### Quick Start: Dynamic Ingest API

Source: https://apis.support.brightcove.com/search_q=standard-live-ingest-profiles

Get started with the Dynamic Ingest API by learning how to add videos to Video Cloud using CURL commands. This quick start guide walks through the essential steps and credential setup.

```APIDOC
## Quick Start: Dynamic Ingest API

### Description
Walkthrough for adding videos to Video Cloud using the Dynamic Ingest API via CURL command-line interface.

### Main Functions
The Dynamic Ingest API enables you to:
- Add videos to Video Cloud
- Upload associated media assets (thumbnails, posters)
- Specify transcoding profiles and renditions
- Set video metadata and custom fields
- Manage ingestion priorities and workflows

### Steps
1. **Get Client Credentials**: Obtain API credentials from Brightcove
2. **Generate Access Token**: Use credentials to request OAuth 2.0 token
3. **Prepare Video Source**: Identify video file location (URL, S3, etc.)
4. **Create Ingest Request**: Construct Dynamic Ingest API payload
5. **Submit via CURL**: Execute POST request with video details
6. **Monitor Status**: Check job progress using status endpoint
7. **Verify Results**: Confirm video appears in Video Cloud account

### Get Client Credentials
- Navigate to Brightcove API authentication settings
- Create OAuth 2.0 credentials for Dynamic Ingest API
- Store client ID and client secret securely
- Generate access tokens using credential flow
- Include token in API request headers

### CURL Example
```
curl -X POST https://ingest.api.brightcove.com/v1/accounts/{account_id}/videos \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer {access_token}" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"name":"Video Title","description":"Video Description"}'
```

3. Include access token in API requests

### Base URL
https://oauth.brightcove.com/v4

### Typical Flow
- Create client credentials for your API integration
- Request access token using credentials
- Use access token to authenticate API calls
- Refresh token when expired

### Related Endpoints
- POST /oauth/token - Request access token
- Manage client credentials in Brightcove Studio
```
