V‑Cloud 1.6 Release Notes (July 2020)
V‑Cloud 1.6 includes several new features and parameters, including:
V‑Cloud now allows users to submit audio data through a URL. This method uses the
url
parameter as an alternative to thefile
parameter. The provided URL must support HTTPGET
and return aContent-Length
header when queried. V‑Cloud will verify that the data was properly received from the URL if either aContent-MD5
orETag
header are provided in response to querying the URL.V‑Cloud now allows users to specify a callback format with the
callbackfmt
parameter. There are three format options available:multi
performs a multi-partPOST
to the callback with two parts specifying the request ID and the resulting file content.single
performs a standardPOST
that only contains the result file content within thePOST
body.put
is identical tosingle
except the callback is performed using an HTTPPUT
instead of aPOST
.
V‑Cloud now allows users to send the results of erroneous jobs to a specific callback server with the
callbackerror
parameter. Ifcallbackerror
isn't specified, erroneous job results are sent to the URL defined in thecallback
parameter instead.V‑Cloud now allows users to enable or disable MD5 verification of audio data using the
filemd5
parameter.filemd5
has 3 options:true
is the default value and specifies that MD5 verification should be performed if possible.false
specifies that MD5 verification should not be performed.User-specified 128-bit value - Specify a sequence of 32 hexadecimal digits to use for MD5 verification.
V‑Cloud now supports HTTP basic authentication for callbacks. When a callback server requires authentication information, prepend your access credentials to the hostname in the URL as shown in the following example:
https://
username
:password
@hostname.com
