Get Engagement Hotspots for a Playback ID
get
Beta

Returns the engagement hotspots for a playback ID. Hotspots are the most or least engaging moments of the content, each described by a start and end time (in milliseconds) and a score between 0 and 1. Set order_direction to asc to return the least engaging moments (cold spots). This only covers views for this specific playback ID; to analyze the entire asset across all of its playback IDs, use the asset ID or video ID endpoint instead.
