Notification API

While Panopto provides a range of built-in notifications, there are times when it would be useful to trigger a notification when a certain set of criteria is met.

This would involve making an API call passing something along the lines of the Recipients details (needs fleshing out), the notification Subject and Body and (if Panopto supports this), the Notification Type (eg email, SMS, WhatsApp) and Send DateTime.

Our current use case is that we want to notify the person specified as Owner on a recording that it has complete processing . We don't want to use the folder-level notification as we have many academics as Creators in a given module folder and they won't want to be spammed with notification email that are really just for the Owner.

We can achieve this using a third-party email service - but it would be much better if all Panopto-related notifications were generated (and logged) in Panopto.

    Thanks for the suggestion, Robert!

    Even without the usage of API, better notifications about videos being updated in some manner is a great idea. I've processed this idea, and our team is investigating possible avenues for how we would implement this.

    If anyone else has suggestions to expand upon this, or would like to share how they would use this feature, please drop a comment!
