This endpoint creates an asynchronous request to upload certain media from a device. Currently, only images are supported, but other types of media (e.g. videos, hyperlapse) are planned to be supported in the future. If a device is offline, the requested media will be uploaded once it comes back online.
Rate limit: 100 requests/min (learn more about rate limits here).
