[leylaKapi]

Hello, I try to using predict(video tagging) on javascript . After send AJAX get video url and when I added to clarifai it gives me {status: {code: 11102, description: "Invalid request", details: "Malformed or invalid request"}} error. So I try to convert base64 but didnt work.

My js code below, how can I fix it ?
Thanks in advance

const app = new Clarifai.App({
    apiKey: 'blablabla'
});
 $.ajax({
        success: function (data) {
            var url_file = data.file.url;
            // url_file is that /uploads/video.mp4 
           // also I changed to url like localhost:4000/video.mp4
            app.models.predict(Clarifai.GENERAL_MODEL, url_file, {video: true}).then(
                function(response) {
                    console.log(JSON.stringify(response));
                },
                function(err) {
                    console.log(err);
                });
        }

Hey @leylaKapi - since you're calling our API here you'll need to use a URL that is both accessible and downloadable from our end.

Can you send over a code snippet of your base64 conversion?

Hey @jared, First of all, Thank you for your helping!

When I changed my js code for base64 like below, I am getting {status: {code: 11102, description: "Invalid request", details: "Malformed or invalid request"}} error.

 $.ajax({
    success: function (data) {
           var fileInput = document.getElementById('video_file'); //getting video input
            var file = fileInput.files[0];  // getting video file
            var reader = new FileReader();
            reader.readAsDataURL(file); 
            reader.onload = function(e) {
                var video64 = reader.result;
                console.log(video64); // "data:video/mp4;base64,AA....."
                app.models.predict(Clarifai.GENERAL_MODEL, {base64: video64}, {video: true}).then(
                    function(response) {
                        console.log(JSON.stringify(response));
                    },
                    function(err) {
                        console.log(err);
                    });
            };

        }

And, I missed to remove data:video/mp4;base64, then it is fixed when I removed data:video/mp4;base64,

Thank you very much @jared, It is solved!
