Uploads
How to provide files to the Cleanvoice API.
Option 1: Public URL
Pass the file URL directly in the files array. The API fetches it — no upload step needed.
curl -X POST https://api.cleanvoice.ai/v2/edits \
-H "X-API-Key: $CLEANVOICE_API_KEY" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{
"input": {
"files": ["https://example.com/episode.mp3"],
"config": {
"fillers": { "enabled": true }
}
}
}'Works with any direct download URL: S3, GCS, Dropbox (?dl=1), Google Drive, or your own CDN.
Option 2: File upload
For local files, use a three-step process.
Step 1 — Request a signed upload URL:
curl -X POST https://api.cleanvoice.ai/v2/uploads \
-H "X-API-Key: $CLEANVOICE_API_KEY" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"filename": "episode.mp3", "content_type": "audio/mpeg"}'Response:
{
"upload_url": "https://storage.example.com/upload/...",
"file_url": "https://storage.example.com/episode.mp3"
}Step 2 — PUT your file to the upload URL:
curl -X PUT "https://storage.example.com/upload/..." \
-H "Content-Type: audio/mpeg" \
--data-binary @/path/to/episode.mp3Step 3 — Submit the edit using the file_url:
curl -X POST https://api.cleanvoice.ai/v2/edits \
-H "X-API-Key: $CLEANVOICE_API_KEY" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{
"input": {
"files": ["https://storage.example.com/episode.mp3"],
"config": {
"fillers": { "enabled": true }
}
}
}'Uploaded files are automatically deleted 7 days after processing.
Multi-track
For interviews or multi-speaker recordings, pass multiple file URLs and set upload_type to "multitrack":
curl -X POST https://api.cleanvoice.ai/v2/edits \
-H "X-API-Key: $CLEANVOICE_API_KEY" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{
"input": {
"files": [
"https://example.com/host.mp3",
"https://example.com/guest.mp3"
],
"upload_type": "multitrack",
"config": {
"fillers": { "enabled": true }
}
}
}'This is multi-track, not batch processing. Multiple files are treated as separate tracks of the same recording (e.g. host mic + guest mic). To process multiple independent files, create a separate edit request for each one.
