Stream creation & analytics API updates 🎉

This update comes with two new parameters allowed on two different routes. The first is allowing you to decide what channel type to use when creating a new live stream with the API, and the second is allowing you to fetch analytics with your current timezone to shift the results according to your needs.

Stream creation

• Create a new livestream with a specific channel type

Creating a livestream can now take a new parameter channel_type in the body, such as:

{
  "channel_type": "hd-transcode",
  ...
}

Analytics timezone

• Fetch analytics with a timezone offset

You can now request your analytics data with a timezone offset according to your position (relative to UTC). For example you can add a 8 hours offset as so:

{
  "timezone-offset": 8,
  ...
}

All the documentation is available on the Dacast readme pages.
