Custom Metadata

Along with any technical metadata present in your content files, your content may also have additional metadata that's specific to your business. For example:

• The user ID of the person who uploaded a video
• A unique identifier used by your CDN to keep track of a video
• A link to a page on your website containing detailed information about the content
• The location where the video was recorded

Using Twistage, you can define your own custom metadata fields within our management console. This allows you to extend the Twistage data schema in an arbitrary way.

Custom metadata appears right within our management console alongside any standard metadata captured by Twistage, and can also be viewed and modified using our API. Custom metadata can even be used for searching and sorting your content or for constructing dynamic feeds of content to be used on your organization’s digital properties or for connecting to your syndication partners.
