API Client setup
This guide will get you all set up and ready to use the Uploadjoy API via a Typescript API client. We'll cover how to get started using the API client and how to make your first API request. We'll also look at where to go next to find all the information you need to take full advantage of our powerful REST API.
Get the client
Before making your first API request, you need to install the Uploadjoy client in your Node.js project. You can install the client using any package manager you wish.
npm install @uploadjoy/client --save
Making your first API request
After picking your preferred client, you are ready to make your first call to the Uploadjoy API. Below, you can see how to send a request to get a presigned URL to download a specific object.
import { Uploadjoy } from "@uploadjoy/client";
export const ujClient = new Uploadjoy({
apiToken: process.env.UPLOADJOY_API_TOKEN,
});
const keys = ["my-private-file.jpg"];
const response = await ujClient.presignedUrl.downloadPrivateObjects({
keys,
presignedUrlOptions: { expiresIn: 3600 },
});
console.log(response.data);
