API to download videos in Playlist

Akash Anilkumar Agnihotri

Hi team,

I have looked at the REST API and I was able to get download_url of a video in the api/v1/sessions/

We want to allow our app users to be able to download the videos in the playlist. Is their any API to get the download without creating a session.

I have confirmed that you are correct and that currently the sessions via playlist endpoint doesn't include the download urls. For now, you will have to make multiple api calls. One to get the sessions for a playlist, and subsequent ones to get the download_url per session.

Hi!

I believe this is the request you are looking for: https://demo.hosted.panopto.com/Panopto/api/docs/index.html#/Playlists/Playlists_GetSessionsForPlaylist. It allows you to get the download_url for each session in a playlist.

Hi Asher,

Thanks for answering,

When I try to get the sessions from playlist API , the urls are null. For ex:

"EmbedUrl": null,

"ShareSettingsUrl": null,

"DownloadUrl": null,

When I use the /Panopto/api/v1/sessions/{ID} API , I am able to get the download URL.

How Can I get the urls from the Playlist url directly.
