Closed Access is an option that allows you to further secure your content, preventing third parties from violating your signal. Just follow these steps to apply it:


First, enter the Live signal that you want to configure from Platform. Once you log in, go to Access Restrictions in the lower left panel and mark

Finally save the changes.

Once this is done, you must also make the change in the Elemental publications, since otherwise the configuration will not be applied.

When you have made these changes, you must proceed with a generation of consumer tokens from the site to which the Live belongs. Since this procedure is much more technical, it needs to be done by a developer of your site. The documentation to perform this procedure is available at the following link: https://platform.mediastre.am/developer/docs/api#access-token-issue


It is important to specify that these changes must be made from backend to backend since if they are made in front , they could affect account settings from our platform.


Closed access 2.0 - Live Default

With the latest update of the Access restrictions module, to activate the closed access to the live signals, you must go to Settings>Access Restrictions and select Live Default from the Actions button, once inside, mark closed access as Enable and save the changes, in this way only the live signals will require a token, and you do not have to enter the signal for its activation since platform sets it by default.

In addition, you can also configure rules or create new customized access restrictions for content delivery, which can be found at the following link.
