You can later create a paid account where you're not limited by the quota. Two types of paid accounts are available to you: Azure Resource Manager (ARM) (currently in preview) and classic (generally available). The main difference between the two is account management platform. While classic accounts are built on the API Management, ARM-based accounts management is built on Azure, which enables apply access control to all services with role-based access control (Azure RBAC) natively.

Azure Video Indexer consolidates various audio and video artificial intelligence (AI) technologies offered by Microsoft into one integrated service, making development simpler. The APIs are designed to enable developers to focus on consuming Media AI technologies without worrying about scale, global reach, availability, and reliability of cloud platforms. You can use the API to upload your files, get detailed video insights, get URLs of embeddable insight and player widgets, and more.

## Recommendations
72+
73+
This section lists some recommendations when using Azure Video Indexer API.
74+
75+
- If you're planning to upload a video, it's recommended to place the file in some public network location (for example, an Azure Blob Storage account). Get the link to the video and provide the URL as the upload file param.
76+
77+
The URL provided to Azure Video Indexer must point to a media (audio or video) file. An easy verification for the URL (or SAS URL) is to paste it into a browser, if the file starts playing/downloading, it's likely a good URL. If the browser is rendering some visualization, it's likely not a link to a file but to an HTML page.
78+
- When you call the API that gets video insights for the specified video, you get a detailed JSON output as the response content. [See details about the returned JSON in this topic](video-indexer-output-json-v2.md).
79+
- The JSON output produced by the API contains `Insights` and `SummarizedInsights` elements. We highly recommend using `Insights` and not using `SummarizedInsights` (which is present for backward compatibility).
80+
- We do not recommend that you use data directly from the artifacts folder for production purposes. Artifacts are intermediate outputs of the indexing process. They are essentially raw outputs of the various AI engines that analyze the videos; the artifacts schema may change over time.
81+
82+
It is recommended that you use the [Get Video Index](https://api-portal.videoindexer.ai/api-details#api=Operations&operation=Get-Video-Index) API, as described in [Get insights and artifacts produced by the API](video-indexer-output-json-v2.md#get-insights-produced-by-the-api) and **not** [Get-Video-Artifact-Download-Url](https://api-portal.videoindexer.ai/api-details#api=Operations&operation=Get-Video-Artifact-Download-Url).
