Extract named entities from video
This endpoint generates named entities for an existing media.
#### How it works
1. Send a `POST` request to this endpoint, replacing `<mediaId>` with the ID of the media for which you want to extract named entities.
2. The response confirms that the update was successful and returns the ID of the media. The job starts immediately upon successfull request.
3. You can use the [video.media.ai.named_entities.ready](https://fastpix.com/docs/webhooks/in-video-ai-events#videomediaainamed_entitiesready) webhook event to track and notify the status.
4. After the webhook event is received, you can use the [Get named entities](#get-named-entities) endpoint to retrieve the extracted named entities.
**Use case**: Use this feature when a user uploads a video or any media and wants to extract named entities.
