# Mux App Installation Guide

Mux is a video infrastructure platform that provides APIs for encoding, streaming, hosting, and delivering on-demand and live video content at scale.

The Mux App integrates Mux's video infrastructure directly into Contentstack, allowing you to seamlessly upload, manage, and deliver videos, including configuration for public or signed playback, all from within your Contentstack entries.

## Prerequisites

*   [Mux account](https://dashboard.mux.com/login)
*   [Contentstack account](https://www.contentstack.com/login)
*   Access to the Contentstack Organization/Stack as the Owner/Admin

Follow this step-by-step guide to install and configure Mux within your stack.

## Steps for Execution

2.  ## Install and Configure the Mux App in Marketplace
    
    To install the app, log in to your [Contentstack account](https://www.contentstack.com/login/) and follow the steps below:
    
    1.  Navigate to the “App Switcher” icon in the top-right corner and click **Marketplace**.![Contentstack-App-Switcher-Marketplace](https://images.contentstack.io/v3/assets/blt2d43f51baca745a8/blt47c618781b542b64/68ee96ad6bfd93c9913fee8a/Contentstack-App-Switcher-Marketplace.png)
    2.  Click **Apps** from the left panel.
    3.  Within the Marketplace, you can see the available apps. Hover over the **Mux** app and click **Install**.![Mux-App](https://images.contentstack.io/v3/assets/blt2d43f51baca745a8/blt029ec2c818dd10e2/69cbfb2b5efea12ba3438f48/Mux-App.png)
    4.  In the pop-up window, select the stack where you want to install the Mux app, accept the **Terms of Service**, and click the **Authorize & Install** button.![Mux-App-Authorize-And-Install](https://images.contentstack.io/v3/assets/blt2d43f51baca745a8/blta4fada2e49279723/69c5a7bf8434bf2cbde1b98e/Mux-App-Authorize-And-Install.png)
    5.  On the **Configuration** screen, perform the following steps:
        1.  To connect Contentstack with your Mux account, you need to authenticate first. Provide the **Mux Access Token ID** and **Mux Secret Key** retrieved in [step 1](#retrieve-your-credentials-from-mux). After entering the credentials, click **Authenticate** to verify and establish the connection.![Mux-Configuration-Authentication](https://images.contentstack.io/v3/assets/blt2d43f51baca745a8/bltf3c0837e3d934ea3/69c845dcff7047849610e901/Mux-Configuration-Authentication.png)
            
            **Warning:** Enter valid credentials. If you enter an incorrect **Access Token ID** or **Secret Key**, the app fails authentication and does not function properly.
            
            Once authenticated, you can configure upload settings, webhook details, and playback options for your videos.
            
        2.  In the **Uploads & Webhooks** section, click the **Enable Uploads** toggle to allow users to upload videos directly from entries.![Mux-Configuration-Uploads-And-Webhooks-Enable](https://images.contentstack.io/v3/assets/blt2d43f51baca745a8/blt82f94dcbf9b324ce/69c845ddb327b8394a03cc26/Mux-Configuration-Uploads-And-Webhooks-Enable.png)
            
            After enabling uploads:
            
            1.  Set the **Max Upload Limit** from **1 to 200**.![Mux-Configuration-Uploads-And-Webhooks-Max-Assets-Limit](https://images.contentstack.io/v3/assets/blt2d43f51baca745a8/blt98f3cf41005bf75f/69c845dea41ecb9213b8ea8c/Mux-Configuration-Uploads-And-Webhooks-Max-Assets-Limit.png)
                
                **Note**: To set the **Max Upload Limit** above 200, refer to the [Set Advanced Config Object](#set-advanced-config-object-optional) section.
                
            2.  To configure the webhooks in your Mux app, copy the system-generated **Webhook URL** that receives Mux webhook events, and use it to fetch the **Webhook Signing Secret**.![Mux-Configuration-Uploads-And-Webhooks-URL](https://images.contentstack.io/v3/assets/blt2d43f51baca745a8/bltab406e8cd971850c/69c845ddb4aabb8406a18d26/Mux-Configuration-Uploads-And-Webhooks-URL.png)
                
                **Note**: To retrieve the **Webhook Signing Secret**, refer to the [Get Webhook Signing Secret](<#get-webhook-signing-secret >) section.
                
