Manage a live session enabled by Google Ad Manager

Using the Video Stitcher API, you create a live session each time you start playback of a livestream in which ads served by Google Ad Manager are dynamically stitched during ad breaks. The response contains the playback URL and the configuration of the live session.

This page describes how to create and manage a live session that is enabled by Google Ad Manager. For information on live sessions that don't use Google Ad Manager, see Manage a live session.

Before you begin

  • Create a live config. For the integration with Google Ad Manager, ensure that the gamLiveConfig object is set.
  • If you are specifying a slate, ensure that the gamSlate object is set on the slate you register.

Create a live session

You can create a live session by using the IMA SDK (which calls the Video Stitcher API) or by using the Video Stitcher API directly.

Use the IMA SDK

If you are integrating with the IMA SDK, the IMA SDK creates the live session.

function requestVideoStitcherStream() {
  const streamRequest = new google.ima.dai.api.VideoStitcherLiveStreamRequest();
  streamRequest.liveStreamEventId = 'LIVE_CONFIG_ID';
  streamRequest.region = 'LOCATION';
  streamRequest.projectNumber = 'PROJECT_NUMBER';
  streamRequest.oAuthToken = 'OAUTH_TOKEN';
  streamRequest.networkCode = 'NETWORK_CODE';
  streamRequest.customAssetKey = 'CUSTOM_ASSET_KEY';

  streamManager.requestStream(streamRequest);
}

You can set or override the following optional parameters per session:

See the next section to learn how to set these parameters using the IMA SDK.

Optional parameters and overrides

You can set optional parameters per session, like the manifestOptions field. This field is not available in the live config. You can also override certain parameters that are set in the live config for a given session.

For example, if the default adTracking on the live config is set to SERVER, you can override that value to CLIENT and also set the manifestOptions field in the IMA SDK by setting the videoStitcherSessionOptions JSON object field.

function requestVideoStitcherStream() {
  const streamRequest = new google.ima.dai.api.VideoStitcherLiveStreamRequest();
  streamRequest.liveStreamEventId = 'LIVE_CONFIG_ID';
  streamRequest.region = 'LOCATION';
  streamRequest.projectNumber = 'PROJECT_NUMBER';
  streamRequest.oAuthToken = 'OAUTH_TOKEN';
  streamRequest.networkCode = 'NETWORK_CODE';
  streamRequest.customAssetKey = 'CUSTOM_ASSET_KEY';
  streamRequest.videoStitcherSessionOptions = {
    adTracking: 'CLIENT',
    'manifestOptions': {
      'includeRenditions': [
        {
          'bitrateBps': 150000,
          'codecs': 'hvc1.1.4.L126.B0'
        },
        {
          'bitrateBps': 440000,
          'codecs': 'hvc1.1.4.L126.B0'
        },
      ],
      'bitrateOrder': 'descending'
    }
  };

  streamManager.requestStream(streamRequest);
}

For more information, see Add streaming session options.

Use the API directly

To create a live session using the API directly, use the projects.locations.liveSessions.create method.

The liveConfig field is the only required field in the JSON body. You can set or override the following optional parameters per live session (as shown in the following REST example):

  • manifestOptions: specifies which video renditions are generated in the stitched video manifest and the ordering of the renditions; see the manifest options documentation
  • adTracking: select either client-side ad tracking or server-side ad tracking; this overrides the value in the live config for the session
  • targetingParameters: a Google Ad Manager ad tag can contain targeting parameters that can be updated per session; provide a mapping in this field (for example, to replace the [my_key] macro with the string my_value, see the REST example)

REST

Before using any of the request data, make the following replacements:

  • PROJECT_NUMBER: your Google Cloud project number located in the Project number field on the IAM Settings page
  • LOCATION: the location in which to create your session; use one of the supported regions
    Show locations
    • us-central1
    • us-east1
    • us-west1
    • asia-east1
    • asia-south1
    • asia-southeast1
    • europe-west1
    • southamerica-east1
  • LIVE_CONFIG_ID: the user-defined identifier for the live config

To send your request, expand one of these options:

You should receive a JSON response similar to the following:

{
  "name": "projects/PROJECT_NUMBER/locations/LOCATION/liveSessions/SESSION_ID",
  "playUri": "PLAY_URI",
  "manifestOptions": {
    "includeRenditions": [
      {
        "bitrateBps": 150000,
        "codecs": "hvc1.1.4.L126.B0"
      },
      {
        "bitrateBps": 440000,
        "codecs": "hvc1.1.4.L126.B0"
      }
    ],

  puts "Live session: #{response.name}"
end

The response is a live session object. The playUri is the URL the client device uses to play the ad stitched stream for this live session.

The Video Stitcher API generates a unique session ID for each request. A session expires if the playUri is not requested within the past 5 minutes.

If you're generating a session on behalf of your customers' devices, you can set the following parameters using HTTP headers:

Parameter HTTP Header
CLIENT_IP x-forwarded-for
REFERRER_URL referer
USER_AGENT user-agent

You can add the following headers to the preceding curl request:

-H "x-forwarded-for: CLIENT_IP" \
-H "referer: REFERRER_URL" \
-H "user-agent: USER_AGENT" \

If the x-forwarded-for header is not provided, the Video Stitcher API uses the client's IP address in ad metadata requests. Be aware that the client's IP address may not match the IP of your customers' devices if sessions are generated on behalf of your customers' devices.

Get a session

To get the live session, use the projects.locations.liveSessions.get method.

REST

Before using any of the request data, make the following replacements:

  • PROJECT_NUMBER: your Google Cloud project number located in the Project number field on the IAM Settings page
  • LOCATION: the location in which to create your session; use one of the supported regions
    Show locations
