Create a publisher

A publisher by definition is a user that is allowed to broadcast on a given channel.

Multiple publishers can be granted publishing access to a given channel. If multiple publishers try to stream at the same time, only the first publisher is granted access.

A publisher can use one of the two methods to authenticate before broadcasting a stream:

1- Using stream keys ( Username and Password )

2- Using a unique JWT stream token.

In both cases, the stream key or JWT stream token needs to be saved in the broadcasting software (Ex. OBS) along with the ingest URL that is retrieved from the Manage Channel window.

The publishers can be dynamically granted/removed access to a given channel from the Webadmin interface or by calling the Access control REST APIs.
