Uploadcare

The Uploadcare modules allow you to watch and upload files in your Uploadcare account.

Getting Started with Uploadcare

Prerequisites

  • An Uploadcare account

In order to use Uploadcare with Make, it is necessary to have an Uploadcare account. If you do not have one, you can create an Uploadcare account at uploadcare.com/accounts/signup/?.

Note

The module dialog fields that are displayed in bold (in the Make scenario, not in this documentation article) are mandatory!

Connecting Uploadcare to Make

To connect your Uploadcare account to Make you need to obtain the API Key from your Uploadcare account and insert it in the Create a connection dialog in the Make module.

  1. Log in to your Uploadcare account.

  2. From the Dashboard, click any Project > API Keys > Add Secret Key.

    Note

    Each project will have a different Public Key and the Secret Key. Click the project with which you want to establish the connection.
