How to upload image on cloudinary in ASP.NET MVC?

You can upload images on cloudinary following these steps for C# .NET

1. Install Cloudinary using Nuget package manager console.
   

   Install-Package CloudinaryDotNet?

2. Now you need to use the following namespaces in your C# code
   

    using System.Collections.Generic;
   using System.Web;
   using CloudinaryDotNet;
   using CloudinaryDotNet.Actions;?

3. Create  Cloudinary Object using API key and password provided to you after sign up, pass the image file to ImageUploadParams() function and call cloudinary's Upload function
   

   var myAccount = new Account { ApiKey = apiKey, ApiSecret = apiSecret, Cloud =  cloudName }; 
   Cloudinary _cloudinary = new Cloudinary(myAccount);
   
   var uploadParams = new ImageUploadParams()
   {
     File = new FileDescription(@"c:\my_image.jpg");
   };
   var uploadResult = _cloudinary .Upload(uploadParams);??

4. get Uploaded file url using uploadResult.SecureUri.AbsoluteUri;
5. That's it you are done, If you want to pass additional details like Image Width, height, you can use the C# code like below
   

    var uploadParams = new ImageUploadParams {
    File = new  FileDescription(file.FileName,file.InputStream), 
   //transformation code here
   Transformation = new  Transformation().Width(200).Height(200).Crop("thumb").Gravity("face") 
     };
    
   var uploadResult = _cloudinary.Upload(uploadParams);?

6. For Video upload use C# code as

   var uploadParams = new VideoUploadParams()
     {
       File = new FileDescription(@"dog.mp4"),
       ResourceType = "video"
       PublicId = "my_folder/my_sub_folder/my_dog",
       Overwrite = true,
       NotificationUrl = "http://mysite/my_notification_endpoint"
     };
     var uploadResult = cloudinary.Upload(uploadParams);

   The video will overwrite the existing my_dog video if it exists. When the video upload is complete, the specified notification URL will receive details about the uploaded media asset.
