Transform Google Drive links into shareable streaming URLs
The DOTFLIX API allows you to convert Google Drive video links into shareable streaming URLs. Simply provide your authorization key and a Google Drive URL, and receive a shareable link in return.
All API requests require dual authentication with both an authorization key and an API key. Include both keys in the request body:
{
"authorization": "your-auth-key-here",
"apiKey": "your-api-key-here"
}⚠️ Important: Keep both your authorization key and API key secure and never expose them in client-side code. Both keys are required for all API requests.
