Example 1: Create a Website Media File

Create a new media file entry with a website URL:

const request = require('request');

const access_token = 'YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN';

var options = {
  url: 'https://cloud.viewneo.com/api/v1.0/mediafile',
  method: 'POST',
  headers: {
    'Content-Type': 'application/json',
    'Authorization': 'Bearer ' + access_token
  },
  body: JSON.stringify({
    name: 'viewneo',
    media_file_id_as_parent_directory: 0,
    url: 'https://www.viewneo.com'
  })
};

request(options, (error, response, body) => {
  if (error) {
    return console.error('Error: ', error);
  }
  console.log('Response body: ' + body);
});

Key points:

Uses POST to the /mediafile endpoint
Sets media_file_id_as_parent_directory to 0 for the root folder
The url field specifies the website to embed

Example 2: Upload an Image File

Upload a JPEG image from the local file system:

const request = require('request');
const fs = require('fs');

const access_token = 'YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN';

var options = {
  url: 'https://cloud.viewneo.com/api/v1.0/mediafile',
  method: 'POST',
  headers: {
    'Content-Type': 'multipart/form-data',
    'Authorization': 'Bearer ' + access_token
  },
  formData: {
    media_file_id_as_parent_directory: 0,
    file: fs.createReadStream('./src/image.jpg')
  }
};

request(options, (error, response, body) => {
  if (error) {
    return console.error('Error: ', error);
  }
  console.log('Response body: ' + body);
});

Key points:

Uses multipart/form-data for file uploads (not JSON)
The file field streams the image from disk
The same /mediafile endpoint handles both website and file uploads
