Why use Ceven?

  1. AI native Cincopa integration

    • Describe the outcome and Ceven picks the right Cincopa calls, fills the parameters, and checks the result.
    • Structured, agent friendly tool schemas so each call runs reliably instead of by guesswork.
    • Rich coverage for reading, writing, and querying your Cincopa data, across all 5 of its actions.
  2. Managed auth

    • Built in OAuth with automatic token refresh and rotation.
    • One place to manage, scope, and revoke Cincopa access.
    • Per user and per environment credentials instead of shared keys.
  3. Agent optimized design

    • Actions are tuned from real success and error rates so reliability climbs over time.
    • Full execution logs so you always know what ran in Cincopa, when, and on whose behalf.
    • The agent pauses and asks when Cincopa is unclear instead of plowing ahead.
  4. Enterprise grade security

    • Fine grained access so you control which agents and people can reach Cincopa.
    • Least privilege by default, read scopes first and only the writes a workflow needs.
    • A full audit trail of every Cincopa action to support review and sign off.

Frequently asked questions

Ceven uses a polling mechanism to monitor the progress of your media imports. When the agent triggers an upload via URL, Cincopa returns a unique status ID. The agent then periodically calls the status endpoint to check if the asset is still processing, successfully uploaded, or if it encountered an error. This ensures that your workflow does not assume a file is available for public viewing before Cincopa has finished processing the high resolution version and generating the necessary thumbnails for your gallery. You can configure the frequency of these checks based on how quickly you need your media live.
If the source URL provided to Cincopa is unreachable or returns a 404 error, Cincopa will mark the upload as failed. Ceven monitors these status updates and can trigger a notification to your team or attempt to find an alternative source URL if one is provided in your data source. The agent will not keep polling a failed upload indefinitely, which prevents unnecessary API consumption. You can set up a specific failure path in your workflow to log these broken links in a spreadsheet for manual review by your content team.
Ceven is subject to the API rate limits imposed by your specific Cincopa subscription tier. Some tiers have strict limits on the number of concurrent uploads allowed from a single API key. If your workflow attempts to push hundreds of URLs at once, Cincopa may return a rate limit error. To handle this, Ceven implements a queue system that staggers the upload requests to stay within your account limits. If you consistently hit these ceilings, you may need to upgrade your Cincopa plan to increase your API throughput for higher volume media ingestion.
Yes, when using the upload action, the agent can specify a destination gallery ID. You can build logic into your workflow to route media based on the source. For example, images from a specific photographer can be routed to a production gallery, while final approved assets are moved to a public gallery. The agent can pull a list of your existing galleries first to ensure the ID is correct before initiating the transfer, which prevents assets from being dumped into a default root folder where they might be harder to find later.
Ceven uses secure API token authentication to communicate with Cincopa. Your tokens are encrypted at rest and are only used to sign requests sent directly to the Cincopa API endpoints. We do not share these tokens with any third party services. Because the agent operates on your behalf, every action taken by Ceven is logged within your Cincopa audit trails, allowing you to see exactly which assets were uploaded and when. You can rotate your API tokens in the Cincopa dashboard at any time to immediately revoke access.
Yes, you can use the abort action within your workflow. If you trigger a massive batch upload and notice a mistake in the source files, you can instruct the Ceven agent to cancel the pending tasks using the status IDs. This is particularly useful for very large video files that take a long time to process. By aborting the upload early, you save processing time and avoid filling your gallery with incorrect content that would otherwise need to be manually deleted after the upload completes.
Ceven supports any file type that the Cincopa API accepts, including high resolution JPEGs, PNGs, MP4s, and various audio formats. The agent simply passes the URL to Cincopa, and Cincopa handles the actual file parsing and optimization. If Cincopa cannot process a specific file format from the URL provided, the status check will return a processing error. The agent can then capture this error message and report exactly why the file failed, such as an unsupported codec or a file size that exceeds your account maximum.
