IMPORTING

Required arguments:

iv_channelname TYPE /AWS1/MDT__STRING /AWS1/MDT__STRING

The name of the channel.

it_outputs TYPE /AWS1/CL_MDTREQUESTOUTPUTITEM=>TT_REQUESTOUTPUTS TT_REQUESTOUTPUTS

The channel's output properties.

iv_playbackmode TYPE /AWS1/MDTPLAYBACKMODE /AWS1/MDTPLAYBACKMODE

The type of playback mode to use for this channel.

LINEAR - The programs in the schedule play once back-to-back in the schedule.

LOOP - The programs in the schedule play back-to-back in an endless loop. When the last program in the schedule stops playing, playback loops back to the first program in the schedule.

Optional arguments:

io_fillerslate TYPE REF TO /AWS1/CL_MDTSLATESOURCE /AWS1/CL_MDTSLATESOURCE

The slate used to fill gaps between programs in the schedule. You must configure filler slate if your channel uses the LINEAR PlaybackMode. MediaTailor doesn't support filler slate for channels using the LOOP PlaybackMode.

it_tags TYPE /AWS1/CL_MDT__MAPOF__STRING_W=>TT___MAPOF__STRING TT___MAPOF__STRING

The tags to assign to the channel. Tags are key-value pairs that you can associate with Amazon resources to help with organization, access control, and cost tracking. For more information, see Tagging AWS Elemental MediaTailor Resources.

iv_tier TYPE /AWS1/MDTTIER /AWS1/MDTTIER

The tier of the channel.

io_timeshiftconfiguration TYPE REF TO /AWS1/CL_MDTTIMESHIFTCONF /AWS1/CL_MDTTIMESHIFTCONF

The time-shifted viewing configuration you want to associate to the channel.

it_audiences TYPE /AWS1/CL_MDTAUDIENCES_W=>TT_AUDIENCES TT_AUDIENCES

The list of audiences defined in channel.

Syntax Example

This is an example of the syntax for calling the method. It includes every possible argument and initializes every possible value. The data provided is not necessarily semantically accurate (for example the value "string" may be provided for something that is intended to be an instance ID, or in some cases two arguments may be mutually exclusive). The syntax shows the ABAP syntax for creating the various data structures.
