How to get thumbnail of Videos in Azure media services via REST API

Question

I am using azure media services for mobile application.It works properly.I just Want to get the thumbnails of published assets via REST API.I need API endpoints for thumbnails.

Answer 1

I read sample code and try to start a job using the AMS RestAPI(V2).

Then,you can create a SASLocator to download thumbnail when the job is finished.

POST {{RESTAPIEndpoint}}/Jobs
{
  "Name": "NewThumbnailJOB",
  "InputMediaAssets": [{
    "__metadata": {
      "uri": "{{RESTAPIEndpoint}}/Assets('nb:cid:UUID:xxxxx')"
    }
  }],
  "Tasks": [{
    "Configuration":"{
      \"Version\": 1.0,
      \"Codecs\": [
        {
          \"PngLayers\": [
            {
              \"Type\": \"PngLayer\",
              \"Width\": \"100%\",
              \"Height\": \"100%\"
            }
          ],

          }
        }
      ]
    }
",
    "MediaProcessorId": "{{Media Encoder Standard ID}}",
    "TaskBody": "<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"utf-8\"?>
                <taskBody>

                </taskBody>"
  }]
}
