estoy tratando de usar UploadLegacy para subir un video a peertube, pero quisiera no usar #curl pero sino http. por preferencia personal.

Framacolibri · HTTP API video upload legacy pathHello, After successfully managed to use bruno (postman like) to upload a video, I am working towards to automate the process. But I would like, if possible, to not use curl https://docs.joinpeertube.org/api-rest-reference.html#tag/Video-Upload/operation/uploadLegacy If I use « add file » it works, (thats how I got it working on the previous topic) However, Id like to be able to use the PATH, like in the curl example.

"API keys are foundational elements for authentication, but relying solely on them is inherently a risky proposal.

Firstly, there’s the reality that API keys are not securely designed — they were never meant to be used as the sole form of authentication, and as such, they aren’t really built for the task. These keys can often be easily stolen, leaked, or, in some cases (especially if generated incrementally), outright guessed. An API key is suitable for tracking usage but is poor for security.

There is also the additional reality that keys in their default state lack some critical functionality. There’s not a lot of verification built-in for identity management, and what does exist offers very little in the way of granular access control.

Ultimately, solely relying on API keys is a mistake common with novice developers but frighteningly common even in advanced products.

Best Practices
Instead of relying heavily on API keys as a sole mechanism, combine those keys with additional approaches such as OAuth 2.0 or mTLS. Implement rigorous expiration and rotation policies to ensure that keys which are made public are only useful for a short amount of time. Consider more advanced approaches, such as IP whitelisting or device fingerprinting, to add another layer of security atop the API key process."
