api.video Swift video uploader
api.video is the video infrastructure for product builders. Lightning fast video APIs for integrating, scaling, and managing on-demand & low latency live streaming features in your app.
Project description
api.video's Swift video uploader for iOS, macOS and tvOS uploads videos to api.video using delegated upload token or API Key.
It allows you to upload videos in two ways:
- standard upload: to send a whole video file in one go
- progressive upload: to send a video file by chunks, without needing to know the final size of the video file
Getting started

Code sample
Please follow the installation instruction and execute the following Swift code:
import ApiVideoUploader

// ApiVideoUploader.basePath = Environment.sandbox.rawValue
try VideosAPI.uploadWithUploadToken(token: "MY_UPLOAD_TOKEN", file: url) { video, error in

Rate limiting
api.video implements rate limiting to ensure fair usage and stability of the service. The API provides the rate limit values in the response headers for any API requests you make. The /auth endpoint is the only route without rate limitation.
In this client, you can access these headers by using the methods with the completion: @escaping (_ result: Swift.Result<Response<T>, ErrorResponse>) -> Void)
parameters. These methods return both the response body and the headers, allowing you to check the X-RateLimit-Limit
, X-RateLimit-Remaining
, and X-RateLimit-Retry-After
headers to understand your current rate limit status.
Read more about these response headers in the API reference.
try VideosAPI.uploadWithUploadToken(token: "MY_UPLOAD_TOKEN", file: url) { result in
switch result {
case .success(let response):
print("X-RateLimit-Limit: \(String(describing: response.header["X-RateLimit-Limit"]))")
print("X-RateLimit-Remaining: \(String(describing: response.header["X-RateLimit-Remaining"]))")
print("X-RateLimit-Retry-After: \(String(describing: response.header["X-RateLimit-Retry-After"]))")
case .failure(_):
break
}
}
Authorization
API key
Most endpoints required to be authenticated using the API key mechanism described in our documentation.
You must NOT store your API key in your application code to prevent your API key from being exposed in your source code. Only the Public endpoints can be called without authentication. In the case, you want to call an endpoint that requires authentication, you will have to use a backend server. See Security best practices for more details.
Public endpoints
Some endpoints don't require authentication. These one can be called without setting ApiVideoUploader.apiKey
.
