Using API to get list of videos

 Hello,


Our website (complexityexplorer.org) has been using Amara for crowdsourcing the subtitling our educational videos.


We would like to use the Amara API to get SRT files for subtitles so we can make them available for our users.   Thus we would like to be able to get a list of all the videos under our Amara account.


In the API documentation, under "Listing Videos", it says that we can only query by "team" or "project".   I am not sure how to assign a "team" or "project" to each video in our account, so we can get a list of the videos through the API "get" command. 


Can you advise on how to do this?


Thank you for your enquiry: I have converted it to a ticket - #79632 - of which you should have received an email notification, as  Amara staff who will get the ticket will be able to answer you accurately.

Best,

Claude Almansi

 

Hi again,

From Dean Jansen of Amara: "Thanks for sharing this note. These kinds of requests for API usage are best addressed via an Amara Enterprise inquiry, here: http://pro.amara.org/choose-enterprise."

In fact, teams are an Amara enterprise feature and creating one might make sense for coordinating translations of your courses.

However, couldn't it be also possible to add something in introductory lessons like 1.1 How to use the Complexity Explorer website » Video (13:46) , like: "Click on the Youtube symbol in the video to view it on YouTube: in the description, you will find a link to the Amara subtitling page from which subtitles can be downloaded."?

Best,

Claude
