When you create a job, Elastic Transcoder returns JSON data that includes the values that you specified plus information about the job that is created.

If you have specified more than one output for your jobs (for example, one output for the Kindle Fire and another output for the Apple iPhone 4s), you currently must use the Elastic Transcoder API to list the jobs (as opposed to the AWS Console).

Request body

PipelineIdstring required

The <code>Id</code> of the pipeline that you want Elastic Transcoder to use for transcoding. The pipeline determines several settings, including the Amazon S3 bucket from which Elastic Transcoder gets the files to transcode and the bucket into which Elastic Transcoder puts the transcoded files.

OutputKeyPrefixstring

The value, if any, that you want Elastic Transcoder to prepend to the names of all files that this job creates, including output files, thumbnails, and playlists.

UserMetadataobject

User-defined metadata that you want to associate with an Elastic Transcoder job. You specify metadata in <code>key/value</code> pairs, and you can add up to 10 <code>key/value</code> pairs per job. Elastic Transcoder does not guarantee that <code>key/value</code> pairs are returned in the same order in which you specify them.

Response

Success
