Create Asset From URL

with Mux · Media Asset Management
Works with AI assistants

Create an asset from a source URL, wait for ready, and read the ingested input info.

  1. Create a new asset from the supplied source URL with a single playback policy so the asset becomes playable once ready.
  2. Poll the asset until Mux finishes encoding and its status reaches ready.
  3. Read the asset's input-info to confirm the source file details that Mux ingested, such as track types and container.
What you'll need to have ready
  • inputUrl: A publicly accessible URL to the source video file Mux should download and ingest.
  • playbackPolicy: Playback policy applied to the new asset (public or signed).
