`upload_link_create`

Create an upload link

Create a hosted BitterClip upload link for local audio or video files. Prefer this when the user wants a link or another camera operator will contribute later. Pass capture_session_id to add multiple files or a whole device folder to one footage-session chronology. A link cannot add files directly to an existing episode: create a footage session for that episode and pass its capture_session_id.
