Nuelink accepts a single file per upload and returns a media id you can reference in POST /posts.

ℹ️ Platform-specific constraints still apply. Even within the 100 MB ceiling, each social platform enforces its own limits: Instagram caps video length, TikTok requires certain aspect ratios, and so on. Media that passes Nuelink’s upload check may still be rejected at publish time by the target platform. Check each platform’s publishing guidelines when targeting a specific format.
