I have a device reporting data to Losant using MQTT.  
Connected to this device is also an IP camera where live video can be viewed when connected to the first device via a VPN.  
What options do I have in being able to show video through the Losant experience when so needed on demand?

Any help or suggestions would be very helpful.

Hey @Lars_Andersson,

I would look into a service like [Azure Media Services](https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/services/media-services/#overview) which provides a REST API as well as some web widgets.

Thank you,  
Heath
