Data API Documentation

Getting started

Dailymotion is one of the biggest video platforms in the world, and as such, we offer video storage and viewing capability to our users. We would like to make it easy for you developers to integrate video creation and delivery across many platforms (desktop, mobile, consoles, set-top boxes and more). Our powerful and flexible video APIs are here to help us help you!

Our APIs, what for?

Our developer tools enable you to access both data regarding videos, users, comments, etc. (via the Data API) and to interact with the video player and embed it on your own website or application (via the Player API). At a high level, the range of available API calls covers virtually all facets of Dailymotion. Public data is available with no specific authentication while various parts of the API are available depending on the authenticated status and the permissions the user has granted your application.

Registering

While some basic features are available without authentication, you will need to register yourself as a developer in order to perform more elaborate API calls, authenticate users and act on their behalf.

To start developing with us, it is therefore recommended to register your application and retrieve an API key and secret:

Create a new account or login using your own account on Dailymotion.
Register your application in your channel settings. You will retrieve an API key and an API secret.
You can now start developing your application!

Follow this documentation, try making some calls, read the examples and code samples and make the best out of dailymotion-hosted content!

Tip: use one API key per application/project to separate usages.

Data API overview

Introduction

The Dailymotion Data API is a simple way to access, publish and modify data on Dailymotion. It presents a simple, consistent view of the Dailymotion objects (e.g., users, videos, playlists, etc.) and connections between them (e.g., friend relationship, user's videos, videos in playlists, etc.).

Our API is served over HTTPS, on the following endpoint:

https://api.dailymotion.com

Graph object

Every object in the Dailymotion Data API has a unique identifier (within its class of object). You can access fields of every object by requesting /<OBJECT_CLASS>/<OBJECT_ID>, where <OBJECT_CLASS> can be video, user, playlist, etc. Here are some examples of object URLs:

A user: https://api.dailymotion.com/user/x1fz4ii
A video: https://api.dailymotion.com/video/x26ezrb
A playlist: https://api.dailymotion.com/playlist/x3ecgj

Connection

All of the objects in the Dailymotion Data API are connected to each other via relationships: users own playlists, playlists own videos, videos own comments, etc. In a Graph API, these relationships are called connections. You can explore the connections between objects using the URL structure /<OBJECT_CLASS>/<OBJECT_ID>/<CONNECTED_OBJECT>. Here are some examples of supported connections:

A video's comments: https://api.dailymotion.com/video/x26ezrb/comments
A list of videos in the music channel: https://api.dailymotion.com/channel/music/videos
A user's videos: https://api.dailymotion.com/user/x1fz4ii/videos

The complete Data API reference lists all the different objects and connections we support.

Response types

All responses are sent back to you in JSON, which is a lightweight data-interchange format. We return two kinds of structure: item and list.

Items

Items are JSON objects consisting of unordered attribute–value pairs, with a single level of pairs. They are delimited by curly brackets. This kind of response is used when a single object is requested. The properties are the requested field names and their corresponding values. By default, only a certain number of fields are returned, but you can define which fields you want to be returned. See the fields selection section for more details.

{
    "id": "x26ezrb",
    "title": "Hackathon BeMyApp/Dailymotion",
    "channel": "creation",
    "owner": "x1fz4ii"
}

Lists

The list response type is a JSON object containing a list property. The associated value is a JSON array of items. Some other properties are also returned such as:

Response properties	Property type	Property description
`page`	`number`	The current requested page number, by default page `1` is returned. You can pass the `page` parameter to request other pages (maximum page number is 100).
`limit`	`number`	The current maximum number of items per response page. You can change this limit using the `limit` parameter (maximum number of items per page is 100).
`explicit`	`boolean`	This boolean property tells you if there is at least one result that was flagged as explicit in the list. See the `family_filter` global parameter for more information about how to prevent or allow this behavior.
`total`	`number`	This property defines the total number of items in the result set. It is not always present and may return an approximate number. Do not trust this value to compute pagination as you may not be able to get the real number of pages this value implies. Always prefer the `has_more` value to know if there is a next page.
`has_more`	`boolean`	This boolean property tells you if there are more pages after the current one. If it is set to true, you can decide to access more results, hence this is helpful when paginating through results. This can also help you decide if you need show a more button in your UI.

