Retrieve Template Credential types

Lists the Template Credential types supported by Transloadit.

GEThttps://api2.transloadit.com/template_credentials/types

Run the request example below to discover the current service fields. In the response, select your service under types, then inspect types[service].fields. For example, types.s3.fields describes the fields accepted for S3 credentials.

Use those field names inside the content object when creating or updating credentials. A field with requiredOnCreate set to true must have a nonempty value when creating credentials. A field with requiredOnUpdate set to true must have a nonempty value whenever you supply content on an update. If either flag is absent or false, that field is not required for that operation. See updating credentials for omitted-content and secret-preservation behavior.

The schema download describes this response’s structure, not the current service catalog; the authenticated discovery response supplies the field names, explanations, and requirements.

Request example

Canceled Workspaces cannot create new bearer tokens. This endpoint remains available with an existing active Auth Key: use the signed read recipe instead of the token setup below. The key must grant this endpoint’s required scopes.

Run this request in a server-side shell with curl and a suitable bearer token in TRANSLOADIT_TOKEN. If you need a token, expand the setup below.

Need a bearer token?

In a trusted server-side shell with curl and jq, set TRANSLOADIT_KEY and TRANSLOADIT_SECRET to your Auth Key and Auth Secret. Keep both credentials and the resulting token secret; never run this setup in browser code.

This endpoint has no specific scope requirement. The token below inherits your Auth Key’s scopes.

if ! TOKEN_RESPONSE="$(curl --fail-with-body -sS \
  --request POST \
  --url 'https://api2.transloadit.com/token' \
  --user "${TRANSLOADIT_KEY:?Set TRANSLOADIT_KEY}:${TRANSLOADIT_SECRET:?Set TRANSLOADIT_SECRET}" \
  --header 'Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded' \
  --data-urlencode 'grant_type=client_credentials' \
  --data-urlencode 'aud=api2')"; then
  printf '%s\n' "$TOKEN_RESPONSE" >&2
  exit 1
fi
TRANSLOADIT_TOKEN="$(printf '%s' "$TOKEN_RESPONSE" |
  jq -er '.access_token | strings | select(length > 0)')" || exit 1

Keep this shell open and run the request below. Reuse the token while it remains valid.

curl --fail-with-body -sS --request GET --get \
  --url "https://api2.transloadit.com/template_credentials/types" \
  --header "Authorization: Bearer ${TRANSLOADIT_TOKEN:?Set TRANSLOADIT_TOKEN}" \
  --data-urlencode 'params={}'

Authentication

This endpoint accepts signed params or a bearer token. See Authentication for setup instructions.

Signed requests require both a signature and a future params.auth.expires timestamp. Bearer tokens do not require either.

Query parameters

  • params (JSON string). A JSON-encoded object whose supported keys are listed below.

  • signature (string). Required for signed requests. Omit this field when using a bearer token.

Supported keys inside the signed params field

Authentication fields in this list apply to signed requests. With a bearer token, you can omit params.auth and the separate signature field. Compare the authentication-specific request parameters below.

required for signed requests; optional with a bearer token

object

Contains the Transloadit API key and signature-authentication metadata for a Template Credentials request.

params.auth: Only the fields listed for this object are accepted.

params.auth.expires

required

string

ISO 8601 expiration timestamp in the future. Required when a request is signed or requires signature authentication; bearer-authenticated requests may omit it.

params.auth.key

required

string

Transloadit API key used to authenticate requests

params.auth.nonce
string | integer

Unique, random value included in signed request params to make each signature unique and prevent accidental signature reuse.

params.nonce
string | integer

Unique, random value included in signed request params to make each signature unique and prevent accidental signature reuse.

Request parameters by authentication method

With signed params

Include your Auth Key as params.auth.key. When signing the request, include a future params.auth.expires timestamp and send the signature in the separate signature field. The field definitions below use paths inside params.

With a bearer token

Send the bearer token in the Authorization header. You can omit params.auth and the separate signature field. Other required parameters still apply. The field definitions below use paths inside params.
