth_timestamp="..." oauth_version="..."');
xmlhttp.setRequestHeader('X-Smug-AlbumID', '1234');
xmlhttp.setRequestHeader('X-Smug-ResponseType', 'JSON');
xmlhttp.setRequestHeader('X-Smug-Version', '1.2.2');
xmlhttp.send(<image data>);

Let me know if you have any questions.

Cheers,

David
