Link to Microsoft Stream API documentation

I understand from this update that there is now a set of APIs available for Microsoft Stream. Can anyone assist and point me to the documentation for this. 

 

Is this the correct documentation. We have a requirement to migrate our automated Office 365 Video upload processes to Stream.

    Craig Stanley  We just checked again with Microsoft and here is there statement:

     

    Microsoft Premier Support Engineer:

    "I understand that you are curious about the availability of an API for use with your Microsoft Stream subscription due to the imminent move from Office 365 Video to Microsoft 365 Stream. Unfortunately we do not have a set date for the general availability of the REST API for Microsoft Stream, and the only documentation that I have available to offer more information are the following articles. The new Microsoft Stream - Microsoft Stream | Microsoft Docs and Video REST API reference | Microsoft Docs  Certainly understand if this does not satisfy your initial inquiry, but that is all of the information that I would have available at this time regarding the availability of a Stream specific API."

     

    Very "Cart before the Horse" to force conversion from video to stream on March 1, 2021 and not have an API as of 1/28/2021.

      Looking at this the API has not been released yet. I would like an API or PowerApps Connector to pull stream likes, transcript search, views and other meta data related to the video content.

    There is not yet a public API for Microsoft Stream as I understand it.  It's set to be available later in the year, 2018 Q4 according to the Office 365 roadmap though on the feature breakdown it mentions 2018 Q2/Q3 as estimates.

      Thanks Cian

       

      I understand the challenges but as the year commences my expectations are that delivery dates should be able to be narrowed down to a firmer set of dates from those laid out at Future Decoded and the Tech Summit.   I am finding this issue frustrating.

        Sure, some further clarity would be helpful, I haven't seen any recent updates on the transition from Office 365 Video to Stream.  There has to be a replacement for the Office 365 Video REST API in Stream for the transition to progress is how I read it from here - Office 365 Video will transition to Microsoft Stream in time for phase 2.
