Remove a simulcast target from a channel

This endpoint stops a Cloud Playout channel being restreamed to one third-party platform. The channel’s own playback and its other simulcast targets are unaffected.

How it works

  1. Make a DELETE request to this endpoint with the livestreamId and the simulcastId, both of which you can get from the get a channel’s simulcast targets endpoint.

  2. The response confirms the removal.

Example

A broadcaster stops restreaming to a platform once a rights window for that platform has ended.
