https support for tmp storage

Hi Tim, Hi all,

No sure if this already discussed but..
When we use transloadit to our users upload files, it’s quite common to show a preview for that previous file. The problem is that, because our users are on https we must show a preview using https too, otherwise clients will get a browser security error.
Currently, transloadit returns the temporary url of uploaded file (eg: http://tmp.transloadit.com.s3.amazonaws.com/… ) but we need the https version.
Note that, when we store files on a third-party storage outside transloadit we get “url” and “ssl_url”. For temporary, a ssl_url is needed too.
Is this planned? Any workaround for get the https version?

best,

Francisco Azevedo

Hey there,

this has shipped. The new parameter is called “ssl_url”. Can you please confirm this is working as expected for you?

Kind regards,
