FriendlyNamestring required

A descriptive string that you create to describe the resource. It can be up to 100 characters long and it must be unique within the account.

Enabledboolean

Whether the composition hook is active. When true, the composition hook will be triggered for every completed Group Room in the account. When false, the composition hook will never be triggered.

VideoLayoutunknown
AudioSourcesstring[]

An array of track names from the same group room to merge into the compositions created by the composition hook. Can include zero or more track names. A composition triggered by the composition hook includes all audio sources specified in audio_sources except those specified in audio_sources_excluded. The track names in this parameter can include an asterisk as a wild card character, which matches zero or more characters in a track name. For example, student* includes tracks named student as well as studentTeam.

AudioSourcesExcludedstring[]

An array of track names to exclude. A composition triggered by the composition hook includes all audio sources specified in audio_sources except for those specified in audio_sources_excluded. The track names in this parameter can include an asterisk as a wild card character, which matches zero or more characters in a track name. For example, student* excludes student as well as studentTeam. This parameter can also be empty.

Resolutionstring

A string that describes the columns (width) and rows (height) of the generated composed video in pixels. Defaults to 640x480. The string's format is {width}x{height} where:

  • 16 <= {width} <= 1280
  • 16 <= {height} <= 1280
  • {width} * {height} <= 921,600

Typical values are:

  • HD = 1280x720
  • PAL = 1024x576
  • VGA = 640x480
  • CIF = 320x240

Note that the resolution imposes an aspect ratio to the resulting composition. When the original video tracks are constrained by the aspect ratio, they are scaled to fit. See Specifying Video Layouts for more info.

Format'mp4' | 'webm'

The container format of the media files used by the compositions created by the composition hook. If mp4 or webm, audio_sources must have one or more tracks and/or a video_layout element must contain a valid video_sources list, otherwise an error occurs.

StatusCallbackstring uri

The URL we should call using the status_callback_method to send status information to your application on every composition event. If not provided, status callback events will not be dispatched.

StatusCallbackMethod'GET' | 'POST' http-method

The HTTP method we should use to call status_callback. Can be: POST or GET and the default is POST.

Trimboolean

Whether to clip the intervals where there is no active media in the Compositions triggered by the composition hook. The default is true. Compositions with trim enabled are shorter when the Room is created and no Participant joins for a while as well as if all the Participants leave the room and join later, because those gaps will be removed. See Specifying Video Layouts for more info.

Response

Created

account_sidstring nullable

The SID of the Account that created the CompositionHook resource.

friendly_namestring nullable

The string that you assigned to describe the resource. Can be up to 100 characters long and must be unique within the account.

enabledboolean nullable

Whether the CompositionHook is active. When true, the CompositionHook is triggered for every completed Group Room on the account. When false, the CompositionHook is never triggered.

date_createdstring date-time nullable

The date and time in GMT when the resource was created specified in ISO 8601 format.

date_updatedstring date-time nullable

The date and time in GMT when the resource was last updated specified in ISO 8601 format.

sidstring nullable

The unique string that we created to identify the CompositionHook resource.

audio_sourcesstring[] nullable

The array of track names to include in the compositions created by the composition hook. A composition triggered by the composition hook includes all audio sources specified in audio_sources except those specified in audio_sources_excluded. The track names in this property can include an asterisk as a wild card character, which matches zero or more characters in a track name. For example, student* includes tracks named student as well as studentTeam. Please, be aware that either video_layout or audio_sources have to be provided to get a valid creation request

audio_sources_excludedstring[] nullable

The array of track names to exclude from the compositions created by the composition hook. A composition triggered by the composition hook includes all audio sources specified in audio_sources except for those specified in audio_sources_excluded. The track names in this property can include an asterisk as a wild card character, which matches zero or more characters in a track name. For example, student* excludes student as well as studentTeam. This parameter can also be empty.

video_layoutunknown
resolutionstring nullable

The dimensions of the video image in pixels expressed as columns (width) and rows (height). The string's format is {width}x{height}, such as 640x480.

trimboolean nullable

Whether intervals with no media are clipped, as specified in the POST request that created the CompositionHook resource. Compositions with trim enabled are shorter when the Room is created and no Participant joins for a while as well as if all the Participants leave the room and join later, because those gaps will be removed. See Specifying Video Layouts for more info.

format'mp4' | 'webm'

The container format of the media files used by the compositions created by the composition hook. If mp4 or webm, audio_sources must have one or more tracks and/or a video_layout element must contain a valid video_sources list, otherwise an error occurs.
