Hello everyone,

I’m running Wowza Streaming Engine 4.1.2

I have several applications that run directly on this server to publish live audio to a cdn .

It is possible to restart through a rest API this apps¿ ?

If not, perhaps using CLI or similar¿ ??

Thanks in advance and apologize for my english

regards,

Jorge

Hello,

Wowza Streaming Engine media server software has REST Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) that can be used to configure, manage, and monitor the media server through HTTP requests.

Plese take a look at the following forum article for information on how to access this documentation and also how to license the REST API: [WOWZA STREAMING ENGINE REST API](https://www.wowza.com/docs/wowza-streaming-engine-rest-api)

Regards,

Zoran
