generateVideoStreamingUrl( )

Generates a URL for streaming a specific video file in the Media Manager.

To stream different assets of the file, specify the assetKeys parameter which generates a video streaming URL for each asset. If no assetKey is specified, it defaults to src, which generates one video streaming URL in the original file's format and quality.

Authentication
  • When developing websites or building an app with Blocks, this method may require elevated permissions, depending on the identity of the user calling it and the calling user’s permissions.
  • When building apps without Blocks or for headless projects, you can only call this method directly when authenticated as a Wix app or Wix user identity. When authenticated as a different identity, you can call this method using elevation.
  • Elevation permits users to call methods they typically cannot access. Therefore, you should only use it intentionally and securely.
