API Parts
The rtMedia API is roughly divided into three parts:
- Upload API, that allows interaction with the uploader, and the create functionality of media.
- Media API, that allows interaction with the media collections, and their display.
RESTful
The API is accessible on RESTful API endpoints, as well and allows manipulation of Media objects in rtMedia. Both theUpload Endpoint (/upload/) and Media Endpoint (/media/) are documented separately.
Concepts

- Database Description,
- the Media Object,
- the Upload Object,
- the Media Endpoint, and
