Working with media resources
Using the Atom Publishing Protocol, or Atompub, you can upload and replace files in your blog.
- Create media resources
When you upload a file to a blog, the server creates a media resource entry to represent the file. To create a media resource, post the file to the blog using the HTTP POST method.- Retrieving a media resource
You can retrieve a copy of the file itself or you can retrieve the file's metadata. To retrieve a copy of the file, use the edit-media link found in each entry in the media resource link entries feed. To retrieve file metadata, use the edit link found in each entry in the blog's media link entries feed.- Updating media resources
To update a file uploaded to a blog, send an updated version of the file to the existing Media Resource's edit-media URI.- Delete media resources
To delete a file uploaded to a blog, use the HTTP DELETE method.
