Uploadcare URL API Reference

Every uploaded file is immediately available on the Uploadcare CDN. The CDN includes on-the-fly processing features and can work as a proxy.

You can add CDN operations by including directives in the CDN URL: https://ucarecdn.com/:uuid/-/:operation/:params/:filename

  • :uuid stands for the unique file identifier, UUID, assigned on upload.
  • /-/ is a mandatory parsing delimiter to divide operations and other path components.
  • :operation/:params/ is a CDN operation directive with parameters.
  • :filename is an optional filename you can add after a trailing slash /.

You can stack two and more operations like this: -/:operation/:params/-/:operation/:params/

You don’t have to code most of the low-level API interactions. We have high-level libraries for all popular platforms.