{
    "page": 1,
    "limit": 10,
    "has_more": true,
    "list": [
        {"id": "xf2pow", "title": "Tony Bennett plans Winehouse"},
        {"id": "xf2v32", "title": "Escape From City 17"},
        {"id": "xemyk2", "title": "Portal : No Escape"},
        {"id": "xf35xa", "title": "Earthquake Ignites Social Media Frenzy"},
        {"id": "xf02xp", "title": "Triple Kiss! - The Worst Generation #3"},
        {"id": "xf38x0", "title": "Billion Points Finalists"},
        {"id": "xettt9", "title": "The Best of Gamescom 11"},
        {"id": "xf3cxr", "title": "Review: If Only It Was \"30 Minutes or Less\""},
        {"id": "xf3ix6", "title": "Cold War Kids - Cold Toes On The Cold Floor"},
        {"id": "xf3jaa", "title": "Matthew Morrison Tour Rehearsal"}
    ]
}

Performing a call

You can perform different requests on https://api.dailymotion.com in order to interact with data on our platform. Some requests are public (accessing a public video's title and description), some others will require a specific permission (accessing private videos, adding a comment on a video, etc.).

For a full list of writable fields and connections and their supported parameters, please refer to the Data API reference.

GET

A GET request allows you to retrieve data about an object. For instance, getting information about a user is done using a GET request such as https://api.dailymotion.com/user/x1fz4ii.

POST

Some fields are writable. You can edit these via the Dailymotion Data API by issuing an HTTP POST request to the appropriate URL (see the Data API Reference). For example, you can edit the title of a video by posting to /video/<VIDEO_ID>:

curl -H 'Authorization: Bearer <ACCESS_TOKEN>' \
     -F 'title=My New Title' \
     https://api.dailymotion.com/video/<VIDEO_ID>

You can add a comment on the video by posting to /video/<VIDEO_ID>/comments:

curl -H 'Authorization: Bearer <ACCESS_TOKEN>' \
     -F 'message=My comment text' \
     https://api.dailymotion.com/video/<VIDEO_ID>/comments

Since only the owner of an object can write fields and some fields may require extended permissions or scopes granted by the user, write operations require to pass an access token. See the authentication guide for details on how you can request a token and extended permissions from the user during the authentication step.

DELETE

You can delete an object by issuing an HTTP DELETE request to the object URLs, for example:

curl -X DELETE \
     -H 'Authorization: Bearer <ACCESS_TOKEN>' \
     https://api.dailymotion.com/video/<VIDEO_ID>

To work with clients that do not support all of the HTTP methods (like JavaScript clients), you can alternatively issue a GET request to an object URL with the additional parameter method=delete to override the HTTP method. For example, you can delete a comment by issuing a GET request to /comment/<COMMENT_ID>?method=delete.

Fields selection

All objects are composed of fields. They all have an identifier id (unique in the given class of objects) plus some other fields defined in the Data API Reference. Some fields are publicly readable, some other are not and need the user to be authenticated and may require extended permissions granted by the user.

By default, a few fields are returned. To request more specific fields, use the fields parameter with the list of fields you need in the response. We are urging you to always use fields to only request the fields you will use in your application. For instance, to select the id and the title fields of a video object, perform a GET request to /video/<VIDEO_ID>?fields=id,title.

Let's call https://api.dailymotion.com/video/x26ezj5?fields=id,title. The response will be like this:

{
    "id": "x26ezj5",
    "title": "Greetings"
}

If a field is supposed to return a connected object, selecting the field will return the connected object id. In such case you can request any sub-field of this connected object by concatenating the sub-field name to the field, separated by a dot. For instance, the owner field of the video object returns a user object. If you need the screenname and the url of the video owner, you can perform the following request: https://api.dailymotion.com/video/x26ezj5?fields=id,title,owner,owner.screenname,owner.url. The response will look like this:

{
    "id": "x26ezj5",
    "title": "Greetings",
    "owner": "x1fz4ii",
    "owner.screenname": "Dailymotion API",
    "owner.url": "http://www.dailymotion.com/DailymotionAPI"
}

Note: This also works for lists of objects and connections.

Filtering

When searching for a list of objects, some fields can be used for filtering. Those filters are listed in the API reference, under the filters section of every object (see the filters available for the video object for example). To filter, perform a GET request and put your filters as parameters of the query string. For instance, the following request /videos?channel=tech&language=en will list all English-speaking videos in the 'technology' channel.

Just like a field, a filter declares a data type and only takes specific values in input. When a filter is marked as a flag though, it means that it doesn't take any specific value, its presence in the query string is the only thing that matters. Please see the flag type description for more information.

When the response to your call is a list of objects, you can also sort the list by using the sort filter with any of the available values listed in the API reference.

Caching

The REST API uses HTTP cache control mechanisms. If you want to benefit from caching, you have to make sure URLs don't change between requests. To that end, you should always sort query string parameters by alphabetic order and send the access token using the Authorization HTTP header as follow:

curl -H 'Authorization: OAuth <ACCESS_TOKEN>' \
     https://api.dailymotion.com/videos

Since requests are sent over SSL, your requests' responses cannot be stored on public intermediate proxy cache servers. However, if your application can potentially share the cache between different users, you have to be sure you only share responses marked as public in the Cache-Control HTTP header. This should be done automatically by your HTTP library if it respects the Vary HTTP header sent with private cacheable responses though.

