Create Custom DASH Manifest

post
https://api.bitmovin.com/v1/encoding/manifests/dash

A Custom DASH Manifest gives you full control over its contents. Add Periods, Adaptation Sets, Representations, Content Protections or Custom XML Elements via the respective endpoints. If you need a simpler solution, create a Default Manifest resource instead. See documentation page for a comparison
