Integration Getting Started

What is a WellcomeMat Media Hash?

A WellcomeMat Media Hash is a globally unique identifier that represents a single “Media” object within the WellcomeMat platform. This identifier begins by representing the original uploaded video, but as the video progresses through its lifecycle, it can encompass multiple variations and related media types. These may include unbranded versions of the video (for compliance with MLS rules), preview clips you can use for promotional purposes, licensed or approved versions for specific use cases, and even additional media elements such as a series of still images, chaptering data for segmented viewing, or interactive features designed to enhance the user experience. By maintaining a consistent media hash throughout these changes, WellcomeMat ensures seamless integration and a cohesive experience for both partners and end users, regardless of how the underlying media evolves over time.