More about requests!

Our API Explorer will also let you test possible calls through its simple interface.

Learn how to authenticate in the authentication section, so you can perform elaborate calls and interact with your user's videos.

If you want to test the availablility of the API, the /echo endpoint is just want you're looking for! Check the documentation on the /echo endpoint.

Error codes

Receiving error codes

The following is an an example of a common error response, resulting from a failed API Call. Errors contains a status code, a message and an error type.

curl "https://api.dailymotion.com/video/xnotfound"

HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found
{
    "error": {
        "code": 404, 
        "message": "This video does not exist or has been deleted.", 
        "type": "not_found"
    }
}

HTTP Status Code

The Dailymotion Data API uses conventional HTTP response codes to indicate success or failure of an API request. In general, codes in the 2xx range indicate success, codes in the 4xx range indicate an error resulting from invalid provided information (e.g. a required parameter is missing, invalid access token, etc.), and codes in the 5xx range indicate an error with the Dailymotion servers. Hence, we are using the following match for error codes:

Classic HTTP errors	Corresponding Dailymotion errors
`400` `Bad Request`	The API call requires authentication but it was not presented or was wholly invalid, or the API call was invalid (`invalid_parameter`, `missing_required_parameter`).
`401` `Unauthorized`	A valid access token should be provided. This error may come from an expired access token.
`403` `Forbidden`	The request is understood, but it has been refused or access is not allowed. An accompanying error message will explain why. This code is used when requests are being denied due to spam activity, or the request requires higher privileges than provided by the access token.
`404` `Not Found`	The requested object was not found (can also be thrown when you request non active users, censored videos, etc.).
`405` `Method Not Allowed`	Invalid HTTP Method + `method_not_allowed` error type.
`501` `Not Implemented`	The specified method does not exist (`invalid_method`).
`500` `Internal Server Error`	This API error covers any other type of problem (e.g.: a temporary problem with the Dailymotion servers) and should turn up only very infrequently. Check the associated message for more information.

Error types

Here's a list of error types you may encounter in errors returned by the API:

Error types	Type descriptions
`invalid_parameter`	Your request contains invalid parameters (e.g. you set an invalid data type for a field).
`missing_required_parameter`	You forgot a required parameter in your API call.
`access_forbidden`	Thrown when the user doesn't have the permission to access the data (e.g. missing a required scope to access certain fields).
`not_found`	The requested object was not found.
`method_not_allowed`	The API call is correct, but the method is not allowed (e.g.: replace a video URL before encoding process is over).
`invalid_method`	The API endpoint or object connection is invalid.
`write_failure`	The data you tried to set using the API could not be saved, this is generally a temporary error that will resolve itself over time.

Note: This is not an exhaustive list, only the most common ones are listed here.

Video access error

When requesting access to a video, the API may return a message explaining why the access can't be granted inside the specific access_error field. Here is a list of the different access error codes you may encounter and their descriptions:

Error code	Error description
`DM001`	No video has been specified, you need to specify one.
`DM002`	Content has been deleted.
`DM003`	Live content is not available, i.e. it may not have started yet.
`DM004`	Copyrighted content, access forbidden.
`DM005`	Content rejected (this video may have been removed due to a breach of the terms of use, a copyright claim or an infringement upon third party rights).
`DM006`	Publishing in progress...
`DM007`	Video geo-restricted by its owner.
`DM008`	Explicit content.
`DM009`	Explicit content (offsite embed).
`DM010`	Private content.
`DM011`	An encoding error occured.
`DM012`	Encoding in progress...
`DM013`	This video has no preset (no video stream).
`DM014`	This video has not been made available on your device by its owner.
`DM015`	Kids host error.
`DM016`	Content not available on this website, it can only be watched on Dailymotion.

Guidelines

API rate limits

We enforce some quotas on the Data API calls. For the time being, all stream_*_url fields are rate-limited to 50 calls per day per API key.

Video upload through the API is also limited to:

	Standard accounts limits	Verified partners limits
Per video	1 Hour and 2Gb	No limit
Per 24h	10 Videos and 2 Hours	96 videos* and unlimited duration

*If you need to boost this limit for a specific use case, please get in touch with your dailymotion content manager.

To check your current limits at the video level, you can request the limits field on your own user using the API, like this: /me?fields=limits (you will need to be authenticated).

Input/output types

Each graph object field and filter has its own data type, here are the different types available in the API. Please note that any of these can return either their advertised type or a null value if they have no associated data.

`string`

A simple sequence of UTF-8 characters. Please URL encode all input strings (RFCs 3986 and 1738).

"123"
"aerft438j"
"Simple sequence of UTF-8 characters."
/video/x26ezrb?title=A+string+for+a+new+title
/video/x26ezrb?title=A%20string%20for%20a%20new%20title

`number`

Any number, can be integer or floating point. Please use the international notation with a dot between the integer and decimal parts.

