Hello !

I’m trying to create Applications with Wowza REST API. I used Wowza 4.2.0.

The PHP:

```auto
$arrayAPI =
[
	"restURI" => "http://localhost:8087/v2/servers/_defaultServer_/vhosts/_defaultVHost_/applications/".htmlspecialchars($_POST["uuid"]),
	"name" => htmlspecialchars($_POST["uuid"]),
	"appType" => "Live",
	"clientStreamReadAccess" => "*",
	"clientStreamWriteAccess" => "*",
	"description" => htmlspecialchars($_POST["uuid"])." application",
	"streamConfig" => [
		 "restURI" => "http://localhost:8087/v2/servers/_defaultServer_/vhosts/_defaultVHost_/applications/".htmlspecialchars($_POST["uuid"])."/streamconfiguration",
		 "streamType" => "live-record",
		 "storageDir" => "/data/users/ftp-root/road-iq/".htmlspecialchars($_POST["name_dvdr"])."/wowza/content"
	]
];
$resAPI = CallAPI('POST', 'http://localhost:8087/v2/servers/_defaultServer_/vhosts/_defaultVHost_/applications/'.htmlspecialchars($_POST["uuid"]), $arrayAPI);

```

This short code created the application. But the MediaCaster Stream Monitor is enabled and prevent HLS on iPad to working fine.

For comparaison, I created an application with Wowza Manager Application, and all work fine.

How I can disable the MediaCaster Stream Monitor when I created an application when REST API ?

Hello

You can use the following endpoint to modify the actions of the validator:

```auto
PUT http://localhost:8087/v2/servers/_defaultServer_/vhosts/_defaultVHost_/applications/live/adv

```

So a simple cURL example request to turn this off would be as follows:

```auto
curl -X PUT http://localhost:8087/v2/servers/_defaultServer_/vhosts/_defaultVHost_/applications/live/adv --header 'Accept:application/json; charset=utf-8' --header 'Content-type:application/json' -d '{
   [B]"enabled": false,[/B]
   "canRemove": false,
   "name": "enable",
   "value": "true",
   "defaultValue": "true",
   "type": "Boolean",
   "sectionName": "MediaCasterStreamMonitor",
   "section": null,
   "documented": true
}'

```

Thanks,

Matt

Hello,

I’m creating an application using the REST API.

Compared the Application.xml generated via REST with the generated via Interface Admin Wowza. There are several extra modules created via REST API. Must remove them or leave them with **enable: false**.

I can not change all of them using the methods UPDATE (Updates the specified advanced Application configuration).

examples:

All MediaCasterStreamMonitor

{

**"enabled": true** ,

“canRemove”: false,

“name”: “enable”,

“value”: “true”,

“defaultValue”: “true”,

“type”: “Boolean”,

“sectionName”: “MediaCasterStreamMonitor”,

“section”: null,

“documented”: true

},

{

**"enabled": true** ,

“canRemove”: false,

“name”: “resetNameGroups”,

“value”: “true”,

“defaultValue”: “true”,

“type”: “Boolean”,

“sectionName”: “MediaCasterStreamMonitor”,

“section”: null,

“documented”: true

},…

and

{

“enabled”: true,

“canRemove”: false,

“name”: “securityPublishRTMPSecureURL”,

“value”: null,

“defaultValue”: null,

“type”: “String”,

“sectionName”: “Application”,

“section”: “/Root/Application”,

“documented”: false

},

{

“enabled”: true,

“canRemove”: false,

“name”: “securityPublishIPBlackList”,

“value”: null,

“defaultValue”: null,

“type”: “String”,

“sectionName”: “Application”,

“section”: “/Root/Application”,

“documented”: false

},

{

“enabled”: true,

“canRemove”: false,

“name”: “securityPublishIPWhiteList”,

“value”: null,

“defaultValue”: null,

“type”: “String”,

“sectionName”: “Application”,

“section”: “/Root/Application”,

“documented”: false

},

{

“enabled”: true,

“canRemove”: false,

“name”: “securityPublishValidEncoders”,

“value”: null,

“defaultValue”: null,

“type”: “String”,

“sectionName”: “Application”,

“section”: “/Root/Application”,

“documented”: false

},

Thank you for yout help!

Hello Trevisan. Can you please explain, in detail what you are trying to do and what you have already tried? Your post is unclear about what you need help with.
