Retrieving user sign-in status using Video Indexer API

Vishnoi, Astha 160

Is there a API for the Video Indexer to check the sign-in status of a user for the Video Indexer ARM account?

I'm looking for an API that returns this information for developers.

Thank you for your help!

Hi Vishnoi, Astha ,

Thank you for reaching out on the Microsoft Q&A .

Right now, there's no special way to check if a user is logged in to the Azure Video Indexer portal through an API. But here are some simple methods you can use:

Session Cookies: If you're making a website, you can use cookies to remember when someone logs in.

Azure Active Directory: If your app uses Azure Active Directory, it might already have tools to manage logins.

I hope this helps! If you have any further questions, feel free to ask.

Hi Vishnoi, Astha ,

There's no direct API to check login in the Video Indexer portal, but here are some suggestions to help your team view videos: ensure the "reader" role in your Entra ID group has the necessary view permissions (see restricted viewer role documentation), verify that individual employee settings aren't overriding group permissions, check that the videos have finished indexing completely to avoid viewing issues, and try having affected users log out and log back in to refresh their access. If these solutions don't work, consider reaching out to Microsoft support for further investigation. Additional resources that might be helpful include managing access to an Azure AI Video Indexer account and diagnosing Video Indexer resource issues with Azure Resource Health. Thanks!
