API Reference Documentation#

Overview

The Application Streaming API is mainly used to query which application streams are active for a given deployment or to initiate and manage a new application stream for developers desiring to embed Omniverse Cloud application streams into their own custom applications or environments.

Stream Management

All application streams for a deployment are initiated by the Application Streaming API and can be introspected via the same API, regardless of whether they are initiated via a custom application or environment.

Developer Use Case

The primary reason to use the Application Streaming API is if you, as a developer, want to embed a streamed Omniverse application into your own application. An example use case would be leveraging the graphics and computing power of a remote node to stream a high-quality interactive render of a USD scene into your own application.
