Bambuser Docs Application ID
An applicationId is used to authenticate a mobile application through the Bambuser SDK
and authorizes it to broadcast live, upload files and play broadcasts. You can get separate
applicationIds for your Sandbox or Production environment from the
Developer page on the Bambuser site.
applicationIds for the Sandbox environment must only be used during development and testing. Apps
built for actual production use, (for example apps distributed through an app store) must use
applicationIds from the Production environment, which provides guarantees about availability,
storage, concurrent broadcasts and viewers, according to your contract.
Broadcasting
An applicationId with broadcast permission lets your mobile application broadcast to the
Bambuser backend, either to your Sandbox or Production environment.
Android
When using the Bambuser SDK for Android, pass the applicationId to the
Broadcaster()
constructor.
iOS
When using the Bambuser SDK for iOS, set the BambuserView.applicationId property before starting your broadcast.
Uploading
An applicationId with upload permission lets your mobile application upload video and image files
to the Bambuser backend, either to your Sandbox or Production environment.
Android
When using the Bambuser SDK for Android, pass the applicationId to the
BackendApi.getUploadTicketForApplicationId()
helper method.
iOS
When using the Bambuser SDK for iOS, pass the applicationId as shown in the
FileUploader class found in the SDK example code.
Both the Android helper classes and iOS examples do uploading through our public upload REST API, which you can integrate on any platform you want.
Playback
An applicationId with viewing permissions lets your mobile application stream live/archived video
through the Bambuser SDKs for Android and iOS.
Android
When using the Bambuser SDK for Android, pass the applicationId to the
BroadcastPlayer()
constructor.
iOS
When using the Bambuser SDK for iOS, set the BambuserPlayer.applicationId property.
