Video Download API
Use Case

Legal & Compliance

Legal and compliance teams need to capture and preserve video evidence before it disappears. Our API provides reliable video downloads with full metadata extraction, enabling you to document infringement, preserve evidence, and maintain audit trails. Built-in timestamp and hash support ensures chain of custody integrity for legal proceedings.

Example Implementation

Production-ready TypeScript code with secure webhook integration

1const API_BASE = 'https://api.endpoint-hidden-contact-us.com/api/v1';
2const API_KEY = process.env.VIDEO_API_KEY;
3const crypto = require('crypto');

5interface EvidenceRequest {
6 url: string;
7 caseId: string;
8 reason: string;
9 requestedBy: string;
10}
11
12async function preserveEvidence(request: EvidenceRequest) {
13 const captureTime = new Date().toISOString();
14
15 const params = new URLSearchParams({
16 query: request.url,
17 video_quality: 'best', // Maximum quality for evidence
18 webhook_url: 'https://legal-vault.com/api/evidence',
19 webhook_authorization: 'Bearer ' + process.env.VAULT_SECRET,
20 });
21
22 const res = await fetch(`${API_BASE}/video/download?${params}`, {
23 headers: { 'x-api-key': API_KEY }
24 });
25
26 const { job_id } = await res.json();
27
28 // Create evidence record with audit trail
29 const evidenceRecord = {
30 job_id,
31 caseId: request.caseId,
32 sourceUrl: request.url,
33 captureTime,
34 requestedBy: request.requestedBy,
35 reason: request.reason,
36 hash: crypto.createHash('sha256').update(request.url + captureTime).digest('hex'),
37 };
38
39 console.log(`Evidence preserved: Case ${request.caseId}`);
40 console.log(`Capture hash: ${evidenceRecord.hash}`);
41
42 return evidenceRecord;
43}
