# 5centsCDN - Livestreams

API for managing Live Streams in <a href="https://www.5centscdn.net" target="_blank">5centsCDN</a>. The API exposes 173 endpoints secured with apiKey authentication.

## For AI agents

Programmatically list streams, stream. Covers 173 operations with apiKey authentication.

## Scope

Does not handle payments, communications, or crm - use for hr and recruiting only.

## Capabilities

- List streams
- Stream
- Create Push
- Update Info
- Delete Info

## Use cases

### HR and Recruiting Operations

Use the 5centsCDN - Livestreams to perform hr recruiting operations programmatically. The API provides 173 endpoints covering core functionality including list streams, stream, create push.

Example prompt: Call GET /streams to list streams

### Automated List Streams Management

Automate list streams operations by combining multiple 5centsCDN - Livestreams endpoints. Agents can stream and then create push in a single workflow.

Example prompt: Call GET `/streams/push` to stream, then verify the result

### AI Agent Integration via Jentic

AI agents discover and call 5centsCDN - Livestreams endpoints through Jentic without managing credentials directly. An agent searches for the required operation by intent, receives the matching endpoint schema, and executes the call with Jentic-managed authentication. This eliminates the need to read API documentation or handle apiKey tokens manually.

Example prompt: Search Jentic for 'list streams', load the operation schema, and execute with Jentic-managed credentials

## Key endpoints

## Why Jentic

- **Setup:** Wiring the 5centsCDN Livestreams API by hand means attaching its X-API-Key header to every request against api.5centscdn.com and managing push streams and their statistics yourself. Through Jentic you install once, import the 5centsCDN Livestreams API from the API Directory, store the API key once, and your agent calls it.
- **Permission scoping:** 5centsCDN puts the stream id in the URL path (`/streams/push/{streamid}/...`), so a rule can pin your agent to one stream: it can read that stream and its statistics and nothing else. You choose the operations it may call, so a destructive one like deleting a stream is not included unless you add it.
- **Credential handling:** Your 5centsCDN API key is stored once, encrypted, by your own Jentic One instance and injected at execution time. It never enters the agent's prompt, logs, or context.
- **Discovery method:** Agents search Jentic by intent such as 'list live streams' or 'get stream statistics', and Jentic returns the matching 5centsCDN Livestreams operation with its input schema so the agent calls the right endpoint without browsing the reference docs.

## FAQ

### What authentication does the 5centsCDN - Livestreams use?

The 5centsCDN - Livestreams uses an API key passed in the `X-API-Key` header. Through Jentic, these credentials are stored encrypted in your Jentic One instance and injected at execution time, so raw secrets never enter the agent context.

### Can I list streams with the 5centsCDN - Livestreams?

Yes. Use the GET /streams endpoint. The API returns structured JSON responses that agents can parse and act on directly.

### What are the rate limits for the 5centsCDN - Livestreams?

Rate limits are not specified in the OpenAPI spec. Check the vendor documentation for current limits. Through Jentic, rate limiting is handled automatically with retry logic built into the execution layer.

### How do I list streams through Jentic?

Install the Jentic SDK with pip install jentic, authenticate through Jentic One, the self-hosted execution layer, then search for 'list streams'. Jentic returns the matching 5centsCDN - Livestreams operation with its input schema. Load the schema and execute the call - credentials are injected automatically.

### How many endpoints does the 5centsCDN - Livestreams have?

The 5centsCDN - Livestreams exposes 173 endpoints covering list streams, push streams, pull streams operations.

### Can I limit what my agent is allowed to do with the 5centsCDN Livestreams API?

Yes. Because you run Jentic One yourself, your own rules decide which 5centsCDN Livestreams operations and credentials the agent may use. Since the API carries the stream id in the URL path (`/streams/push/{streamid}/...`), you can pin the agent to a single stream and grant it read-only calls like GET /streams and the statistics endpoint while withholding everything else. A destructive operation such as DELETE `/streams/push/{streamid}` is only available if you explicitly add it to the agent's allowed set.
