Tip

Before you create a streaming endpoint, you should review the Media Services live streaming best practices guide.

Methods

Use the following methods to update a streaming endpoint.

Portal

Update a streaming endpoint in the portal

1. Navigate to the Media Service account you want to work with.
2. Select Streaming endpoints from the menu. The Streaming endpoints screen will appear.
3. Select the streaming endpoint you want to update from the list of streaming endpoints. The streaming endpoint details page will appear.
4. From this screen you can:
   • Adjust the max cache policy in second by selecting Settings.
   • Scale the streaming units of a streaming endpoint.
   • Change the CDN profile.
   • Get an estimation of the scaling units needed for the streaming endpoint.

CLI

Place the CLI in a waiting state until a condition of the streaming endpoint is met

For more information about this command, see the CLI reference.

REST

Update a streaming endpoint with REST

See the REST API for updating a streaming endpoint.

Python

Update a streaming endpoint with Python

The functions in the Python code snippets assume that you have:

1. Imported the necessary modules. You may not need all of the modules shown here. If the code below doesn't use the module, you can omit it.
2. Created and edited an .env file that contains your authentication values. You can get a sample.env file from the Media Services Python samples.
3. Read and instantiated environment variables by using load_env() as below. Depending on what you are doing, you may or may not need some of the variables.
4. Created a Media Services client as below.

from dotenv import load_dotenv
from azure.identity import DefaultAzureCredential
from azure.mgmt.media import AzureMediaServices
from azure.mgmt.media.models import (StreamingEndpoint, StreamingEntityScaleUnit)
import os

# Get environment variables
load_dotenv()

subscription_id = os.getenv("SUBSCRIPTIONID")
account_name=os.getenv("ACCOUNTNAME")
resource_group_name=os.getenv("RESOURCEGROUP")
client_id = os.getenv("AZURE_CLIENT_ID")
storage_account_name=os.getenv("STORAGEACCOUNTNAME")

# Create the Media Services client and authenticate using the DefaultAzureCredential
default_credential = DefaultAzureCredential()
client = AzureMediaServices(default_credential, subscription_id)

# Get the media services account.
media_account = client.mediaservices.get(resource_group_name, account_name)

# Update the properties of a streaming endpoint.
# For this sample, you are updating the CDN profile to Premium Verizon

streaming_endpoint = StreamingEndpoint(
    location=media_account.location,
    cdn_profile="AzureMediaStreamingPlatformCdnProfile-PremiumVerizon",
    cdn_provider="PremiumVerizon"
)
# From SDK:
# begin_update(resource_group_name: str, account_name: str, streaming_endpoint_name: str, parameters: azure.mgmt.media.models._models_py3.StreamingEndpoint, **kwargs: Any) -> azure.core.polling._poller.LROPoller[azure.mgmt.media.models._models_py3.StreamingEndpoint]
def begin_update_streaming_endpoint(resource_group_name, account_name, streaming_endpoint_name, parameters):
    client.streaming_endpoints.begin_update(resource_group_name, account_name, streaming_endpoint_name, parameters)

begin_update_streaming_endpoint(resource_group_name, account_name, streaming_endpoint_name, parameters=streaming_endpoint)
