FiveMesh is an official Quasar partner. Quasar Phone (also known as qs-phone or Quasar Smartphone) includes a built-in FiveMesh integration for phone media uploads. Configure your FiveMesh API key in the phone’s server-side _G.fivemesh block to use FiveMesh CDN for camera images, video recordings and voice recordings.

​
Prerequisites

  • Complete FiveMesh CDN setup for the active workspace.
  • Install a Quasar Phone release that includes the _G.fivemesh configuration.
  • Have access to the phone’s server files and either a Server API Key or a Developer API Key with cdn:write permission.

Configure FiveMesh

1

Create an API key

Quasar Phone supports both key types. In the FiveMesh dashboard, choose either:
  • Server API Key (fm_server_...): Open Servers, select your registered server, then click Generate API key under Server API Key. CDN write access is included.
  • Developer API Key (fm_live_...): Open the user menu > Profile > API keys. Create a key named Quasar Phone with cdn:write permission. Use this option when you need restricted CDN path access.
Copy the secret. Either key can be used as the token in the next step. See API keys for the full workflow.If you restrict a Developer API Key to CDN path prefixes, confirm that they match the upload paths used by your installed phone version. A Server API Key’s server binding does not restrict CDN paths.

Set the server-side token

Open the phone’s server/webhook.lua file. Quasar’s installation guide uses the resource path qs-smartphone/server/webhook.lua; use your installed resource folder name.Find the existing _G.fivemesh block and replace its token value with your FiveMesh API key:
Preserve any other settings in the existing block. If _G.fivemesh is missing, update your phone resource or ask Quasar which release includes the FiveMesh integration before continuing.Keep the API key in server-side configuration. Do not place it in client Lua or the phone’s web files.
3

Restart the phone

Save the file and restart the phone resource or your server to apply the change.

​
Verify uploads

Take a photo, record a short video and create a voice recording in the phone. Check that each upload appears in the FiveMesh object browser, then open or play the media in the phone.

​
Troubleshooting

  • The FiveMesh block is missing: Confirm with Quasar that your installed version includes the integration. Adding a token alone does not add upload support to an older release.
  • Uploads fail: Check that the token is a FiveMesh API key with cdn:write, CDN provisioning has completed, and any key path restrictions allow the phone’s upload paths. Check the server console for upload errors.
  • Uploads still use another provider: Confirm that you edited _G.fivemesh in the running resource. Check your version’s upload provider settings with Quasar.
