ingestsarray

Input (ingest) protocol for the stream. Send a one-item array with the selected protocol, or an empty array to clear the selection; only one protocol can be active at a time. RTMP is always available. The advanced protocols (RTMPS, RTSP, SRT, WHIP, ZIXI, RIST, ICECAST) are Advanced Protocol Features and can only be submitted once the stream's hasAdvancedFeatures flag is enabled; enabling this flag requires review and activation by the support team. Read-only when the stream's ingestsLock is greater than 0. Allowed values: RTMP, RTMPS, RTSP, SRT, WHIP, ZIXI, RIST, ICECAST.

protocolsarray

Output protocols to enable for the stream. Send every protocol that should remain enabled; any protocol omitted from the array is disabled. Allowed values: RTMP, RTSP, DASH, HLS (HLS_FMP4 is reserved for future use and is not currently selectable in the UI). Read-only when the stream's protocolsLock is 1; enabling a new output protocol requires review and activation by the support team.
