Upload content
Upload your videos, images, and audio files to the TwelveLabs platform. Uploading creates an asset that you can then use in different workflows.
Choose an upload method based on your file size and workflow.
Direct uploads
Upload whole files without splitting them.
Use this method when:
- You want a simple upload process
- You want to upload images, videos, or audio content
Limits:
- Local files: 200MB maximum
- URL uploads: 4GB maximum
Multipart uploads
Upload large files using chunked transfers with parallel processing. This method splits files into smaller chunks for reliable uploads.
Use this method when:
- You need to upload local files larger than 200MB
- You want parallel chunk uploads for faster performance
- You want to upload video or audio content
Limits:
- Maximum file size: 4GB
Video indexing tasks
This method will be deprecated in a future version. New implementations should use direct uploads or multipart uploads followed by separate indexing.
Upload and index videos in one operation. This method bundles upload and indexing together.
