title: Can I import or upload an audio file to soundcloud via the api using a URL vs. file data?
body: <p>I'm trying to upload/import a track to soundcloud via their api.</p>
  
  <p>Right now, it looks like you can only upload an audio file, but you can only do it by POSTing the file data.  </p>
  
  <p>My question is, is it possible to import to soundcloud (through the api) from a URL?</p>
  
  <p>sort of like they do here: <a href="http://importer.soundcloudlabs.com" rel="nofollow">http://importer.soundcloudlabs.com</a></p>
  
  <p>but via the soundcloud api.</p>
  
  <p>Any ideas?  I don't really want to make this a 2 legged process (download audio file, then upload file data to soundcloud)</p>
  
  <p>Thanks!</p>
