Restream API — Getting Started

The Restream API lets you manage channels, schedule and control live events, read analytics, generate clips, and drive Restream Studio — all programmatically. Most endpoints are authenticated with OAuth 2.0.

Follow the Getting Started guide for a step-by-step walkthrough of registering an app, authenticating, and calling your first endpoint.
