How do I set a live video as "Featured" using the DailyMotion API?

I'm trying to sort out how to update a user's "Featured Video" via the DailyMotion API. When I'm logged into the DailyMotion site, this is a pretty straight forward process - there is a "Change Featured Video" button on the user home page. I don't see where this is made accessible within the API.

To be as specific as possible, this is a live stream I'm creating and would like to feature.

Please advise.

Solution

  • you have to use the videostar field: https://developer.dailymotion.com/documentation#user-videostar-field

    You need your user to accept the manage_videos scope in order to do this.
