Create Analysis

Starts an analysis on a video.

Request

POST /videos/{video_id}/analysis
Parameter Type Required Description
video_id integer Yes Video ID, in the path
fps integer No Legacy body field. Analyses always run at 25 frames per second, so 25 is the only accepted value

The body is optional and {} is the normal request. The video does not have to be available yet: the analysis sits in waiting_for_video until it is, then starts on its own. Run the confirm-sides widget before this call; the analysis workflow guide has the full sequence.

{}

400 when the video is shorter than 10 minutes, when its duration cannot be determined, or when fps is set to anything other than 25:

{ "message": "Length of video has to be more then 10 minutes" }

401 without a valid token, 403 when the caller has no access to the video, 404 when the video does not exist.
