Deduplication API

Preface

This API is completely optional. You don’t have to implement this. It will only help you to avoid useless Google calls

Thanks to Brian Doherty, a local snapshot is now made to avoid external deduplication calls on local updated files.

You can use your own API implementation to avoid multiple Youtube Music uploads. This API should match with the following requirements.

You may want to use this existing one : Google MusicManager Deduplicate API.

Exists

path	method	parameter	status code
/	GET	name	description	value	description
path	path of your file	200 or 204	Your file was already uploaded
404 (or whatever)	Your file was NOT uploaded

Saving

path	method	parameter	status code
/	POST	name	description	value	description
path	path of your file	whatever	Status code does not change anything

Removing

path	method	parameter	status code
/	DELETE	name	description	value	description
path	path of your file	whatever	Status code does not change anything
