Use Content-Encoding metadata
When you create an object or update its metadata, you can optionally
set the Content-Encoding
metadata. This metadata enables
you to indicate that the object content is compressed without losing the
identity of the underlying media type (Content-Type
) of the
file, such as a video.
Example Content-Encoding header request: HTTP
This example assigns an attachment type to the
Content-Encoding
header that indicates how the file is
downloaded:
PUT /<api version>/<account>/<container>/<object> HTTP/1.1
Host: storage.clouddrive.com
X-Auth-Token: eaaafd18-0fed-4b3a-81b4-663c99ec1cbb
Content-Type: video/mp4
Content-Encoding: gzip
