Support for copy/move video through API

Janelle LamarcheJanelle Lamarche Tyro
in API

Good morning

I can't find any references to copy & move videos in your api (REST or SOAP)

Can you confirm if there is way to do this?

    Moving can be done using MoveSessions.

    I don't think there is a way to copy a session, at least not via the SOAP API.

    Thank you Charles.

    Hello,

    Are there any updates on this? Is copying sessions already a feature request, and if so, is there an ETA for it?

    Many thanks

    Hello Cristiano,

    I am sorry but we do not have ETA to provide copy API at this time.

    We would really like to have a copy API too.

    Our scenario is courses that are taught together physically but are managed separately in the learning management system. So we have to populate the recordings into multiple course folders in Panopto. And since the schedule in Panopto can only send the recording to one folder, a copy function will be very useful here.

    I see this has been sitting for a few years, but I am now running into the scenario that Douglas mentions above - two courses taught together with two separate Canvas instances (and because of that, Panopto folders for each course.) While we can manually create reference copies, it would be great to automate this from one course folder to another. I had thought about just embedding the Panopto link into the other course, but permissions for viewing would be an issue.

    Any thought about making the ability to automatically create a reference copy to another folder rather than make this something manual that the faculty has to do themselves?

    Hi Elaine,

    We now have the session copy API in our REST API (/api/v1/sessions/{id}/sessioncopy).

    https://demo.hosted.panopto.com/Panopto/Api/Docs/index.html#/Sessions/Sessions_Copy

    You can use this API to do a full or reference copy of the session.

    I hope this helps.

    Thanks,

    Adis
