API - Identify Reference Copy

Is there an API that can identify if a Session is a reference copy, and an API that can return the session details for the original copy of a reference copy session ?

    Hi Tyron,

    We don't have such API at the moment, but if you use REST API to get sessions for the folder for example you would also get copies in the results.

    I hope that was helpful.

    Thanks,

    Adis

  • Not exactly what I was asking. We need to identify the correct copy to apply captions to, if the file is a reference copy. Does not look like Panopto support providing that information, which is unfortunate.

  • The reference copy session record will have a Created Date later than the original. Would that give you enough ?

  • No this will not help. I will try and explain the situation.

    If you get a list of sessions, we need to know if a session is a reference copy, and if so what the session id is of the original.

    What I would ultimately like is a new 'OriginSessionId' nullable Guid field for the session class (https://support.panopto.com/resource/APIDocumentation/Help/html/274bb7c0-cfb1-6c7e-0338-b16ac4eb8051.htm) . This field should therefore be null if the session is NOT a reference copy, and populated with the Guid of the original session id if it is a reference copy.
