Hello everyone! With a steady stream of fresh content coming through the community each month, it can be hard to catch everything. To help you find some highlights you might have overlooked, I’m bringing you a roundup of essential resources from July. Here’s what’s new and noteworthy this month:

Resource of the Month: Create a Video Snipper for TikTok

Customizing user-generated video for TikYok can be a challenge, so we’ve put together a full guide that will help you build a simple web app in Next.js. This app will help users customize their videos to fit TikTok using Cloudinary’s video management functionalities.

Feature of the Month: Managing Your API Key

Recently Cloudinary made some changes to the Programmable Media dashboard to increase the security of your API key. We’ve seen an increase in questions since the change, so our Director of Developer Experience Engineering @colbyfayock put together a video to help you find your credentials, as well as manage your API keys and use them securely.

Project of the Month:
AI Enhanced Photo Captioner

Adding alt text to images you share on social media is necessary but it can be a challenge to write a good description. Cloudinary Community Expert Teri Eyenike has just released a new app that uses Cloudinary and AI to help you with the process. He’s also shared a guide on how he did it.
