Overview

The node "NCA Toolkit" processes media files using the No Code Architects Toolkit API. Specifically, for the Media Operation resource with the Extract Metadata operation, it allows users to submit a media file URL to extract metadata information from that media. This is useful for scenarios where you need to analyze media files to retrieve details such as format, duration, codec, and other metadata attributes. For example, it can be used in media management workflows to automatically gather metadata for video or audio files hosted online.

Use Case Examples

  1. Extract metadata from a video file hosted on a public URL to catalog its properties in a media library.
  2. Send a media URL and receive metadata details to validate file format and duration before further processing.

Properties

Name Meaning
Media URL URL of the media file to process, required input for metadata extraction.
Webhook URL Optional URL to receive a webhook notification when processing is complete.
Custom Job ID Optional custom identifier for tracking this request.
Request Options Additional request settings such as batching, SSL certificate validation, proxy configuration, and timeout settings.

Output

JSON

  • metadata - Extracted metadata information from the media file.
  • jobId - Identifier for the processing job, useful for tracking.
  • webhookStatus - Status of the webhook notification if a webhook URL was provided.

Dependencies

  • No Code Architects Toolkit API
  • API key credential for authentication

Troubleshooting

  • Ensure the Media URL is accessible and publicly reachable; inaccessible URLs will cause request failures.
  • If using a webhook URL, verify it is correctly configured to receive notifications.
  • Timeout errors may occur if the server is slow or unresponsive; adjust the timeout setting accordingly.
  • SSL certificate validation errors can be bypassed by enabling the 'Ignore SSL Issues' option, but this reduces security.
