Fileupload - Edwardie

Unlike traditional systems where the platform holds encryption keys, Edwardie Fileupload generates a client-side key that is never stored. The key can be optionally shared via a separate channel (e.g., a password sent via SMS).

The Edwardie Fileupload API is RESTful and accepts JSON payloads. A basic cURL example:

curl -X POST https://api.edwardie.io/v1/upload \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" \
  -F "file=@/path/to/large_dataset.zip" \
  -F "options=\"expires_in\":3600, \"max_downloads\":3"

Response:

  "upload_id": "edw_9f3k2d1a",
  "download_url": "https://share.edwardie.io/edw_9f3k2d1a",
  "decryption_hint": "send-via-sms",
  "chunks_total": 42

You can also use the resumable upload endpoint to recover failed transfers:

curl -X PATCH https://api.edwardie.io/v1/upload/edw_9f3k2d1a/resume \
  -H "Range: bytes=10485760-"
