Retrieve series recordings and requests

Request

To retrieve series recordings and/or requests for the user, send a GET request to:

CODE

https://<host>:<port>/cdvr/v2/seriesrecordings

This API supports:

Limiting the number of records returned
Paging
Filtering the results

There are also endpoints for:

Retrieving the recordings for a specific series – see GET /v2/recordings/series/{seriesId} in the NPVR User Recordings API documentation v2.
Retrieving the status of series recordings (which returns a much smaller response) – see Retrieve series recording statuses.

Headers

Content-Type: application/json
Authorisation

Mandatory arguments

None

Other arguments (in URL)

limit – the number of records to return
page – the page number to return (cannot be used without limit)
For example:
- ?limit=10 returns the first 10 recordings.
- ?limit=10&page=2 returns the second 10 recordings.
filter – a generic filter that allows you to filter the results based on the value of any field
ignoreRecording – if true, the response only includes series details. It does not include the recordings themselves. The default is false.

Response

A successful request returns an HTTP 200 status.

A bad request returns an HTTP 400 status.

An unauthorised request returns an HTTP 401 status.

Example

A successful request returns a payload that looks like this:
