Wowza stream_targets API
Operations related to stream targets. A stream target is a destination for a stream. Stream targets can be Wowza Video edge resources; custom, external destinations, target destinations. ### Wowza CDN Stream Targets Wowza CDN stream targets distribute streams to players. When you create a live stream in the API, a Wowza CDN stream target is created automatically. In contrast, you can use ``/stream_targets/wowza_cdn`` endpoints to manually create Wowza CDN stream targets and associate them with transcoders. With Wowza CDN stream targets, you can use geo-blocking to control locations where your stream can be viewed, and you can use token authentication to restrict access to streams. Advanced configuration properties are available for Wowza CDN stream targets. ### Custom Stream Targets Custom stream targets connect to external CDNs to deliver streams to viewers. You manually create custom stream targets and associate them to a transcoder.
