Roku Direct Publisher

[NACD]

Hi! We have a Vimeo Live Enterprise account with access to the Vimeo Live api. How would we implement the GET api request into the json file? Does someone happen to have an example they could share? Or do we have to retrieve the m3u8 url and pass it to the json file?

Thanks!

Hi,

You need to get the live stream HLS URL (m3u8) and pass it to your JSON content feed.
You do not need duration for liveFeeds in Roku Direct Publisher, videoType should be HLS for live stream and quality is based on the stream resolution (FHD for 1080p, HD for 720p etc.)

Here is our sample JSON with liveFeeds:

{
