oEmbed Service


The oEmbed Service delivers a full media embed code from a URL.

1.1 | oEmbed JSON Output

The default output of the oEmbed Service is a JSON encoded string containing the embed code and information about the video (e.g. provider, author, size, thumbnail). Several options can be specified/overruled by issuing query string parameters of which the url query string parameter is required.

It’s also possible to change the width and height of the playout and the width and height of the thumbnail image.
