I can get the streaming url by MediaService using AdWords API, but the url cannot be visited.

Hello,

I just follow this example but select all video fields.

And this is one of the video response,
{
    "mediaId": 82052531173,
    "readyToPlayOnTheWeb": true,
    "name": "collect data",
    "creationTime": "20210715 112331 Asia/Taipei",
    "mediaIdSpecified": true,
    "typeSpecified": true,
    "urls": [
        {
            "keySpecified": true,
            "key": 3,
            "value": "https://ytimg.googleusercontent.com/vi/Ov2TZiYiRjQ/default.jpg"
        }
    ],
    "mimeTypeSpecified": false,
    "MediaType": "Video",
    "durationMillis": 39000,
    "referenceId": 4250715690243343924,
    "streamingUrl": "http://youtube.com/get_video?video_id=c&ts=1626406126893&t=2lXQlTSdWtyFIofmFMuyTc7ZgBU&gad=1&source=YouTubeVideoUrl",
    "advertisingId": "",
    "fileSize": 0,
    "youTubeVideoIdString": "Ov2TZiYiRjQ",
    "dimensions": null,
    "industryStandardCommercialIdentifier": "",
    "durationMillisSpecified": true,
    "type": 5,
    "referenceIdSpecified": true,
    "readyToPlayOnTheWebSpecified": true,
    "fileSizeSpecified": true,
    "sourceUrl": ""
}

But the streamingUrl can not be visited.

Thanks,
Weijie

Do you have any progress of the issue? Or can I expect a ETA for your solution?

Hi Weijie,

I work with Matt and let me provide support to your concern.

It appears that you did not receive the reply sent by my colleague. However, so that we can further investigate, could you provide the following details via Reply privately to author?
  • The customer ID and where to find this video in your account so we can take a closer look
  • Complete SOAP request and response logs where we can see the streaming URL that you've mentioned on your initial post

Hi,

I work with Ernie and will assist you. I raised with my team a request for further explanation what the streamingUrl is used for and for better documentation what to do with the youTubeVideoIdString and you may monitor type Video (v201809) for an update. I had sent you an email about this on July 23, in case you missed it I am posting it here. Note that streamingUrl isn't in the new API. If you have a need for streamingUrl which isn't solved yet please get back to us.

Regards,

Yes, I still need the streamingUrl can be played normally, and what do you mean the further explanation what the streamingUrl is used for, is there any limitation? Or can you explain it here first so that I can understand the reason?

Hi Weijie,

Thank you for all the information that you have provided so far.

Before I raise this issue to the rest of our team to further discuss the streamingUrl field, could you provide the complete SOAP request and response logs, and requestId, that my colleague Ernie earlier requested?

If you haven't yet, you can enable logging by going to the Github documentation of your chosen client library. As an example, here is the logging guide for the Java client library.

Once enabled, you may then send the logs of your MediaService.get() request via the Reply privately to author option. If this option is not available, you may send the details directly to our googleadsa...@google.com alias instead.

Best regards,
