Set a guest upload key
Turn on guest uploading for a gallery and get the link to share.
PUT https://cotlet.dev/api/v1/smugmug/galleries/{gallery_id}/guest-upload-key
write Confirm
Sets the Guest Uploading field under Security & Sharing and returns the upload link. Anyone with the link can upload into this gallery and only this gallery. Guests still need the viewing password for a password gallery, and an invitation for a People I Choose gallery, to see photos. By default you confirm each call; you can switch that off for this tool.
Parameters
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| gallery_id string required | string | Gallery ID from list_galleries. |
| key string required | string | Letters and digits only. Guests can see it in the link. An empty value removes the key. |
