Request DRM License

To play DRM-protected content using the Player SDK, a valid DRM license is required. Follow the steps below to request a DRM license from BlendVision One.

Note

If you are using the BlendVision One showroom or iFrame player, no additional integration is needed. Please skip this guide.

Steps to Request a DRM License

1. Obtain a Playback Token

A playback token is required to acquire the DRM license. You can obtain the playback token by using the following API:

POST /bv/cms/v1/tokens

Ensure that your request meets the necessary authentication and parameter requirements defined by the API documentation.

2. Request the DRM License

Once you have the playback token, you can proceed to request the DRM license. The specific endpoint and parameters for this request will depend on the DRM system you are using.
