Title requests

The Title Requests tab within Video Central allows you to view requests for assets for each title, and the fulfillment status of these requests (e.g., completed, missing). This data populates for titles Prime Video expects to receive from you, based on the contract you have signed with us. These requests are automatically generated and added to your account. Additionally, Prime Video provides a CSV report in Video Central available for download. This report is automatically generated daily, and Prime Video overwrites all previous reports, ensuring only the most recent report is available for download. Below is an overview of both the Title Requests UI and the daily report.

Title Requests UI

Within Title Requests, we will consolidate all the title expectations we have for you, so you can easily tell:

  • Missing title part deliveries
  • Deliveries that may have open errors
  • Completed deliveries by title
  • Asset specifications (e.g., HD/SD/4:3 image)
  • Error messages for submitted files
  • Expected delivery dates

Expect to see this information populate in Title Requests within 10 days of signing an agreement with Prime Video and/or within 24 hours of delivering avails.

The Part Request column details what combination of assets are required. For example, you may only be obligated to deliver either subtitles or dubs to fulfill a deal. You may see an and or or indicated in the Part Request column to show what combination is required.

Screenshot of the Request Types section

In the above example, there is a Single request, a Complex: "0 OR 1" request, a Complex: "0 OR 1 OR 2" request, and a Complex: "(0 AND 1) OR 2" request. Please see below for request definitions:

Request Types

Type Definition
Single

Only a single asset type is required to fulfill the request.

Complex: "0 OR 1" request

This request requires either one of two types of assets to fulfill the request. For example, either closed captions or subtitles in the above example would fulfill the request.

Complex: "0 OR 1 OR 2" request

This request requires one of three types of assets to fulfill the request. For example, either dubs, subtitles or closed captions would fulfill the request.

Complex: "(0 AND 1) OR 2" request

This request requires one of two types of assets, but depending on the type of asset delivered, a third asset may be required. For example, this request could be fulfilled by either dubs in English or German. However, if a German dub is provided, a German dub card would be required.

Request Validation

Title Requests includes delivery data to provide asset validation. If you see a red exclamation point next to the delivered asset, click the name of the asset to obtain validation details. This is the same asset validation that displays within Deliveries. If an asset fails validation, redelivery is required.

Request CSV Report

Additionally, Prime Video provides a CSV report in Video Central available for download. This report is automatically generated daily, and Prime Video overwrites all previous reports, ensuring only the most recent report is available for download. This feature will enable you to filter data and send your own custom reports for in-house teams or to generate purchase orders for your post-houses. Because the Requests Report doesn't update dynamically, you may not see the most current information within the report. Please reference the Requests dashboard for the most up-to-date delivery information.
