How to invoke Kaltura API using any Rest Client

Hello All,

I’m a newbie to Kaltura platform. My goal is to invoke one of the API’s of Kaltura using rest client and retrieve the data. I do have the valid Admin secret and partner Ids.

When I try the Try me console of Kaltura , I do get the data , but when I try it from a rest client like “PostMan” , i’m not sure how to send the KS details to the Kaltura APi. Could someone please assist?

Thanks

Hello,

Firstly, I would suggest you use one the clientlibs Kaltura offers, there is also a CLI one, in case you don’t want to write actual code and instead just run commands from the shell or the Windows cmd.
Take a look here: http://www.kaltura.com/api_v3/testme/client-libs.php

If you really want to use some SOAP client, you can always run an HTTP sniffer [most browsers have the dev tools which you can use to sniff request], and check the actual HTTP call made to the Kaltura server and pass the same with your client. Or else, you can look at /opt/kaltura/log/kaltura_api_v3.log to see the calls.
