#### Example
### Example

Examples that demonstrate how to use the API is provided in folder `examples/`.

### Upload methods
## Upload methods

To upload a video, you have 3 differents methods:
* `WorkManager`: preferred method: Upload with Android WorkManager API. It supports progress notifications, upload in background, queue, reupload after lost connections. Directly use, WorkManager extensions. See [example](https://github.com/apivideo/api.video-android-uploader/tree/main/examples/workmanager) for more details.
* `UploadService`: Upload with an Android Service. It supports progress notifications, upload in background, queue. You have to extend the `UploadService` and register it in your `AndroidManifest.xml`. See [examples/service](https://github.com/apivideo/api.video-android-uploader/tree/main/examples/service) for more details.
* `WorkManager`: preferred method: Upload with Android WorkManager API. It supports progress notifications, upload in background, queue, reupload after lost connections. Directly use, WorkManager extensions. See [example](examples/workmanager) for more details.
* `UploadService`: Upload with an Android Service. It supports progress notifications, upload in background, queue. You have to extend the `UploadService` and register it in your `AndroidManifest.xml`. See [example](examples/service) for more details.
* Direct call with `ApiClient`: Do not call API from the main thread, otherwise you will get an `android.os.NetworkOnMainThreadException`. Dispatch API calls with Thread, Executors or Kotlin coroutine to avoid this.

Most endpoints required to be authenticated using the API key mechanism described in our [documentation](https://docs.api.video/reference#authentication).

In the case, you want to call an endpoint that requires authentication, you will have to use a backend server. See [Security best practices](https://docs.api.video/sdks/security) for more details.


#### Public endpoints
### Public endpoints

Some endpoints don't require authentication. These one can be called with a client instantiated without API key:
```kotlin
val videosApi = VideosApi()
```

### Recommendation
## Recommendation

It's recommended to create an instance of `ApiClient` per thread in a multithreaded environment to avoid any potential issues.
For direct call with `ApiClient`: Do not call API from the main thread, otherwise you will get a `android.os.NetworkOnMainThreadException`. Dispatch API calls with Thread, Executors or Kotlin coroutine to avoid this. Alternatively, APIs come with an asynchronous counterpart (`createAsync` for `create`) except for the upload endpoint.
