Terminology

Before you get started, here’s a quick introduction to the terminalogy we use at ParOne.

Content Owners

Content Owners are organizations that create and push videos to the ParOne Network to scale the distribution of their videos to apps and websites.

Hosts

Hosts are app and websites organizations that receive content of their choosing and integrate ParOne SDKs and libraries via feeds. This enables apps and websites access to video content increasing utilization and traffic that these hosts would be otherwise unable to obtain.

Videos

Videos are created by Content Owners that contain video and other data that is sent to feeds. These videos are sent as RSS or JSON objects and contain a number of key/value pairs. Each video has a unique content-key which you use when you want to display a video in apps and wesbites. An example JSON output is displayed below:

[
  {
    "content-key": 193748, 
    "categories": [
      "ParOne Tour", 
      "News & Tour News"
    ], 
    "description": "Highlights for the most recent stop of the ParOne Tour .  Check out the team at ParOne as they build something cool.", 
    "end_date": "2021-12-31T00:00:00.000Z", 
    "geo_targets": ["GBR", "USA"], 
    "name": "Highlights of the ParOne Tour",

  }

Feeds

Feeds are collections of videos that apps and websites create to integrate video content their users want. Utilizing ParOne’s UI, feeds can control:

• Desired video categories
• Allowed content publishers
• Allowed sponsors

Each feed has a feed ID which you use when you want to put a video into your site/app. For information on how to create a feed, please see Create a feed.
