How to create Windows Azure Media Services Access Policy without Duration or with a longer validity?

Question

I've created Azure Media Services and everything works perfectly. I've the below policy for all the Locators for streaming assets.

await context.AccessPolicies.CreateAsync("My 30 days readonly policy", TimeSpan.FromDays(30), AccessPermissions.Read);

I understand that the above policy will expire in 30 days and I'll need to re-create it. I want this assets to publically available for as long as it exists.

What would be the best way to do this?

Thanks in advance...

Windows Azure Media Services does not support infinite access policy, but you can use following example to set up maximum possible expiration time:

_mediaContext.AccessPolicies.CreateAsync("TimeSpan.MaxValue readonly policy", TimeSpan.MaxValue, AccessPermissions.Read);
