When you create an object or update its metadata, you can
optionally set the Content-Encoding
metadata. This metadata enables you to indicate that the
object content is compressed without losing the identity of
the underlying media type (Content-Type) of
the file, such as a video.
Example 1.9. Content-Encoding header request: HTTP
This example assigns an attachment type to the
Content-Encoding header that
indicates how the file is downloaded:
PUT /<api version>/<account>/<container>/<object> HTTP/1.1 Host: storage.clouddrive.com X-Auth-Token: eaaafd18-0fed-4b3a-81b4-663c99ec1cbb Content-Type: video/mp4 Content-Encoding: gzip
