Axis has introduced a dedicated VAPIX Analytics MQTT API in AXIS OS 12.2, making it easier for applications to efficiently use analytics metadata from cameras supporting AXIS Scene Metadata. 

The API provides two methods for generating analytics metadata: 

  • Frame-by-frame – Ideal for real-time object tracking. 
  • Consolidated – Optimized for post-event analysis, including forensic search and identifying trends, patterns, and insights.  

Where do I find more information?

Please refer to the AXIS Scene Metadata integration guidelines for instructions on how to configure the Analytics MQTT API.
