ApsaraVideo Live:DescribeLiveUserStreamMetricData

Last Updated:Jun 22, 2026

Queries stream-level batch data for a specified streaming domain. Multiple protocols are supported.

Operation description

Note

Querying new connections for the HLS protocol is not supported. Concurrent connections for HLS are counted based on requests in the default format. Requests in special formats require configuration by submit a ticket. The default formats are as follows:

  • m3u8 request example: http(s)://example.aliyundoc.com/Appname/ StreamName.m3u8

  • ts request example: http(s)://example.aliyundoc.com/Appname/ StreamName/153xxxxxxxx_137xxxxx.ts.

Settings

  • Single query limit: A maximum of 5000 rows of data can be returned per query.

  • Domain name query limit: Only a single domain name is supported. An error is returned if multiple domain names are specified.

  • Time span limit: The maximum query time span is 24 hours.

  • Time granularity limit: The minimum query granularity is 1 minute.

  • Query range limit: The maximum query range is 31 days.

  • Call frequency limit: The maximum call frequency per user is 10 calls per second.

  • Special parameter combination: When DomainName is not empty and both AppName and StreamName are set to all, the aggregate data for the streaming domain is returned.

RAM authorization

The table below describes the authorization required to call this API. You can define it in a Resource Access Management (RAM) policy. The table's columns are detailed below:

  • Action: The actions can be used in the Action element of RAM permission policy statements to grant permissions to perform the operation.

  • API: The API that you can call to perform the action.

  • Access level: The predefined level of access granted for each API. Valid values: create, list, get, update, and delete.

  • Resource type: The type of the resource that supports authorization to perform the action. It indicates if the action supports resource-level permission. The specified resource must be compatible with the action. Otherwise, the policy will be ineffective.

    • For APIs with resource-level permissions, required resource types are marked with an asterisk (*). Specify the corresponding Alibaba Cloud Resource Name (ARN) in the Resource element of the policy.

    • For APIs without resource-level permissions, it is shown as All Resources. Use an asterisk (*) in the Resource element of the policy.

  • Condition key: The condition keys defined by the service. The key allows for granular control, applying to either actions alone or actions associated with specific resources. In addition to service-specific condition keys, Alibaba Cloud provides a set of common condition keys applicable across all RAM-supported services.

  • Dependent action: The dependent actions required to run the action. To complete the action, the RAM user or the RAM role must have the permissions to perform all dependent actions.

Request parameters

Parameter

Type

Required

Description

Example

DomainName

string

No

The streaming domain to query.

Note

Only a single domain name is supported. An error is returned if multiple domain names are specified. If the domain name is empty, aggregate data for all streaming domains under the user is queried. If AppName and StreamName are not specified, stream-level data for all streams under the domain is returned.

test.com

StartTime

string

Yes

The beginning of the time range to query. Specify the time in the ISO 8601 standard in the YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ssZ format. The time must be in UTC.

2015-12-10T20:00:00Z

EndTime

string

Yes

The end of the time range to query. The end time must be later than the start time and the difference cannot exceed 1 day. Specify the time in the ISO 8601 standard in the YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ssZ format. The time must be in UTC.

2015-12-10T21:00:00Z

AppName

string

No

The application name. Specify the application name to query stream-level data for the corresponding application. If StreamName is specified, AppName must also be specified.

app

StreamName

string

No

The stream name. If StreamName is specified, stream-level data for the specified StreamName under the specified AppName is returned. If StreamName is specified, AppName must also be specified.

test.flv

Protocol

string

No

The stream protocol name. Specify the protocol name to query data for the corresponding protocol. Supported protocols: flv, hls, rtmp, rts, p2p. You can query data for multiple protocols by separating them with commas (,). Data for multiple protocols is not aggregated and is output at the stream level.

Note

The rts option queries Real-Time Streaming (RTS) streams using the ARTC protocol.

  • When using rts, you may need to additionally count the xxx_AliRTS-opus transcoding stream. This is because when playing an RTS stream on the web, a transcoding stream with the _AliRTS-opus suffix appended to the stream name is automatically generated, producing transcoding stream data. For more information, see RTS sub-second latency automatic transcoding.
