How it works

Make a PATCH request to this endpoint. Replace <mediaId> with the unique ID (uploadId or id) of the media you received after uploading to FastPix
Include the updated parameters in the request body.
The response returns the updated media data, confirming the changes.
Monitor the video.media.updated webhook event to track the update status in your system.

Example

If a user uploads a video and later needs to change the title, add a new description, or update tags, you can use this endpoint to update the media metadata without re-uploading the entire video.
