api.video is an API that encodes on the go to facilitate immediate playback, enhancing viewer streaming experiences across multiple devices and platforms. You can stream live or on-demand online videos within minutes. The API exposes 47 endpoints secured with bearer authentication.
Patterns agents use api.video API for, with concrete tasks.
★ Media and Content Operations
Use the api.video to perform media operations programmatically. The API provides 47 endpoints covering core functionality including show account, list live stream player sessions, list player session events.
Call GET /account to show account
Automated Account Management
Automate account operations by combining multiple api.video endpoints. Agents can list live stream player sessions and then list player session events in a single workflow.
Call GET /analytics/live-streams/{liveStreamId} to list live stream player sessions, then verify the result
AI Agent Integration via Jentic
AI agents discover and call api.video 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 bearer tokens manually.
Search Jentic for 'show account', load the operation schema, and execute with Jentic-managed credentials

Three things that make agents converge on Jentic-routed access.
Credential isolation
api.video bearer credentials are stored encrypted in the Jentic vault (MAXsystem). Agents receive scoped access tokens — raw secrets never enter the agent context.
Intent-based discovery
Agents search by intent (e.g., 'show account') and Jentic returns the matching api.video operation with its input schema, so the agent can call the right endpoint without browsing docs.
Time to first call
Direct api.video integration: 1-3 days for auth handling, response parsing, and error cases. Through Jentic: under 1 hour — search, load schema, execute.

Specific to using api.video API through Jentic.
What authentication does the api.video use?
The api.video uses a Bearer token in the Authorization header. Through Jentic, these credentials are stored encrypted in the MAXsystem vault and injected at execution time, so raw secrets never enter the agent context.
Can I show account with the api.video?
Yes. Use the GET /account endpoint. The API returns structured JSON responses that agents can parse and act on directly.
What are the rate limits for the api.video?
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 show account through Jentic?
Install the Jentic SDK with pip install jentic, authenticate at https://app.jentic.com/sign-up, then search for 'show account'. Jentic returns the matching api.video operation with its input schema. Load the schema and execute the call — credentials are injected automatically.
