For displaying images and videos, instead of /get_link API, we suggest you use the On-demand Image Transformations and Video Streaming delivered by FileSpin CDN.

REQUEST PARAMETERS

Parameter	Type	Description
`ASSET_ID`	string	Asset ID, 32 character alphanumeric UUID
`CONTENT_KEY`	string	`original` or any pre-defined conversion name/key for images and video transcodes. See your Settings for image and video keys.
`EXPIRY`	integer	Seconds after which the link should expire. Defaults to `6000 (10 minutes)`. Use the special value MAX to set expiry to maximum possible (defined as 19 January 2038)
`ACCESS_ID`	string	Access Id that must be used to sign URLs. You can obtain your account's Access Id from the Authorization Settings page.
`DELIVERY_MODE`	string	Optional parameter to get a link for use in display or download. Values can be `display` or `download`. Defaults to `download` which gets a link that when clicked will download the file.
`LINK_TYPE`	string	optional parameter to get CDN link or direct storage link. Values can be `cdn` or `object_storage`. Defaults to `cdn`.

Note

Set link_type=cdn when you need a link that should be served via FileSpin CDN that should be cached at the edge locations. The use case is usually for distributing files to users across the globe more than once. FileSpin pre-fetches these links for quick delivery. There may be few seconds delay before the file is cached at the edge location.
Set link_type=object_storage when you need a link that should be served directly from the Object Storage. The use case is usually for accessing the file only once.
For cdn link type, MAX expiry is 19 January 2038.
For object_storage link type, MAX expiry is 7 days (604800 seconds).
For POST request, the maximum number of assets ids that can be sent is 100
