How do I upload a video to a specific playlist?

Question

This is the first time I am working with Brightcove. I have been given access to an existing account with many playlists and videos.

I am looking at the create_video example. I don't see where I am supposed to specify the playlist for the video.

How do I upload a video to a specific playlist?

Answer 1

If you are using a tag-based "smart playlist", you just need to add the appropriate tag to the video.

{"method": "create_video", "params": {"video": {"name": "Name","tags": ["playlistTag"],"shortDescription": "...","itemState": ""},"token": "TOKEN","encode_to":"","create_multiple_renditions": ""}}

If the video is to be added to a manual playlist, use update_playlist after create_video.
