Initialization

Prerequisites

• You have registered an Alibaba Cloud account, completed real-name authentication, and activated ApsaraVideo for VOD.
• You have obtained an AccessKey for access to ApsaraVideo for VOD. You can create an AccessKey for your Alibaba Cloud account on the Access Key Management page of Alibaba Cloud. Alternatively, you can create a RAM user in the RAM console and grant the user the permission to access ApsaraVideo for VOD. For more information, see RAM user access.

Initialization

• Reference resources.

import com.aliyuncs.DefaultAcsClient;
import com.aliyuncs.profile.DefaultProfile;
import com.aliyuncs.profile.IClientProfile;
import com.aliyuncs.exceptions.ClientException;
// You need to reference the relevant class for each API. The following example shows how to call the GetVideoPlayAuth API.
import com.aliyuncs.vod.model.v20170321. GetVideoPlayAuthRequest;
import com.aliyuncs.vod.model.v20170321. GetVideoPlayAuthResponse;

• Initialize a client.

import com.aliyuncs.profile.DefaultProfile;
import com.aliyuncs.DefaultAcsClient;
// The region of ApsaraVideo for VOD. Enter cn-shanghai for a region in China.
DefaultProfile profile = DefaultProfile.getProfile("cn-shanghai", accessKeyId, accessKeySecret);

• Define the operations to be called (the following example shows how to call the GetVideoPlayAuth operation).

GetVideoPlayAuthResponse getVideoPlayAuth(DefaultAcsClient client) {
    GetVideoPlayAuthRequest request = new GetVideoPlayAuthRequest();
    request.setVideoId("Video ID");
    GetVideoPlayAuthResponse response = null;
    try {
        response = client.getAcsResponse(request);
    } catch (ServerException e) {
        throw new RuntimeException("GetVideoPlayAuthRequest Server failed");
    } catch (ClientException e) {
        throw new RuntimeException("GetVideoPlayAuthRequest Client failed");
    }
    response.getPlayAuth(); // The video playback credential.
    response.getVideoMeta(); // The video metadata.
    return response;
}

Call example

DefaultAcsClient client = new DefaultAcsClient(profile);
getVideoPlayAuth(client);
