This article demonstrates how to use the uploadUrl response from Generate File Upload Url to upload a file to a site's Media Manager.
Note: Due to limits on the size and duration of files that you can upload, we recommend using Import File. See Wix Media: Supported Media File Types and File Sizes for more details.
This method uses the upload token included in the URL for authorization. No additional authorization is needed.
| Name | Type | Optional | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Content-Type | string | no | File content type. For example, "image/jpeg" for a jpg file. |
| Name | Type | Optional | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| filename | string | no | File name that appears in the media manager. Include the file's extension in the name to prevent potential errors. |
Note: In case of failure due to incorrect mimeType, include the file's extension in the filename parameter and set the Content-Type to 'application/octet-stream'. Doing this allows Wix servers to detect the correct content type of the file.
Note: Receiving a successful response does not indicate that the upload is complete. To run code when the upload finishes, listen for the File Ready and File Failed events. Learn more about knowing when a file is ready.
Errors from this endpoint will include an HTTP status code.
