how can i use wowza api to contorl a stream target?

i have a multicast going through wowza to stream to facebook . i want to be able to control it via the wowza api, is there a way to do this.

Hello @johhn test, yes you can control a stream target this way through an API, but you will need to enable the push-publish module first.

Here is a doc on how to do that and then how to control the stream target and obtain info on that stream all through the API.
