The Verbit-Kaltura integration allows a two-way link between the Kaltura KMC platform and Verbit's captioning solution.

In this setup, you can manage your content in Kaltura, pick the files you want for captioning and indicate specifications you need along with the caption jobs during upload; such as turnaround times, all of which is sent to Verbit for processing. 

Once the file completes the prescribed captioning workflow, you can review the captions in Verbit and send it back to Kaltura; either manually or automatically.

1. Log into your Kaltura account.

Enable the Integration Features following your preference 

• Use Proxy (Static IP)
  • This integration feature will restrict access to media files by IP. This feature routes all the requests through Verbit's proxy server so that all requests would be done from a single IP which the customer can permit in their firewalls.
• Enable Tagging
  • This integration feature will have all tags (i.e. search keywords) added to the captions sync back to the Kaltura asset upon delivery.
• Automatically Send Back to Linked Accounts
  • This integration feature will have captions automatically sent to your Kaltura account and associate the caption with the corresponding Kaltura video. 
• Automatically Load New Files from Linked Accounts
  • This integration feature will have Verbit fetch or pull new Kaltura assets uploaded to the linked KMC account. 
• Setting up categories on Kaltura
  • Nothing is needed to be done on the kaltura side when setting up the categories that correspond with the Profiles in Verbit  (The categories are created automatically when the “auto-take” is enable on the Linked accounts.) 

Step 3. Click TEST AND CONNECT and wait for the success confirmation
