The docs for API endpoints can be found in the Supported Operations section below.

*Highly recommended to use async methods if possible.

Import the jwplatform library:

using jwplatform;

Initialize a new jwplatform API with your API Key and API Secret
(Here is how to find those values):

var jwplatformApi = new Api(API_KEY, API_SECRET);

You can use jwplatformApi to make any API request.

**All request paths need to begin with a / in order to properly execute.

The following are some examples of how to accomplish 4 different types of requests.

An example of how to get to information about a video with the Media Id MEDIA_ID.

var jwplatformApi = new Api(API_KEY, API_SECRET);

var requestParams = new Dictionary<string, string> {
	{"video_key", "MEDIA_ID"}
}

// Asynchronously
var response = await jwplatformApi.GetRequestAsync("/videos/show", requestParams);

// Synchronously
var response = jwplatformApi.GetRequest("/videos/show", requestParams);

An example of how to update the title and author of a video with the Media Id MEDIA_ID.

var jwplatformApi = new Api(API_KEY, API_SECRET);

var requestParams = new Dictionary<string, string> {
	{"video_key", "MEDIA_ID"},
	{"title", "New Title"},
	{"author", "New Author"}
}

// Asynchronously
var response = await jwplatformApi.PostRequestAsync("/videos/update", requestParams, true);

// Synchronously
var response = jwplatformApi.PostRequest("//videos/update", requestParams, true);

An example of how to create a new video tag on your account.

var jwplatformApi = new Api(API_KEY, API_SECRET);

var requestParams = new Dictionary<string, string> {
	{"name", "New Tag"}
}

// Asynchronously
var response = await jwplatformApi.PostRequestAsync("/accounts/tags/create", requestParams, false);

// Synchronously
var response = jwplatformApi.PostRequest("/accounts/tags/create", requestParams, false);

Uploading files is a two-step process.

1. A /videos/create call is done to set up the video's info.
   (See here to see the video info properties that can be set)
2. The video file is uploaded.

For more information on the uploading process, see here.

An example of how to upload a local video file to your account.

var jwplatformApi = new Api(API_KEY, API_SECRET);

var videoInfo = new Dictionary<string, string> {
	{"title", "My Video"},
	{"author", "Me"}
}

var localFilePath = "path/to/video_file.mov";

// Asynchronously
var response = await jwplatformApi.UploadAsync(videoInfo, localFilePath);

// Synchronously
var response = jwplatformApi.UploadRequest(videoInfo, localFilePath);

To run the unit tests, you must have a local copy of the client. You can easily run the tests using Visual Studio by opening the Test Explorer.

If using .NET CLI, run the following command in the root of the project:

dotnet test
