How to schedule my live ingest using csv?
I have a lot of live ingests to schedule for an upcoming event — can I create them all at once instead of one by one?

Fill in one row per live ingest, keeping the header row exactly as downloaded
- START DATE and END DATE — DD/MM/YYYY, in the future
- START TIME and END TIME — hh:mm in UTC, not your local time
- SCOREPLAY RECEIVER ID — the number in the ID column of Live > Receiver PUSH or Live > Receiver PULL

- RECEIVER GROUP ID — fill this instead of a receiver ID to use a receiver group
- PULL URL — the SRT, RTMP or HLS URL, for a pull ingest with no saved pull receiver
- RECORDING NAME — the name shown in the File name column

- LIVE PRESET — the preset name, or empty to generate 1080p and 720p proxies only
Import the file

- Reopen Live > Schedule > … > Bulk import
- Click Add, select your file, then click Import
- The new ingests appear in the Schedule tab with the status SCHEDULED, showing both UTC and your local time

🔖 Notes

Admin is not one of the selectable account types for media access, so listing it in the AVAILABLE ACCOUNTS column has no effect
Imported schedules can be edited afterwards one by one from the … menu on each row