0
4
2.95
/video/x26ezrb?rental_start_time=3.5

`boolean`

A truth value. For input values, 0, "false" and "no" all resolve to false and 1, "true" and "yes" all resolve to true.

true
false
/user/x1fz4ii?email_notification=1
/user/x1fz4ii?email_notification=false

`date`

A date expressed as a UNIX timestamp (number of seconds since the UNIX Epoch).

0
1287507036
2147483647
/user/x1fz4ii?birthday=532701000

`array`

An unordered collection of any other scalar data type (most likely strings or numbers). Elements are listed between square brackets and separated by commas. For inputting arrays, simply separate every element with commas.

[]
[1,2,3]
["ld","sd","hq","hd720"]
/video/x26ezrb?tags=elements,separated,with,commas
/video/x26ezrb?tags=elements%2Cseparated%2Cwith%2Ccommas

`dict`

A dict is a flat single level deep map that associates various type of values to keys.

{}
{1:"January",2:"February",3:"March"}
{"video_duration":3600,"video_size":2147483648}

`url`

Any URL, it isn't implied that the URL actually resolves to any resource.

http://www.dailymotion.com/videos
https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x26ezrb_hackathon-bemyapp-dailymotion_creation
/video/x26ezrb?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.dailymotion.com%2Fvideo%2Fx26ezrb

`email`

An email address, it isn't implied that the address actually resolves to any inbox.

user@example.org
example+value@email.com
/user/x1fz4ii?email=user%40example.org

`object`

Any other Data API object, which means that the returned value will be an identifier and that you can retrieve sub-fields of the corresponding object using the dot-notation. For inputting object values, simply provide the identifier of the object.

user
video
/user/x1fz4ii?videostar=x26ezrb

`flag`

Flag is a special type reserved for simple boolean filters. When a filter is marked as a flag, it means that it doesn't take any specific value, its presence in the query string is the only thing that matters. You can still attach a value to them in your query string, but it won't have any effect and will be discarded. Here are the three different ways of using them:

/videos?flags=featured,hd,no_live (recommended)
/videos?featured&hd&no_live
/videos?featured=true&hd=true&no_live=true (not recommended)

Encoding

We strongly recommend the use of UTF-8 encoding for all interactions with the API.

Authentication

By default, your application can only access public API data like public video title, description, etc. In order to interact with someone's Dailymotion account, this user has to authorize your application. The Dailymotion Data API uses the OAuth 2.0 protocol for managing authentication and authorization flows between the API and third-party applications.

OAuth 2.0

For accessing and/or manipulating protected resources (such as private user data), the client application (your application) needs to be granted permission to do so. The OAuth 2.0 standard defines a protocol that allows such third-party authorization through the use of access tokens. Access tokens are central in the protocol: those tokens, in the form of strings, are delivered by an authorization server (at Dailymotion) and they enable the client application to securely access protected data on behalf of the resource owner (the end-user).

OAuth 2.0 actor	Your scenario when using the Dailymotion API
client application	Your application/website/project
resource owner	Any Dailymotion user
resource server	The Dailymotion API endpoint (`https://api.dailymotion.com`)
authorization server	The Dailymotion authorization endpoint (`https://www.dailymotion.com/oauth/authorize`)

Hence, there is a series of back-and-forth exchanges between the client application, the resource owner and the authorization server in order to create an access token, which will be forwarded every time you perform requests to the resource server. The typical exchange is as follows:

The client application asks the resource owner for authorization and receives an authorization grant.
The client application then authenticate itself to the authorization server (by forwarding this authorization grant) in order to obtain an access token. These two steps are described in the retrieving an access token section.
Lastly, the client application uses this access token to request resources to the resource server. Read the using an access token section for more details on how to use the access token when performing an API request.

With no scope provided, your application will only be able to interact with public data such as searching for a public video or requesting comments on a video. If your application needs to read private data or change some user's associated data (post a comment on behalf of someone, modify someone else's video title, etc), your application can request a larger permission scope. How to request extended permissions is described in the Extended Permissions section.

For more in depth information about the OAuth 2.0 protocol and specifications, please refer to the Request For Comments (RFC) #6749.

Retrieving an access token

A typical scenario when using the Dailymotion API is that of an application managing someone's videos and acting on his/her behalf.

For this, three canonical types of grant types exist (given by resource owner to client application, depending on the scenario and technology used):

Authorization code: the authorization server acts as intermediary between the resource owner and the client application. The resource owner is directly authenticated and asked for authorization by the authorization server, before the authorization code is returned to the client application. For this usage, use the authorization_code grant type.
Resource owner password credentials: the client application asks the user for his/her credentials (login and password) and pass them directly to the authorization server to retrieve an access token. The credentials should only be used when there is a high degree of trust between the resource owner and the client application (e.g., the client application is part of the device operating system or a highly privileged application), and when other authorization grant types are not available (such as an authorization code). Because the application has the responsibility to ask the user for his/her credentials, you have to make sure your API secret remains a secret. For this usage, use the password grant type.
Client credentials: authorization is managed using client credentials (application credendials, no authenticated user), for example for publicly available resources in Dailymotion (seldom used). This is enough if you don't need to access the Dailymotion API on behalf of another user. For this usage, use the client_credentials grant type.

Client profiles

For this purpose, there are two main profiles:

Web applications
Native applications

Web application profile

The web application profile is suitable for client applications capable of interacting with the end-user's user-agent (typically a web browser) and capable of receiving incoming requests from the authorization server (capable of acting as an HTTP server).

The steps to obtain an access token are:

Once your application has been registered, you get an API key, which we will call your client_id and an API secret, which is your client_secret.
Redirect the user to https://www.dailymotion.com/oauth/authorize with your client_id and the URL the user should be redirected back to after the authorization process (the redirect_uri). For security reason, only redirect_uri starting with the callback URL provided when you created your API key will be accepted (line breaks are for display purposes only):
```
https://www.dailymotion.com/oauth/authorize
    ?response_type=code
    &client_id=<API_KEY>
    &redirect_uri=http://www.example.org/callback
```
If your redirect_uri has to contain a dynamic part, you can use a slug this way when you specify your application callback URL: http://www.example.org/callback/[<SLUGNAME>]. The <SLUGNAME> part becomes the dynamic part.
If the user authorizes your application, Dailymotion redirects the user back to the redirect_uri you specified with a verification string in the code query parameter. This authorization code can then be exchanged for an OAuth access token by POST-ing to the token server at https://api.dailymotion.com/oauth/token. Pass the exact same redirect_uri as in the previous step (line breaks are for display purposes only):
```
POST /oauth/token HTTP/1.1
Host: api.dailymotion.com
Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded

grant_type=authorization_code
    &client_id=<API_KEY>
    &client_secret=<API_SECRET>
    &redirect_uri=http://www.example.org/callback
    &code=<AUTHORIZATION_CODE>
```
In return, you will retrieve the following JSON response:
```
{
    "access_token": "<ACCESS_TOKEN>",
    "expires_in": 36000,
    "refresh_token": "<REFRESH_TOKEN>"
}
```
You can then use the access_token from the response to make requests on behalf of this user. Read the using an access token section for more details.

Note: If the user does not authorize your application, Dailymotion redirects the user to the redirect_uri you specified, and adds both error and error_description parameters to the query.

Note: The access token is valid for the given number of seconds defined by the expires_in parameter of the token server response. You can use the obtained refresh_token to request another access token without the need to ask anything to the user again. See the requesting an access token from a refresh token section for more details.

Note: We strongly advise you to use one of the official Dailymotion SDKs that abstract all of these exchanges for you and make this process easier.

State parameter (optional)

The web application profile supports the optional state parameter that allows you to mitigate CSRF attacks and/or to restore your application’s previous state. The state parameter preserves a state object set by the client and makes it available in the client response.

Mitigate CSRF attacks: The state parameter can be used to send a random value during the authentication redirection. Then the received value has to be validated after processing the response. To perform the validation, the state value has to be stored on the client application side and match with the state parameter received in the response.

Warning! If it doesn't, you may be the target of an attack and should immediately stop the authentication process.

Redirect users: The state parameter can also be used to redirect the user to the protected page he intends to access after the authentication process.

Start by generating a unique key that will use to protect you against CSRF attacks.

Store this key on user side and use it to store the targeted URL, as below:

{
        "<UNIQUE_KEY_ID>": {
            "redirectUrl": "/protectedResource",
            "expiresOn": "13456789"
        }
}

Get the Authorization by sending your unique key to Dailymotion (line breaks are for display purposes only):

POST /oauth/authorize HTTP/1.1
Host: api.dailymotion.com
Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded

response_type=code
    &client_id=<API_KEY>
    &redirect_uri=http://www.example.org/callback
    &state=<UNIQUE_KEY_ID>

Retrieve the returned state value and compare it with the one you stored earlier. If the values match, then approve the authentication response and retrieve the rest of the application state (like the redirectUrl), else deny it.

Note: The way you store the unique key and the URL depends on your application's type. It can be local storage in single-page, native apps or a cookie in a regular web application.

Warning! The state parameter doesn't guarantee the response or the request integrity. Keep in mind that they could be manipulated by malicious users.

Native application profile

Native client applications are running as native code on the end-user's computer or device (i.e. executing outside a user-agent or as a desktop program). These client applications are often capable of interacting with (or embedding) the end-user's user-agent but are limited in how such interaction affects their end-user experience. In many cases, native applications are incapable of receiving direct callback requests from the server (e.g. firewall, operating system restrictions, etc.).

Native client applications can prompt the end-user for their password credentials and use them directly to obtain an access token. This method is discouraged since users will have to communicate their credentials directly to your client application. Additionally, users who created their account using their Facebook, Google or other third-party accounts won't be able to log-in into your application using this authentication method. Please note that if you have no other choice but to use this method, you are not allowed to store the end-user credentials you obtained.

The steps to obtain an access token using the end-user credentials are:

Once your application has been registered, you get an API key, which we will call your client_id and an API secret, which is your client_secret.
Ask the end-user for his credentials which consist of a username and a password.

Retrieve an OAuth access token by POST-ing to the token server at https://api.dailymotion.com/oauth/token. Set the grant_type to password, pass the client_id and client_secret (related to your application) and the user credentials in username and password (line breaks are for display purposes only):

POST /oauth/token HTTP/1.1
Host: api.dailymotion.com
Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded

grant_type=password
    &client_id=<API_KEY>
    &client_secret=<API_SECRET>
    &username=<USER_USERNAME>
    &password=<USER_PASSWORD>

In return, you will get the following JSON response:

{
    "access_token": "<ACCESS_TOKEN>",
    "expires_in": 36000,
    "refresh_token": "<REFRESH_TOKEN>"
}

Use the access token returned by the request above to make requests on behalf of the user. Read the using an access token section for more details.

Note: Your access token will remain valid for the time defined by the expires_in parameter. We recommend using your access token until its end of validity, failing which you may run into a rate limiting issue. You can use the obtained refresh_token to request another access token without the need to ask anything to the user again. See the requesting an access token from a refresh token section for more details.

Note: We strongly advise you to use one of the official Dailymotion SDKs that abstract all of these exchanges for you and make this process easier.

Refreshing a token

Some authorization methods provide you with a refresh token in addition to the access token. The access token validity is always limited in time indicated by the expires_in property of the token server response or by a 401 HTTP status code error when used with the API (see the Request For Comments (RFC) #6749 for more in depth information).

Once an access token has expired, you can request another access token without the need to repeatedly ask anything to the end-user, but only if you are in possession of a refresh token. To do that, send the following request to the token server at https://api.dailymotion.com/oauth/token (line breaks are for display purposes only):

POST /oauth/token HTTP/1.1
Host: api.dailymotion.com
Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded

grant_type=refresh_token
    &client_id=<API_KEY>
    &client_secret=<API_SECRET>
    &refresh_token=<REFRESH_TOKEN>

In return you will get the following JSON response:

{
    "access_token": "<ACCESS_TOKEN>",
    "expires_in": 36000,
    "refresh_token": "<REFRESH_TOKEN>"
}

In case of error, the JSON object will contain both an error and error_description properties. See the Request For Comments (RFC) #6749 for more details.

Note: We strongly advise you to use one of the official Dailymotion SDKs that abstract all of these exchanges for you and make this process easier.

Note: One of the problems with OAuth 2 is that the specification doesn't offer any mechanism to upgrade the scope of an existing session on refresh. See the extended permissions section for more information.

Extended permissions

In the above examples, the OAuth process will authenticate your application with the Dailymotion user, which will allow you to fetch general information about the user's profile via the Dailymotion API /me endpoint. As mentioned above, if you need to fetch private data associated to the user or you want to request permission to publish content on a user's behalf, you will need to request extended permissions.

To request extended permissions via OAuth 2.0, use the scope parameter in your authorization request, and include a white-space-separated list of all the permissions you want to request. For example this authorization request asks for personal information and full video control (line breaks are for display purposes only):

https://www.dailymotion.com/oauth/authorize
    ?response_type=code
    &client_id=<API_KEY>
    &redirect_uri=http://www.example.org/callback
    &scope=userinfo+manage_videos

Note: One of the problems with OAuth 2 is that the specification doesn't offer any mechanism to upgrade the scope of an existing session. To add new scopes to an already existing session, you first need to call the /logout endpoint and start a new session with your new list of scopes.

Here are a few of the extended permissions available:

Scope	Description
`email`	Provides access to the user's primary email address.
`userinfo`	Provides read/write access to some personal user information like address and birthday.
`manage_videos`	Allows to modify or delete the user's uploaded videos and to publish new ones.
`manage_comments`	Allows to publish comments on videos on behalf of the user.
`manage_players`	(beta) Allows create/modify/delete player objects on behalf of user
`manage_playlists`	Allows to create/edit/delete playlists on behalf of the user.
`manage_tiles`	Allows to read/write a user's saved tiles.
`manage_subscriptions`	Allows to manage a user's subscriptions.
`manage_friends`	Allows to manage a user's friends.
`manage_likes`	Allows to add/remove videos from the list of user's liked video ("likes").

