Find Your Credentials
Partner ID and Admin Secret
Open the KMC Integration Settings page:
https://kmc.kaltura.com/index.php/kmcng/settings/integrationSettings
Navigation path: Login to KMC → Settings → Integration.
The page displays:
| Field | Format | How to Copy |
|---|---|---|
| Partner ID | Numeric integer | Displayed directly |
| Admin Secret | 32-character string | Click the Copy button |
The Admin Secret has a dedicated Copy button — use it to copy the value directly to your clipboard.
Service URL
The base API endpoint depends on your account's region:
| Region | Service URL |
|---|---|
| US (default) | https://www.kaltura.com/api_v3 |
| EU | https://www.kaltura.com/api_v3 |
To identify your region: check the domain in your KMC URL when logged in. Most accounts use the default US endpoint.
For microservice APIs (Agents Manager, Conversational AI), the region code appears in the URL pattern: https://{service}.{regionCode}.ovp.kaltura.com
Player ID
Open the KMC Player Studio:
https://kmc.kaltura.com/index.php/kmcng/studio/v3
Each player configuration displays a numeric ID (also called uiConf ID) in the list. Copy the ID of the player you want to use for embedding.
If no players exist yet, create one from this studio page — the default configuration works for most use cases.
User ID
The User ID identifies who performed each API action and who owns created content. Choose based on your use case:
| Scenario | Recommended User ID | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Personal development | Your admin email | Content tied to your account |
| AI agent automation | claude-code-kaltura-dev | Identify agent-created content in reports |
| Application backend | app-service-account | Distinguish app actions from human actions |
| Testing | test-automation | Easy to filter in audit logs |
Any string works as a User ID. Choose one that helps you identify the source of actions in analytics reports and audit logs.
Video Portal URL (Optional)
Only needed for guides that interact with the Events Platform or embed portal components.
| Portal Type | Default URL Pattern |
|---|---|
| Events Platform | https://\{PID\}.events.kaltura.com or https://\{PID\}-{instance}.events.kaltura.com |
| Content Hubs (MediaSpace) | https://\{PID\}.mediaspace.kaltura.com or https://\{PID\}-{instance}.mediaspace.kaltura.com |
The \{PID\} is your Partner ID and {instance} is a numeric instance identifier (e.g. https://123456.events.kaltura.com or https://123456-1.events.kaltura.com). Some accounts use a custom site name string instead of the PID.
The portal URL may also be a fully white-labeled custom domain (e.g. https://video.yourcompany.com). Find your portal URL by logging into your Kaltura site and checking the browser address bar.
