Introducing: Alta Video API

Last modified: Friday November 18, 2022.

Alta Video includes a powerful application programming interface (API) that enables you to create integrations between your Alta Video deployment and third-party systems. These systems might be used for central monitoring of your premises, to play automated audio warnings over speaker systems when an Alta Video rule is triggered, to automate operations, to export data for further analysis, or for other purposes.

Alta Video features a RESTful API that uses the standard HTTP GET, PUT, POST and DELETE functions to remotely access and modify data, enabling Alta Video and the third-party systems to effectively communicate.

Alta Video includes a built-in API Explorer, enabling you to become familiar with the features and options available through the API.

To access the API Explorer:

  1. Click Settings options Alta Video settings from the top right of the Alta Video user interface.
  2. Select API Explorer.
