Welcome developers,

We have great news!
As of today (18^th of May 2010) we have opened up the VP Factory API for testing purposes. You can check it out here.

It’s in beta stage and there still is room for improvement. We would appreciate your feedback and suggestions. You can also visit the Google Groups dedicated to the API to get support and ask questions.

API KEY

API access is available only to Start plan users, yet for a limited period of time (until 25^th of June 2010 July 30, 2010 ) anyone can apply for an API KEY. Your API key will remain active after this period.

To get a KEY: Login to your account (or register for a free account if you don’t have one yet), go to My Account section and press Request API KEY. You will receive your key via email.

At the core of every video sharing website (such as Youtube, Vimeo and others) stands the functionality which enables uses to upload their own videos. An easy way to let the users upload their video content is to provide an upload button.

What does it do?

It lets you browse for a video on your computer and then uploads the video into a test account. After the processing is over, the video will appear in the player

Limitations

The size limit for the uploaded video is 10 MB.
If you don’t have a video to match this size you can use this one. (Download it to your computer first)
