Configuring the Brightcove integration

You can configure integrated search with Brightcove at the Global level or the site level. Global configurations are inherited by all sites, and site-level configurations override Global configurations. This topic explains how to configure this integrated search at the Global level.

To configure integrated search with Brightcove:

1. In your Brightcove console, obtain your account ID, player ID, client ID, client secret, and policy key. For details, see Managing API Authentication Credentials. To obtain the policy key, see Getting the policy key.
2. Click menu > Admin > Sites & Settings > Sites > Global.
3. Click search, located to the left of more_horiz, and type Brightcove.
4. In the Global Import Frequency field, enter the number of minutes after which Brightspot imports videos added to Brightcove.
   
   Note

   Frequent imports keep your Brightspot video inventory up to date, but they may also cause an increase in resource load. The default frequency is every minute.
5. Under Settings, click add_circle_outline and select Create New.
6. In the Internal Name field, enter an internal name. Brightspot uses this name in selection fields.
7. Expand Credentials, and enter the credentials from step 1.
8. Expand Import, and make the following settings:
   
   • Task Host Name—The IP or domain name of the Brightspot host that imports videos from Brightcove.
   • Ingestion Run Record—Read-only field displaying the times when the importer last checked for new videos in Brightcove, and when the importer last ingested a video into Brightspot.
   • Import Enabled—Toggle on to import videos from your Brightcove account that were not previously imported. If importing Brightcove videos for the first time, toggle this field on.
   • Full Import Enabled—Toggle on to import all videos from your Brightcove account, including videos that were previously imported. This field is ignored if the Import Enabled field is toggled off.
   • Import User—Brightspot records the selected user as the one who initiates the import from Brightcove.
9. Click Save.
10. Click Back.

11. From the Settings list, select the integration you created.
