# Captura

Bring your own backend screen recorder

## Bring Your Own Backend (Protocol version 1.0)

Captura allows you to define a URL that will be used to POST the recording.

### The Request

A `POST` will be made to the request, with the payload containing the binary
contents of the file. You can expect the following headers:

* `User-Agent`: `Captura/1.0`
* `Content-Type`: `video/mp4` or `image/gif`, depending on the output format
  selected.

### Authentication / Authorization

We will only do a POST request, so if you need any type of keys or user
identifiers, include them in the URL itself (eg. via path elements or
in the query parameters)

### Expected Response

If the upload is successful, the response *MUST* be a JSON object containing
a key called `url` with a value of type `string` corresponding to the URL
where the file is available. The status code *MUST* be 201 Created.

Any response code other than 201 Created will be treated as an error. Captura
will not re-attempt an upload.
