Description

Starts a Composition from a stage based on the configuration provided in the request. A Composition is an ephemeral resource that exists after this operation returns successfully. Composition stops and the resource is deleted:
  • When StopComposition is called.
  • After a 1-minute timeout, when all participants are disconnected from the stage.
  • After a 1-minute timeout, if there are no participants in the stage when StartComposition is called.
  • When broadcasting to the IVS channel fails and all retries are exhausted.
  • When broadcasting is disconnected and all attempts to reconnect are exhausted.

-EndpointUrl <String>
The endpoint to make the call against.Note: This parameter is primarily for internal AWS use and is not required/should not be specified for normal usage.

Only specify this parameter if you must direct the call to a specific custom endpoint.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
-NetworkCredential <PSCredential>

Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByValue, ByPropertyName)
-ProfileLocation <String>
Used to specify the name and location of the ini-format credential file (shared with the AWS CLI and other AWS SDKs)If this optional parameter is omitted this cmdlet will search the encrypted credential file used by the AWS SDK for .NET and AWS Toolkit for Visual Studio first. If the profile is not found then the cmdlet will search in the ini-format credential file at the default location: (user's home directory)\.aws\credentials.If this parameter is specified then this cmdlet will only search the ini-format credential file at the location given.As the current folder can vary in a shell or during script execution it is advised that you use specify a fully qualified path instead of a relative path.

Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
