Object Matrix
An Object Matrix container can be defined as an input and/or output location for your videos using either the LightFlow portal or API.
Using the LightFlow Portal
Click the Object Matrix icon on the I/O Storage page:
On the Storage Creation page that appears, enter the following information:
- Name: Name of the Object Matrix location as it will be displayed in LightFlow
- Bucket name: Object Matrix bucket name
- Account access key secret: Object Matrix account access key secret
- Account secret key secret: Object Matrix account secret key secret
- Type: Select Input, Output or Input & Output (the same bucket can be selected for input and also as a repository for the output files)
Using the LightFlow API
To create an Object Matrix endpoint with the API, send a POST instruction to api.lightflow.media/inputs-outputs
The response will include the unique identifier of the input/output storage location, which can be later selected as input (InputId
) and/or output (OutputId
) when posting a video.
curl -XPOST 'https://api.lightflow.media/inputs-outputs' \
-H 'authorization: Bearer API_KEY' \
-H 'content-type: application/json' \
-d '{
