We are a Swiss Army knife for your files

Transloadit is a service for companies with developers. We handle their file uploads and media processing. This means that they can save on development time and the heavy machinery that is required to handle big volumes in an automated way.

We pioneered with this concept in 2009 and have made our customers happy ever since. We are still actively improving our service in 2024, as well as our open source projects uppy.io and tus.io, which are changing how the world does file uploading.

Copy files from cloudflare to Tus servers

In this demo we show how you can use Transloadit's API to copy files from cloudflare to Tus servers.

Once you set up the recipes, Transloadit can do this for you automatically.

Optionally you could also transform the files between the import from cloudflare and the export to Tus servers.

You can for example encode videos, optimize images, detect faces, and much more.

⚠️ It seems your browser does not send the referer, which we need to stop people from (ab)using our demos in other websites. If you want to use the demos, please allow your browser to send its referer to us. Adding us to the allowlist of blockers usually helps.

Step 1: Import files from Cloudflare R2

We are happy to import from whatever storage solution suits you best. Learn more ›

⚠️ It seems your browser does not support the codec used in this video of the page. For demo simplicity we'll link you to the original file, but you may also want to learn how to make videos compatible for all browsers.

  "result": true,
  "credentials": "YOUR_CLOUDFLARE_CREDENTIALS",

}
🤖/cloudflare/import
This bot imports whole directories of files from your cloudflare r2 bucket

Step 2: Export files to Tus-compatible servers

We export to the storage platform of your choice. Learn more ›

Tricky to demo, but in this Step the following files were exported to Tus-compatible servers:

imported
  • BRUNTSFIELD.jpg
  • STOCKBRIDGE.jpg
  • snowflake.jpg
  • ravi-roshan-383162.jpg
  • desert.jpg

Once all files have been exported, we can ping a URL of your choice with the Assembly status JSON.

"exported": {
  "robot": "/tus/store",
  "use": "imported",
  "result": true,
  "credentials": "YOUR_TUS_CREDENTIALS"
}
🤖/tus/store
This bot exports encoding results to any Tus-compatible server
Since this is a store Robot, be sure to use Template Credentials so that any sensitive data is encrypted and stored in our database, making sure that they’re never exposed to any end-user.

So many ways to integrate

Transloadit is a service for companies with developers. As a developer, there are many ways you can put us to good use.
  • Bulk imports

    Add one of our import Robots to acquire and transcode massive media libraries.
  • Handling uploads

    We are the experts at reliably handling uploads. We wrote the protocol for it.
  • Front-end integration

    We integrate with web browsers via our next-gen file uploader Uppy and SDKs for Android and iOS.
  • Back-end integration

    Send us batch jobs in any server language using one of our SDKs or directly interfacing with our REST API.
  • Pingbacks

    Configure a notify_url to let your server receive transcoding results JSON in the transloadit POST field.
