    ApsaraVideo VOD：CreateUploadVideo

    更新時間：Dec 19, 2024

    Obtains an upload URL and an upload credential for uploading an audio or video file and generates the audio or video ID. ApsaraVideo VOD issues upload URLs and credentials to perform authorization and ensure security. This prevents unauthorized users from uploading media files. ApsaraVideo VOD generates media IDs, video IDs, and image IDs together with upload URLs and credentials. Media IDs are used in lifecycle management and media processing.
