C# Net Core Web API. Is it possible to send a file via POST api to a server and get a temporary link to it?

Question

C++ / C#

Good afternoon.

Is it possible to send a file via POST api to a server and get a temporary link to it?
I want to send a file to api, modify it there and return a temporary link to it, so that after downloading the file is either deleted from the server or not stored at all.

Can I do this?
Does anyone have a mini example?

thanks in advance

Answer 1

put the file in a specific folder and delete it by timeout (wrong but simple), you can analyze the server logs to understand who is downloading the file or not , or implement the distribution of the file yourself (wrong from an architectural point of view)

Answer 2

Do the following
Post /api/tempfile url:, passkey
Get /api/tempfile/url/passkey
Del /api/tempfile/url/passkey
Additionally, you can pervert with chunks, that is, split the file into parts of 2 megabytes and look at the contentrange header Removing parts after download
