One Time Key


GET http://www.mediafire.com/api/1.3/file/one_time_key.php
POST http://www.mediafire.com/api/1.3/file/one_time_key.php

Description: Creates a one-time key. A one-time key is a key that can only be used by one recipient, which can be further restricted to a specific IP address (bind_ip). Once it has been used it can optionally be destroyed after use (burn_after_use). The API will also return information regarding how many one-time keys have been used, as well as how many can be requested, for a given 24 hour period.

Required Parameters:


Relative Parameters:

  • signature : Required only for session token version 2. Click here to learn more about building an API call signature.

Optional Parameters:

  • quick_key : The quickkey of the file to generate the one-time download link. If 'quick_key' is not passed, no link is generated, and the daily limit will be returned.
  • get_counts_only : If set to 'yes', only the daily request counts will be returned. No link is generated.
  • duration : The number of minutes this link is valid. If not passed, then the link expires after 30 days.
  • email_notification : Indicates whether or not to send an email notification to the file owner when the file is downloaded. 'yes' or 'no. (default 'no').
  • success_callback_url : An absolute URL which is called when the user successfully downloads the file.
  • error_callback_url : An absolute URL which is called when the download fails.
  • bind_ip : An IP mask/range, or a comma-separated list of IP masks/ranges, which restrict the download to only matching user's IP addresses. (e.g. '68.154.11.3/8, 145.230.230.115-145.230.240.33, 78.192.10.10').
  • burn_after_use : Configurable only if bind_ip is set & passed. Determines if the one-time link should be invalidated after first use. Values: yes | no [default].
  • response_format : 'xml' or 'json' (default 'xml')

Functionality Scenarios
  • If bind_ip is not set and passed, the system automatically sets burn_after_use to 'yes' (this setting is not changeable in this scenario). It is not necessary to set or pass burn_after_use in the API call.
  • If bind_ip is set and passed, burn_after_use allows the caller to decide whether the link should be invalidated after its first use or remain usable.

GET http://www.mediafire.com/api/1.3/file/update_file.php
POST http://www.mediafire.com/api/1.3/file/update_file.php

Notes: The response property device_revision was renamed to new_device_revision.

Description :This API provides a simple way to override a file's contents and properties with the contents and properties of another file while preserving the original file's quickkey. This is a destructive operation in that the contents and properties of the original file are lost as well as the quickkey of the file being updated from. Both from_quickkey and to_quickkey have to be non-image files, have the same extension, and be owned by the same session user. See graphic below for visual explanation of this process.



Required Parameters:

  • session_token : A type 1 or type 2 session token. (Type 2 will require a call signature).
  • from_quickkey : The quickkey of the file whose contents will replace another quickkey's contents. After this operation, this quickkey will be invalid.
  • to_quickkey : The quickkey whose contents will be replaced with the contents of 'from_quickkey'. After this operation, the original contents of the to_quickkey file will be erased.

Relative Parameters:

  • signature : Required only for session token version 2. Click here to learn more about building an API call signature.

Optional Parameters:

  • response_format : 'xml' or 'json' (default 'xml')