There is more to it. Refer yourself to the full Data API reference for a complete list of the information your can access and the permissions needed to request them.

Revoking authorization

Your application should always allow users to revoke authorization granted to your API key. The user can also revoke your application from his profile on Dailymotion, but it's far less user-friendly than having a simple Logout from Dailymotion button in your interface.

To revoke authorization, perform a GET request to the /logout URI with the Authorization header (or access_token query parameter). Read the using an access token section for more details. Once done, your current session (access token and/or refresh token) are no longer valid and you can forget about them in your application.

Form factors

Dailymotion supports a non-standard display parameter to trigger different form factors for the authorization dialog that may be more appropriate for your application:

Parameter value	Feature description
`page`	Displays a full-page authorization screen (by default).
`popup`	Displays a compact dialog optimized for web pop-up windows.
`mobile`	Displays an iPhone/Android/smartphone-optimized version of the dialog (deprecated).

For example, to trigger the dialog in a pop-up window, you would redirect the user to (line breaks are for display purposes only):

https://www.dailymotion.com/oauth/authorize
    ?response_type=code
    &client_id=<API_KEY>
    &redirect_uri=http://www.example.org/callback
    &display=popup

Note: Even if you chose page or popup from a known mobile device, the mobile display will be chosen automatically.

Using an access token

At high level, using OAuth 2.0 entails getting an access token for a Dailymotion user via a redirect to Dailymotion. After you obtain the access token, you can perform authorized requests on behalf of this user by including it in all of your API requests using the Authorization HTTP header:

GET /videos HTTP/1.1
Host: api.dailymotion.com
Authorization: Bearer <ACCESS_TOKEN>

You can also provide the access token directly as a query parameter, but this method is not recommended because it's unsafe and incompatible with some other API entry points (like the Advanced API):

https://api.dailymotion.com/videos?access_token=<ACCESS_TOKEN>

Once authenticated on the API, you can use the special identifier /me which refers to the currently authenticated user (alias of /user/<USER_ID>). So the URL https://api.dailymotion.com/me/videos returns the same thing as https://api.dailymotion.com/user/<USER_ID>/videos.

Checking an access token

If you want to retrieve information on your access token, you can perform a GET request of /auth. This request returns diverse information on the user authentified in your application: id, username, screename, extended permissions accepted, roles granted the application through which the token was created.

{
  "id": "x1fz4ii",
  "scope": [
    "manage_comments",
    "manage_videos",
    "userinfo"
  ],
  "roles": [],
  "username": "DailymotionAPI",
  "screenname": "Dailymotion API"
}

Data API reference

Here is a list of the various graph objects available through the Dailymotion Data API. Some of them will only be available for reading, and some others for creation and edition too.

Object name	Short description
channel	A `channel` object represents a category of videos on Dailymotion (formerly a channel), for example: `shortfilms`, `videogames`, `news`, etc.
player	A `player` object holds several configuration properties (Picture In Picture settings, aspect ratio...) and is meant to be embedded on a webpage with a script tag.
playlist	A `playlist` object represents an ordered list of videos created by a user. Videos in a playlist do not necessarily have anything in common.
subtitle	A `subtitle` object represents a file resource containing closed captioning for a given video.
user	A `user` object represents a Dailymotion user account. Users are at the foundation of every other graph objects, since most of them are created through —or owned by— users. Users also represent the main authentication vector to Dailymotion services.
video	The `video` object is the foundation of Dailymotion' service. Videos are metadata containers wrapped around media streams and can be accessed either directly or through several connections through the Data API.

Global API Parameters

The following query-string parameters are valid on the whole API and can be provided along with any type of request. Some of them are strongly recommended if you want to enhance your end-user experience. To use a global parameter, simply add it to any request's query-string like so:
/video/x26m1j4/comments?family_filter=false&localization=it

Type	Name	Description
STRING	ams_country	Change the country for the asset management. By default, the country is auto-detected based on the IP address of the API consumer. Changing this value will filter out content geo-blocked for the defined country and will affect the geo-blocking mechanism.
STRING	context	Additional call context for this request. Some resources of the API require that you provide contextual information along with your request in order to return relevant data. This is especially useful when the API cannot retrieve or guess this additional information by itself. Contextual information should only be provided when expressly needed by the resource you are trying to query. Values should be passed as an embedded and URL encoded query string, for example: `?field=data&context=key1%3Dvalue1%26key2%3Dvalue2`
STRING	device_filter	Filter out content and change media assets. By default, the device is auto-detected based on the user-agent of the API consumer. Valid values are `detect`, `web`, `mobile` and `iptv`. Changing this value will filter out content not allowed on the defined device.
BOOLEAN	family_filter	Enable/disable the family filter. By default, the family filter is turned on. Setting this parameter to `false` will stop filtering-out explicit content from searches and global contexts. You should always check the result's `explicit` field when applicable as some contexts may still return those contents. You should also flag them in your UI to warn the user about the nature of the content.
STRING	localization	Change the default localization of the user. This will affect results language and content selection. Note that changing the localization won't give access to geoblocked content of the corresponding location. The IP address of the API consumer is always used for this kind of restriction. You can use a standard locale like `fr_FR`, `en_US` (or simply `en`, `it`) but you can also provide `detect` to tell the API to detect the most probable locale based on the consumer's location.
BOOLEAN	ssl_assets	Get secured HTTPS URLs for all assets (URLs, images, videos, etc.). By default, this option is turned on. (Deprecated 25/03/2019 +6 month)
STRING	thumbnail_ratio	Change the size ratio for all video thumbnails. By default, this option is set to `original`. Accepted values are `original`, `widescreen` and `square`.

