FAQ

What is All Access?

A collection of APIs for Movie, TV, Celebrity, Video, Image, Showtime, TV Grid, Recommendations and much more to help you build incredible content discovery experiences.

Are There Any Limitations?

Limits are based on your level of access. Origin Nexus can scale to meet any major enterprise need.

• Demo accounts are limited to 5 calls per second and a max of 1,000 calls per month, video is limited to 450 kbps and additional APIs may have more restrictive rate limiting. Not all endpoints are accessible through this subscription.

• Enterprise accounts contact Sales. Rate limits start a 5 calls per second but can scale to meet the needs of any enterprise business. Additional calls can be added for a fee.

• Rate limit policies use a sliding window. Requests will be allowed only if less than the configured max number of requests were made in the last 20 seconds.

Do you offer a Service Level Agreement (SLA)?

Yes! Origin Nexus understands the importance of keeping services available. See your enterprise contract for details or contact Sales.

Do you have any SDK's?

Service Stack References are available for a number of languages and most IDE's. Check out our Getting Started page for more information.

Does the API support SSL?

Yes. All of our APIs including data, video, and images support SSL.

Can I use your videos on YouTube?

No. All videos are hosted by Origin Nexus, come with an SLA and clearance from the stuidos but are not cleared for YouTube. You may use these videos on your own site where you can control the advertising.

Can I monetize the video?

Yes. Note: Some videos have a restriction on ads. See the documentation on the AllowAds parameter in the MovieVideo object from the metadata.

Do you have full length content?

No. Origin Nexus aggregates short form promotional video only.

Is there a limit on the number of records returned by the API?

Yes. The limit varies by endpoint and is clearly documented in the open API spec and in our documentation, under the "Rate Limits" section.

What is the difference between the Modified and Timestamp field?

The difference between Modified and TimeStamp is that Modified is when something was changed, i.e. an availability link was added. Whereas TimeStamp is when the entire document was saved to the index and made available publicly.

What is the difference between the originalTitle and Title?

OriginalTitle is a required property and is defined as the title of the program in its original language. Title (Optional): Specifies the common English translation of the program. If no translation is available, this field returns null.

Where do I see your data?

We have two pages where our data can be seen. Here is what we recommend which one to use for:

Origin Nexus Site*:

• Search and Find titles by titles, celebrities, and collections.

• Filter images and videos by language

• Superior user interface

Developer Portal (APIs):

• Interactive API (Swagger)

• Documentation

• Guides and examples

*Sign up by going to FabricOrigin.com and hit "7 day free trial" and establish your own credentials. Our team will review your request for access which is typically reserved for clients and prospects. If you have not spoken to a sales rep, one will be in touch.

What are subchannels and where do I find them?

Subchannels are bundled offerings between two different streaming platforms. They indicate that a user must have an active subscription to both services in order to watch a program on the primary platform.

For example, the subchannel AmazonCrunchyroll means a user can watch the program on Amazon, but it requires them to have a linked Crunchyroll subscription to access it.

You can retrieve a full, up-to-date list of all available subchannels by calling our /Common/GetCommonEnumerators API endpoint.
