Platform API Reference


Endpoints

The Dailymotion Platform API is served over HTTPS and accessible on the following endpoints depending on your API key type:

Public API key
Private API key
https://api.dailymotion.com
https://partner.api.dailymotion.com

We recommend using UTF-8 encoding for all interactions with the API.

Getting started

To get more insights before diving into the API reference, please read the Getting started article to see how to authenticate and interact with the API objects, fields and filters.


Global API Parameters

The following query-string parameters are valid for all API objects and can be provided along with any type of request. Some of them are strongly recommended if you want to enhance your end-user experience.

ParameterDescriptionType
ams_countryChange the country for the asset management.
By default, the country is auto-detected based on the IP address of the API consumer. Changing this value will filter out content geo-blocked for the defined country and will affect the geo-blocking mechanism.
string
contextAdditional call context for this request.
Some resources of the API require that you provide contextual information along with your request in order to return relevant data. This is especially useful when the API cannot retrieve or guess this additional information by itself. Contextual information should only be provided when expressly needed by the resource you are trying to query. Values should be passed as an embedded and URL encoded query string.

E.g.: ?field=data&context=key1%3Dvalue1%26key2%3Dvalue2
string
device_filterFilter out content and change media assets.
By default, the device is auto-detected based on the user-agent of the API consumer. Changing this value will filter out content not allowed on the defined device.

Possible values: detect web mobile and iptv
string
family_filterEnable/disable the “sensitive content” filter.
By default, the family filter is turned on. Setting this parameter to false will stop filtering-out explicit content from searches and global contexts. You should always check the result’s explicit field when applicable as some contexts may still return those contents. You should also flag them in your UI to warn the user about the nature of the content.

Possible: true or false
boolean
localizationChange the default localization of the user.
This will affect results language and content selection. Note that changing the localization won’t give access to geoblocked content of the corresponding location. The IP address of the API consumer is always used for this kind of restriction.

You can use a standard locale like fr_FRen_US (or simply enit) but you can also provide detect to tell the API to detect the most probable locale based on the consumer’s location
string
thumbnail_ratioChange the size ratio for all video thumbnails.

By default: original
Possible values: originalwidescreen and square
string

To use a global parameter, simply add it to any request’s query-string like so:

GET https://api.dailymotion.com/video?family_filter=false&localization=it

videos

List of videos contained in this playlist (in the order defined by its owner).
This connection joins an object of type playlist with a list of video objects.

public readable writable

List of videos contained in this playlist (in the order defined by its owner).
This connection joins an object of type playlist with a list of video objects.

Read the playlist's videos connection

You can retrieve the list of videos connected to a playlist object by issuing a GET request to /playlist/<PLAYLIST_ID>/videos. You can specify the list of fields from the video objects to be returned using the fields parameter.
Test it with the API Explorer.

You can also see if any video is connected to an existing playlist object by issuing a GET request to /playlist/<PLAYLIST_ID>/videos/<VIDEO_ID>. This will return a list containing only the connected video object or an empty list if it is not connected.

Create a playlist's videos connection

You can connect videos to an existing playlist object one by one by issuing multiple POST requests to /playlist/<PLAYLIST_ID>/videos/<VIDEO_ID>.

You can connect multiple videos to an existing playlist object at once by issuing one POST request to /playlist/<PLAYLIST_ID>/videos?ids=<VIDEO_ID>,...,<VIDEO_ID>. Note that the order of the identifiers is saved.

Delete a playlist's videos connection

You can disconnect videos from a playlist object by issuing DELETE requests to /playlist/<PLAYLIST_ID>/videos/<VIDEO_ID>. You can also disconnect all videos at once by issuing a POST request to /playlist/<PLAYLIST_ID>/videos with an empty ids query-string parameter.
Test it with the API Explorer.

To retrieve a specific video object, perform a GET request on /video/<VIDEO_ID>. By default, only a small number of fields marked as default are returned (such as the object identifier), please refer to the complete field list below. For help on requesting specific fields, see the fields selection section.

To retrieve a list of video objects, perform a GET request on /videos. You can also use one of the several connections available through the channel, playlist, user and video graph objects. You can then use filters (if any) to filter down the result set, see the filtering section for more information.

To create an object of type video, perform a POST request on the connection available through the user graph object. Join all the fields you want to specify and their value as an application/x-www-form-urlencoded payload. Please note that, for creation, some fields and/or specific query-string parameters could be mandatory, please refer to the field list below.

No Yes No
log_view_urls

A one time usage list of URLs that will be called in order to log video view events.

The format of the dict is a key containing the label of the log URL + some directive on when to call it and the URL as value.
If the app encounters a key format it doesn’t understand, it should skip it with a console warning.
The format of the key is as follows: <label>(@<rule>)?
The label value is a alphanumeric string : [A-Za-z0-9]+
If no @ followed by rules is present, it means the URL has to be called as soon as the video starts (equivalent to label@0).
When the "mode" field of the video object is "live" and any ‘%’ character is found in the rules, the key should be skipped with a console warning.
The rule format is as follows: <delay>([,|]<delay>)*(/<recurrence>)?
The delay value can contain time spent in seconds (## or ##s) or minutes (##m), or in percentage of video duration (##%).
Delays can be separated by comas (all delays apply) or pipes (first match win, others are ignored).
It is not allowed to mix comas and pipes in the same rule. If not specified, default delay should be considered as "0s".
The recurrence value can contain time spent in seconds (## or ##s) or minutes (##m), or in percentage of video duration (##%).
The first recurrent trigger must occur after all the relevant delays have been triggered. It means that delay condition(s) (if valid) have total priority over the recurrence condition (see examples below).

Here are examples of valid keys:

  • logview : triggered as soon as the video starts.
  • liked@50%|10m : triggered when the user has spent the equivalent of 50% of the total video duration (time spent by the user = <video duration in seconds> * 0.5) or watched 10 minutes of the video (first match win)
  • ads@10s,639s : triggered when reaching 10 seconds AND 639 seconds of playback (all delays apply)
  • progress@10s/30s : triggered when reaching 10 seconds, and then each time the user watch 30 seconds of the video
  • progress@10s/10% : triggered when reaching 10 seconds, and then each time the user watch the equivalent of 10% of the total video duration (<video duration in seconds> * 0.1)
  • progress@/20% : triggered as soon as the video starts, and then each time the user watch the equivalent of 20% of the total video duration (<video duration in seconds> * 0.2)

The URL may contain markers that must be replaced by the client:

  • %session% marker is replaced by a generated UDID stored on the client to identify the users session over several requests. If the app can’t store such id, the URL must be ignored.
  • %time% marker is replaced by an integer value containing the total time spent in seconds by the client since he has started the video (it is NOT the number of seconds of the player playback position). For example, if the user watch 10 seconds of the video, then seek to 70% of the video and watch 5 additional seconds then stop, %time% is equal to 15 (seconds).
  • %position% marker is replaced by a float value between 0 and 1 (decimal separator is a point and not a coma and with at least 3 decimals) containing the current position of the player playback in percentage (it may be possible that multiple events are sent with the same position value within a single video view, when a seek occured). When the "mode" field is "live", this value should always be replaced by 0.
