<\/span><\/a>Let’s take a look at how the Axis VAPIX work.<\/p>\n

\"Axis<\/span><\/p>\n

This article is an introduction to the <\/span>AXIS API<\/span><\/strong> and how to use it. Here, you can grasp how it works and then use the official <\/span>Axis VAPIX library<\/span><\/a> to write your code.<\/span><\/p>\n

What is VAPIX<\/h2>\n

If you are a software developer, you probably know what an API is, right?<\/p>\n

I’m assuming you know the basics of programming and API so you are here just to understand how to use VAPIX so you can use it to make devices to communicate. <\/p>\n

Alright, so here’s the definition.<\/p>\n

VAPIX\u00ae<\/strong> is an open API <\/strong>(Application Programming Interface) developed by Axis Communications using standard protocols to integrate the communication between different devices and platforms and automate tasks.<\/p>\n

With this API, it’s possible to use a variety of features such as:<\/p>\n

  • Request video stream<\/span><\/li>\n
  • List the device settings<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Control the recording<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Enable and disable I\/Os<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Manage the SD card<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Control PTZ (Pan\/Tilt\/Zoom)<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Create interaction between devices<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Work with triggers and events<\/span><\/li>\n

    This is only a basic list of things you can do using VAPIX.<\/p>\n

    The available VAPIX API<\/h2>\n

    Here’s a list of the VAPIX APIs.<\/p>\n
