## Kaltura Virtual Events Platform API

The Virtual Events Platform has a dedicated modern REST API (OAS 3.0) for creating and managing virtual events — town halls, webinars, conferences, and training sessions. This is separate from the main Kaltura API v3 and uses a different base URL with JSON request bodies.

**Base URL:** `https://events-api.nvp1.ovp.kaltura.com/api/v1` (production NVP region)  
**Auth:** `Authorization: Bearer <KS>` header (standard Kaltura Session)  
**Format:** JSON request/response bodies, all endpoints use POST  
**Regions:** NVP (default), EU (`irp2`), DE (`frp2`)
