Upload asset via URL
Bearer authentication header of the form Bearer <token>, where <token> is your auth token.
Whether the playback policy for an asset or stream is public or signed
ID of the webhook to use for playback policy
User-defined webhook context
Interval (in seconds) at which the playback policy should be refreshed (default 600 seconds)
List of allowed origins for CORS playback (<scheme>://<hostname>:<port>, <scheme>://<hostname>)
URL where the asset contents can be retrieved, e.g. https://s3.amazonaws.com/my-bucket/path/filename.mp4.
For an IPFS source, this should be similar to: ipfs://{CID}. For an Arweave
source: ar://{CID}.
Authorizations
Bearer authentication header of the form Bearer <token>, where <token> is your auth token.
Body
URL where the asset contents can be retrieved, e.g. https://s3.amazonaws.com/my-bucket/path/filename.mp4.
For an IPFS source, this should be similar to: ipfs://{CID}. For an Arweave
source: ar://{CID}.
Whether the playback policy for an asset or stream is public or signed
public, jwt, webhook ID of the webhook to use for playback policy
User-defined webhook context
Interval (in seconds) at which the playback policy should be refreshed (default 600 seconds)
List of allowed origins for CORS playback (<scheme>://<hostname>:<port>, <scheme>://<hostname>)
Response
The name of the asset. This is not necessarily the filename - it can be a custom name or title.
Type of the asset.
video, audio The playback ID to use with the Playback Info endpoint to retrieve playback URLs.
URL for HLS playback. It is recommended to not use this URL, and instead use playback IDs with the Playback Info endpoint to retrieve the playback URLs - this URL format is subject to change (e.g. https://livepeercdn.com/asset/ea03f37e-f861-4cdd-b495-0e60b6d753ad/index.m3u8).
The URL to directly download the asset, e.g. https://livepeercdn.com/asset/eawrrk06ts2d0mzb/video. It is not recommended to use this for playback.
Whether the playback policy for an asset or stream is public or signed
public, jwt, webhook ID of the webhook to use for playback policy
User-defined webhook context
Interval (in seconds) at which the playback policy should be refreshed (default 600 seconds)
List of allowed origins for CORS playback (<scheme>://<hostname>:<port>, <scheme>://<hostname>)
Requested profiles for the asset to be transcoded into. Configured
on the upload APIs payload or through the stream.recordingSpec
field for recordings. If not specified, default profiles are derived
based on the source input. If this is a recording, the source will
not be present in this list but will be available for playback.
x > 1281 - 500x > 128x > 400Restricts the size of the output video using the constant quality feature. Increasing this value will result in a lower quality video. Note that this parameter might not work if the transcoder lacks support for it.
0 < x < 44x > 0x > 1H264Baseline, H264Main, H264High, H264ConstrainedHigh H.264, HEVC, VP8, VP9 Name of the NFT metadata template to export. 'player' will embed the Livepeer Player on the NFT while 'file' will reference only the immutable MP4 files.
