Vision Detection Systems
API & INTEGRATIONS

Built to
plug in.

AI VisionStream exposes a full REST API, real-time webhooks, and SIEM-ready event streams — so your existing security stack can talk to VDS natively.

VDS REST API and integration endpoints documentation
API SURFACE

Six integration points.
One platform.

01

REST API

Full CRUD access to sites, cameras, events, and users. JSON over HTTPS with token auth.

02

Webhooks

Real-time event delivery to your endpoint — detections, status changes, and system health.

03

IMMIX Integration

Native IMMIX-compatible video and event forwarding for central-station monitoring workflows.

04

Access Management

Programmatic user provisioning, role assignment, and site-level permissions.

05

Video Export

On-demand clip export via API with signed URLs and configurable retention.

06

Status & Health

Camera online/offline status, bandwidth metrics, and storage utilization endpoints.

FOR DEVELOPERS

Built by engineers.
For engineers.

Token-based authentication, versioned endpoints, rate limiting, comprehensive error codes, and OpenAPI specs. We build our own integrations on the same API we ship to partners.

INTEGRATION PATTERNS

Where VDS plugs into your stack.

Central stations & alarm monitoring

VDS alerts flow directly to central station receivers — native IMMIX-compatible video and event forwarding, plus SIA DC-09 alarm transport — so monitored accounts slot into existing dispatch workflows.

SIEM & IT security

Push detections, status changes, and system health to your SIEM or IT dashboard via webhooks and the REST API for centralized threat management and audit logging.

VMS & access control

ONVIF and RTSP support brings VDS cameras into industry-standard VMS platforms, and video events can correlate with door events and badge reads for faster investigation.

Enterprise identity

SAML 2.0 single sign-on ties platform access to your identity provider, with programmatic user provisioning and site-level permissions through the API.

See the full protocol and platform list on the integrations page.

FAQ

Common questions.

How do I get API access?

API access is provisioned per account. Request access and our integration team maps your existing infrastructure, configures the connections, and runs end-to-end tests before handoff — token credentials and endpoint details come with onboarding.

How does authentication work?

JSON over HTTPS with token auth. SAML 2.0 single sign-on is available for platform users, and user provisioning, role assignment, and site-level permissions are all manageable through the API.

Can events feed our central station?

Yes. VDS supports native IMMIX-compatible video and event forwarding and SIA DC-09 alarm transport, so verified events route into standard central-station monitoring and dispatch workflows.

Can integrators white-label the platform?

Yes. Strategic partners can white-label both hardware and the VisionStream platform under their own brand, and software-only white label is available for partners with existing camera hardware.
