Upload Files to AceDataCloud Platform CDN

Upload local files to the AceDataCloud platform CDN to obtain a permanently accessible URL (in the style of https://cdn.acedata.cloud/xxxxxx.png), which can be immediately referenced in other business interfaces (such as Midjourney, Suno, Flux) in parameters like image_url, reference_url, etc.

Applicable Scenarios:

  • Upload the base image to the CDN to get the URL before calling Midjourney /midjourney/imagine.
  • Cache the video generated in the previous step for use as input in the next step.
  • Temporarily host user-uploaded materials to avoid building an S3.

ℹ️ This interface belongs to the AceDataCloud Platform Management API, with a unified prefix of https://platform.acedata.cloud/api/v1/.

        headers={
            "accept": "application/json",
            "authorization": f"Bearer {PLATFORM_TOKEN}",

#     json={"prompt": "...", "image_urls": [data["file_url"]]}, ...)

Node.js

const fs = require('fs')
const FormData = require('form-data')

const form = new FormData()
form.append('file', fs.createReadStream('./photo.jpg'))

const r = await fetch('https://platform.acedata.cloud/api/v1/files/', {
  method: 'POST',
  headers: {
    authorization: 'Bearer platform-v1-92eb****629c',
    ...form.getHeaders(),

401 DRF authentication error response Missing or invalid account token

Practical Tips

  • Upload images as base images: Midjourney image_urls, Flux image_url, and Veo reference_url all accept CDN URLs, not base64. Using this interface to obtain a URL is standard practice.
  • file_url is a permanent URL—currently, there is no automatic cleanup policy, but do not upload sensitive data. If needed, please contact customer service to set a short-term TTL.
  • Bulk uploads: Recommended 2-4 concurrent uploads, a single connection can achieve ~10 MB/s.
