start_composition#

ivsrealtime.Client.start_composition(**kwargs)#

Starts a Composition from a stage based on the configuration provided in the request.

A Composition is an ephemeral resource that exists after this endpoint returns successfully. Composition stops and the resource is deleted:

When StopComposition is called.
After a 1-minute timeout, when all participants are disconnected from the stage.
After a 1-minute timeout, if there are no participants in the stage when StartComposition is called.
When broadcasting to the IVS channel fails and all retries are exhausted.
When broadcasting is disconnected and all attempts to reconnect are exhausted.

[REQUIRED]

ARN of the stage to be used for compositing.
