Introduction

Motto offers the ability to enhance your video protection by requiring users to sign in before they can access your content. This feature is known as a registration wall.

​
Prerequisites

Before enabling a registration wall, make sure your end-users have a way to sign in. You can use one of the following:
  • Motto’s native user system — Motto handles sign-up and sign-in for you. This is the default option.
  • Motto’s built-in OIDC integration — Connect your existing identity provider through an OIDC integration in the Motto Studio, under OTT → Integrations → OpenID Connect.
  • Your own user management system — Issue Motto tokens for your end-users from your own backend. This is an advanced option, see bring your own user management.

​
Get Started

You can get started using the Motto Studio. To enable a registration wall, first navigate to the “Settings” section in the Motto Studio, and select the “Video protection” tab. Here you can create a new ruleset by clicking the “New ruleset” button, or edit an existing ruleset if you are already applying other protection measures to the same content. In the creation form, you can check the option to enable “require authentication” When using the Motto OTT platform, turning on this feature will prompt users to sign in before they can access the content. If you are using the Motto streaming platform in standalone mode, you will have to handle the authentication flow yourself, for example by bringing your own user management. Make sure to apply the ruleset to the content you wish to protect by selecting the appropriate target(s). For more information, see selecting a target. The ruleset should apply within one minute of saving it. You can also update the ruleset at any time, and the changes will similarly apply within roughly one minute.
