class ivsrealtime.Client#

A low-level client representing Amazon Interactive Video Service RealTime (ivsrealtime)

Introduction

The Amazon Interactive Video Service (IVS) stage API is REST compatible, using a standard HTTP API and an AWS EventBridge event stream for responses. JSON is used for both requests and responses, including errors.

Terminology: The IVS stage API sometimes is referred to as the IVS RealTime API.

Resources

The following resources contain information about your IVS live stream (see Getting Started with Amazon IVS):

  • Stage — A stage is a virtual space where multiple participants can exchange audio and video in real time.

Tagging

A tag is a metadata label that you assign to an AWS resource. A tag comprises a key and a value, both set by you. For example, you might set a tag as topic:nature to label a particular video category. See Tagging AWS Resources for more information, including restrictions that apply to tags and “Tag naming limits and requirements”; Amazon IVS stages has no service-specific constraints beyond what is documented there.

Tags can help you identify and organize your AWS resources. For example, you can use the same tag for different resources to indicate that they are related. You can also use tags to manage access (see Access Tags).

The Amazon IVS stage API has these tag-related endpoints: TagResource, UntagResource, and ListTagsForResource. The following resource supports tagging: Stage.

At most 50 tags can be applied to a resource.
