# Qencode With Wasabi

[Qencode](https://cloud.qencode.com/) has been validated for use with Wasabi. Qencode is a cloud transcoding platform that enables users to encode videos in the most customizable, cost-efficient, flexible, and scalable way possible.

## Prerequisites

- An active Wasabi account
- An active Qencode account

## Reference Architecture

The architecture details the transcoding workflow with Qencode. You may provide the source file either by uploading the video or by providing a link to the video file. The transcoded file is saved to Wasabi.

## Configuration

Follow the steps outlined below to configure Qencode to integrate with Wasabi. In this example, Wasabi is used as a source and destination of the transcoding job.

1. Log in to the Qencode portal.

1. Select your Project from the dropdown menu on the right. In the "Select Media" section, provide the URL of the file. It can be a pre-signed URL or the link to the file if it is enabled for public access. Click “Save”.

To generate a pre-signed URL for your file, please refer to [How do I generate pre-signed URLs for temporary access with Wasabi?](https://docs.wasabi.com/docs/how-do-i-generate-pre-signed-urls-for-temporary-access-with-wasabi)

***Note:****In the example below, the source video for the job is in a Wasabi bucket and it is being accessed using a pre-signed URL.*

***Note:******This configuration example discusses the use of Wasabi's us-east-1 storage region. To use other Wasabi storage regions, use the appropriate Wasabi service URL as described in***[*Service URLs for Wasabi's Storage Regions*](https://docs.wasabi.com/docs/what-are-the-service-urls-for-wasabis-different-storage-regions)*.*
  - Bucket name
  - Endpoint - Service URL of the Wasabi region (e.g. s3.us-east-1.wasabisys.com)
  - Access Key ID
  - Secret Access key
2. In the "Select Output Format" section, select the required settings for codec, output format etc. Provide the output path for the transcoded file. Per the example below, the transcoded video file will be saved in the bucket qencodetest and the name of the file will be installvideocoding.mp4.