List of videos contained in this playlist (in the order defined by its owner).
This connection joins an object of type playlist with a list of video objects.

Read the playlist's videos connection
You can retrieve the list of videos connected to a playlist object by issuing a GET request to /playlist/<PLAYLIST_ID>/videos. You can specify the list of fields from the video objects to be returned using the fields parameter.
Test it with the API Explorer.
You can also see if any video is connected to an existing playlist object by issuing a GET request to /playlist/<PLAYLIST_ID>/videos/<VIDEO_ID>. This will return a list containing only the connected video object or an empty list if it is not connected.
Create a playlist's videos connection
You can connect videos to an existing playlist object one by one by issuing multiple POST requests to /playlist/<PLAYLIST_ID>/videos/<VIDEO_ID>.
You can connect multiple videos to an existing playlist object at once by issuing one POST request to /playlist/<PLAYLIST_ID>/videos?ids=<VIDEO_ID>,...,<VIDEO_ID>. Note that the order of the identifiers is saved.
Delete a playlist's videos connection
You can disconnect videos from a playlist object by issuing DELETE requests to /playlist/<PLAYLIST_ID>/videos/<VIDEO_ID>. You can also disconnect all videos at once by issuing a POST request to /playlist/<PLAYLIST_ID>/videos with an empty ids query-string parameter.

DICT log_view_urls A one time usage list of URLs that will be called in order to log video view events. The format of the dict is a key containing the label of the log URL + some directive on when to call it and the URL as value. If the app encounters a key format it doesn't understand, it should skip it with a console warning. The format of the key is as follows: <label>(@<rule>)? The label value is a alphanumeric string : [A-Za-z0-9]+ If no @ followed by rules is present, it means the URL has to be called as soon as the video starts (equivalent to label@0). When the "mode" field of the video object is "live" and any '%' character is found in the rules, the key should be skipped with a console warning. The rule format is as follows: <delay>([,|]<delay>)*(/<recurrence>)? The delay value can contain time spent in seconds (## or ##s) or minutes (##m), or in percentage of video duration (##%). Delays can be separated by comas (all delays apply) or pipes (first match win, others are ignored). It is not allowed to mix comas and pipes in the same rule. If not specified, default delay should be considered as "0s". The recurrence value can contain time spent in seconds (## or ##s) or minutes (##m), or in percentage of video duration (##%). The first recurrent trigger must occur after all the relevant delays have been triggered. It means that delay condition(s) (if valid) have total priority over the recurrence condition (see examples below). Here are examples of valid keys: logview : triggered as soon as the video starts. liked@50%|10m : triggered when the user has spent the equivalent of 50% of the total video duration (time spent by the user = <video duration in seconds> * 0.5) or watched 10 minutes of the video (first match win) ads@10s,639s : triggered when reaching 10 seconds AND 639 seconds of playback (all delays apply) progress@10s/30s : triggered when reaching 10 seconds, and then each time the user watch 30 seconds of the video progress@10s/10% : triggered when reaching 10 seconds, and then each time the user watch the equivalent of 10% of the total video duration (<video duration in seconds> * 0.1) progress@/20% : triggered as soon as the video starts, and then each time the user watch the equivalent of 20% of the total video duration (<video duration in seconds> * 0.2) The URL may contain markers that must be replaced by the client: %session% marker is replaced by a generated UDID stored on the client to identify the users session over several requests. If the app can't store such id, the URL must be ignored. %time% marker is replaced by an integer value containing the total time spent in seconds by the client since he has started the video (it is NOT the number of seconds of the player playback position). For example, if the user watch 10 seconds of the video, then seek to 70% of the video and watch 5 additional seconds then stop, %time% is equal to 15 (seconds). %position% marker is replaced by a float value between 0 and 1 (decimal separator is a point and not a coma and with at least 3 decimals) containing the current position of the player playback in percentage (it may be possible that multiple events are sent with the same position value within a single video view, when a seek occured). When the "mode" field is "live", this value should always be replaced by 0.
