Usage

Direct Upload via API

Send a POST request to /api/smart-media-upload/upload-file with multipart/form-data.

Body Parameters:

• file (File): The file you want to upload.
• folderId (string/number, optional): The ID of the folder in the Media Library where the file should be saved.

Example with Fetch:

const formData = new FormData();
formData.append('file', fileInput.files[0]);
formData.append('folderId', '4');

const response = await fetch('http://localhost:1337/api/smart-media-upload/upload-file', {
  method: 'POST',
  body: formData,
});

const data = await response.json();
console.log(data);

Permissions

By default, the endpoint is public (auth: false). You can customize this in the plugin's route configuration if you need to restrict access to authenticated users or specific roles.
