Create a subscriber

A subscriber by definition is a user that is allowed to view a stream on a given channel.

Multiple subscribers can be granted viewing access to a given channel. Viewers can only view the streams via the CDN. The CDN and Media platform have a seamless integration and does not require any additional configuration.

A subscriber 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 videoplayer (Ex. JWPlayer) along with the viewing URL that is retrieved from the Manage Channel window.

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