Qurey Media Service Assets Or Streaming Locators

Question

Hello there,

I want to get a locator by id but so I appended this Odata filter query to api properties/streamingLocatorId eq 6ef0ae17-df85-4777-bd94-d6be5571e650

but I got a response error with Filter by 'properties/streamingLocatorId' is not allowed

do i have to enable it or its not allowed at all.

Same for getting an asset with first part of its name, i uses this OData filter startswith(name, 'value')
I got a response error with Function startswith is not allowed

Checking the documentation on Filtering, it looks like we limit the filtering of Streaming Locators to the following properties in v3 API.

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/media-services/latest/filter-order-page-entities-how-to

• name
• properties/created
• properties/endTime

Looks like the name would work for you, as name is unique ID in the v3 API.

Try the same query with "name"

let findByName = name eq ${locatorName};