            3.  Paste the **Webhook Signing Secret** to verify the connection. This configuration allows Mux to send asset events (such as asset creation and processing updates) back to Contentstack and update entry versions automatically.![Mux-Configuration-Uploads-And-Webhooks-Signed-Secret](https://images.contentstack.io/v3/assets/blt2d43f51baca745a8/blt5a9596c31aec980d/69c845dda0fd9e67c10f3e37/Mux-Configuration-Uploads-And-Webhooks-Signed-Secret.png)
                
                **Warning:** Upload functionality does not work unless you configure the webhook correctly in your Mux account.
                
        3.  In the **Manage Videos** section, select which specific roles (e.g., **Admin**, **Developer**, or **Content Manager**) are authorized to manage video assets.
            
            1.  **Roles that can delete videos**: Allow users to remove existing videos.
            2.  **Roles that can select, upload, or edit videos**: Allow users to add, select, modify, or update video assets.
            
            ![Mux-Configuration-Manage-Videos](https://images.contentstack.io/v3/assets/blt2d43f51baca745a8/blt9df754453aa41fac/69cbfae4dfb8e02eaadfb1ca/Mux-Configuration-Manage-Videos.png)
        4.  In the **Playback** section, choose how videos are accessed:
            
            1.  **Public**: Anyone with the playback URL can access the video.
            2.  **Signed (Private)**: The video requires a signed playback token and remains accessible for a limited duration.
            
            **Note:**
            
            *   Select the playback option that matches your Mux playback policy. If you choose **Signed (Private)**, the app generates and manages playback tokens automatically.
            *   If Mux Authentication credentials do not have **System > Write** permissions, the **Signed (Private)** asset option is disabled.
            
            ![Mux-Configuration-Playback](https://images.contentstack.io/v3/assets/blt2d43f51baca745a8/blte2b2f38b03489794/69c845dc310e346ece5f1699/Mux-Configuration-Playback.png)

        2.  You can select the **Public** assets (shown with a standard thumbnail), **Restricted** or **Signed (Private)** assets (marked with a lock icon), and **Audio-only** assets from the selector page.![Mux-Custom-Field-Choose-From-Mux-Selector-Page-Asset-Types](https://images.contentstack.io/v3/assets/blt2d43f51baca745a8/blt835e0448d5c2e898/69c85230dfb8e08b3cdfa467/Mux-Custom-Field-Choose-From-Mux-Selector-Page-Asset-Types.png)
            
            **Note:**
            
            *   To view the signed assets in the custom field, you need to select the playback option as **Signed (Private)** during app configuration in [step 2](#install-and-configure-the-mux-app-in-marketplace).
            *   The app generates a playback token to display the signed asset.

         **Note:**: This option is role-specific, configured in the **Uploads & Webhooks > Manage Videos** section during app configuration in [step 2](#install-and-configure-the-mux-app-in-marketplace).
         
    13.  After adding, editing, and omitting the assets, **Save** and **Publish** your entry.

### Set Advanced Config Object (Optional)

While adding the Mux app in the custom field in [step 3](#use-the-mux-app-within-your-stack), you can set the custom settings to override the configured settings in app installation in [step 2](#install-and-configure-the-mux-app-in-marketplace).

Under **Advanced** properties, you can set the **Config Parameter** for all entries of a particular content type. The **key:value** passed in the configuration object overrides the default app configuration settings.

You can set the **Playback Access** as **Signed** and **Max Assets Limit** to upload videos that can be added in the Mux account and Custom field.

![Mux-Set-Custom-Field-Advanced-Config-Parameter](https://images.contentstack.io/v3/assets/blt2d43f51baca745a8/bltd54bcd7d82a24bd4/69c84dcfb327b88a0503cc3e/Mux-Set-Custom-Field-Advanced-Config-Parameter.png)

In our example, the max asset limit for uploads is 207.

```
{
  "custom_settings":{
    "playback_access":"signed",
    "max_assets_limit":207
  }
}
```

By following the steps, you can ensure your Mux app is fully optimized with the latest permission controls and authentication standards. Once these configurations are saved, you will have a seamless, secure workflow for managing video assets directly within Contentstack.
