The video upload via REST API is a very useful feature for system integrators to synchronize the VideoManager with a CMS-master.

Upload-options are full-file or chunked upload, furthermore you can optionally specify title, description and keywords as metadata, as well as define a channel-ID and group-ID the uploaded video will be assigned to.

The following steps are necessary for the upload and are described in detail:

  1. Create a video entity (with title, description)
  2. get a upload link from the file handler (the link has a timeout)
  3. upload video.

 

 

 

 

2 Get Upload URL of the given Video-ID

After the video entity has been created, the URL must be determined.

 Request

curl -X GET https://api.video-cdn.net/v1/vms/< videoManagerId>/videos/<videoId>/url"

ParameterDescription
videoManagerIdThe ID of the VideoManager, in which the new video entity has been created in the first step.
