Notification

The Notification module provides webhook configuration for automated status updates and job completion notifications. When VMS completes job or stream creation, it sends comprehensive information including status and playback URLs to pre-configured notification endpoints.

Notification Functionality​

  • Job Status: Current operational state and processing results
  • Playback URLs: Stream delivery endpoints for various output formats
  • Configuration Details: Job-specific parameters and settings
  • Additional Metadata: Relevant processing and delivery information

Integration Purpose​

The notification host serves as an HTTP API endpoint in the user's Content Management System, enabling:

  • Internal processing automation
  • Real-time status monitoring
  • Integration with existing workflows
  • Custom business logic implementation
  • Data synchronization between VMS and external systems
