Azure Media Services Explorer Tool

Today the Azure Media Services team announced a new tool, namely the Azure Media Services Explorer Tool.

The Azure Media Services Explorer Tool is a Windows Forms tool based on the Azure Media SDKs that can be used by non-developers to test media workflows, monitor activities on their Azure Media Services accounts, or do just about anything that the full API allows you to do today without writing a line of code.

What’s even better is that the full source code for this tool is published to GitHub which can really help you better learn the APIs and integrate features into your own applications.
