I need to build a way to upload videos using the API and jquery and/or html5. I have been looking at this (http://kaltura.github.io/jQuery-File-Upload/) but I do not see a way to add a title to the video when it is uploaded or identify an owner, etc. Correct me if I am wrong, but all this seems to do is upload the video to a drop folder. I need something more along the lines of the Kaltura Contribution Wizard. Is there an example API script available that someone is willing to contribute? If someone could point me in the right direction, I would appreciate it.
Hi,
I admit I am not well versed with this specific code but our API allows you to set the title and owner [and a bunch of other things] when uploading.
Look at this script:
https://github.com/kaltura/platform-install-packages/blob/Jupiter-10.8.0/RPM/scripts/postinst/upload_test.php
It uploads a file provided as a CLI argument but can easily be converted to run in web context. It is written in PHP but the same can be done with any of our client libs [we also have a JS and a NodeJS lib, if you are interested].
$entry = new KalturaBaseEntry();
$entry->name = $title;
And you can add:
$entry->userId = ‘jess’;
And other attribs if you’d like.
BTW, you might want to join us for Kaltura Connect Virtual Summits:

Will be happy to see you there,
Perfect, Thank you for pointing me in the right direction.
Sure, happy to assist.
