Generate and copy permalinks (with EdgeAuth tokens) for publishing or subscribing using the page accessed via the "EdgeAuth" menu item from any Channel in the Channel list. You can select the duration and capabilities for the link. These links can be used as-is, embedded in web pages, or the tokens can be used as you would any EdgeAuth token.
On the Create Token page, you can copy either the entire permalink or copy only the individual token or tokens.
For permalinks containing multiple tokens, you can copy each token individually using the “Copy” button next to the token. For example, a permalink for publishing has both auth and publish tokens.
For permalinks containing multiple tokens, you can copy each token individually using the “Copy” button next to the token. For example, a permalink for publishing has both auth and publish tokens.

Under the Analytics menu:
Publishing shows video and audio quality, duration of published stream, peak concurrent views, total views for the selected time period
Viewing shows video and audio quality of both origin and viewed stream, viewer-specific information, and user agent for the selected time period.
Fork History (source and destination, status of request, etc.)
Concurrents (number of concurrent views for the Channel)
Ingest (underruns, in milliseconds, useful to see the connection quality, especially for RTMP ingest). Even if the underruns are too small to be seen on the graph, downloading the report may show a pattern of smaller underruns.
