Preview access · not provider authentication

The vk_preview_* token belongs to Vinkius preview infrastructure. It lets Claude discover and display the capabilities of Edgio, so you can see the experience inside your AI.

It does not authenticate your account with Edgio. Actions requiring credentials or live account data may not run until you activate the Connector and authorize the service.

FAQ

Questions Edgio owners ask.

  • 01

    How do I generate a playback URL for a specific video asset?

    You should use the initialize_preplay_session capability with the Asset ID. This will return a session-based playback URL (HLS or DASH) including metadata for SSAI and security.

  • 02

    Can I start and stop live broadcasts using this server?

    Yes. Use start_event to signal the beginning of a live stream and stop_event to end it. You can also use create_event to schedule new broadcasts.

  • 03

    Is it possible to update video metadata like titles or tags?

    Absolutely. The update_asset capability allows you to modify metadata fields for any existing VOD asset by providing its ID and the new JSON metadata.
