Notice

Use file_code or url. Both take a comma separated list (up to 50 file codes, up to 25 URLs); every item gets its own entry in result.
file_status: 200 the file exists, 404 it does not exist, was deleted, or the short link is unknown, 451 unavailable.
Your own files return the full details. For a file of another user only file_status, filecode, size and url are returned.
url in the reply is the link you sent, or the link of the file when you sent file_code. Only links of this site are accepted.
The details of a video of your own have more keys while the video features of the site are on: renditions (the versions that were made, with quality l Low, n Normal, h HD, x UHD, size in bytes, width, height and length in seconds; an empty list while there are none), captions (the subtitles: lang, label, srclang and the url of the WebVTT file; an empty list when there are none), poster and thumbnail (the pictures every video has), and when they were made screenlist (one image with a grid of frames) and slider (the frames the player shows under the mouse: one strip, tiles frames of width x height pixels). A key is only there when the site has that feature; a file that is no video has none of them. More about the versions: File encodings, Subtitles, Regenerate pictures.
