Broadcaster Management with API

Broadcaster lets you translate live streams and re‑stream the translations to your destinations. Learn the basics in the Broadcaster overview.

This page shows how to manage Broadcast Tasks with the Broadcaster API.

General Flow​

  • Create a Palabra account to obtain Palabra API Credentials.
  • Send a POST /broadcasts request to create a Broadcast Task, configuring:
    • input protocol (how Palabra receives your original stream)
    • output protocols (how Palabra restreams the translated version)
    • translation pipeline (how Palabra will recognise, translate and voice over the translations)
    • optional settings to adjust your setup
  • Send your stream to the Palabra server (or Palabra pulls it from your server, depending on the protocol).
  • Palabra translates your stream in real time.
  • Palabra re-streams the translated version to your server or to a web player with low latency.

Note: You don’t need to start translation manually. Once your original stream is detected on Palabra side, Palabra automatically translates it and re‑streams the result to your configured destinations, changing the Broadcast Task's status to the running.
