Response Headers
This operation uses only response headers that are common to most responses. For information about common response headers, see HTTP Responses.
Response Body
The JSON string in the response body returns the values that you specified when you created the pipelines. For more detail about the individual objects, see Settings that You Specify When You Create an Elastic Transcoder Pipeline.
In addition, Elastic Transcoder returns the following values.
- (Automatic) Id
-
Identifier for the pipeline. You use this value to identify the pipeline in which you want to perform a variety of operations, for example, creating a job or a preset.
- (Automatic) Status
-
The current status of the pipeline:
Active
: The pipeline is processing jobs.Paused
: The pipeline is not currently processing jobs.
- (Automatic) NextPageToken
-
A value that you use to access the second and subsequent pages of results, if any. When the pipelines fit on one page or when you've reached the last page of results, the value of
NextPageToken
isnull
.
Errors
