Missing`upload_stream` documentation about cloudinary_npm HOT 6 CLOSED

I would also like to point out that the documentation for regular upload states that the file param can be an array buffer, leading to confusion, as mentioned in as well #130

Hi @nk9,

Thanks for sharing your documentation feedback with us!

That’s a great point and we’ve opened a documentation ticket to fix this and will get back to you when this is considered and fixed.

We are continually working to improve our docs' developer/user experience, and we appreciate your input.

Best regards,

@nk9 upload stream docs can now be found here https://cloudinary.com/documentation/node_image_and_video_upload#node_js_upload_stream

@raae so if you click For details and examples, see: file source options., it has more info on Upload data stream with a link to our node.js SDK implementation as well.

any questions, let me know.

Thanks for this, especially the quick turnaround. I'm curious, though: is there a reason that the method is still missing from the API documentation?

https://cloudinary.com/documentation/image_upload_api_reference#unsigned_upload_syntax

I understand that it may be called different things in different SDKs (it looks like the equivalent is upload_large in Python for some reason), but isn't that all the more reason for the various options to be enumerated in the API documentation?

@nk9 upload_stream is a method only specific to the nodejs SDK at the moment, it uses the upload API but since it is not directly a REST API endpoint, it's not included in that page.

Please note per https://cloudinary.com/documentation/upload_images#upload_data_stream, you can upload a data stream using the standard upload method for all the other SDKs, it's only node.js that requires a dedicated method at the moment.

We have included it in the nodejs docs per https://cloudinary.com/documentation/node_image_and_video_upload#node_js_upload_stream

Regarding upload_large, it is a separate method to which also uses upload API to upload large files in chunks, more here: https://cloudinary.com/documentation/upload_images#chunked_asset_upload. This method is available on all our SDKs and not Python specific.

Please let me know if you have any other questions or queries.
