Read Stream

Description

Reads an event stream from system. This read operation provides the client with an origin server address for the given stream name and scope.

Optionally region can also be specified if origin / edge at a specific region is required. If a node is found at the requested region, that will be provided else the next best optimal node will be provided.

• For Broadcasters the Origin address is used to publish a stream
• For Subscribers the Origin address helps in looking up a suitable edge address for the stream via Origin API gateway
• Query parameter region , is used to optionally lookup a node in a specific region for a broadcast or subscribe request. The specified value for region should match the regions supported by your clloud service provider (Google Compute or Amazon Web Services.

If a stream is not publishing, a subscribe type request will result in a http code 400 or 404.
