Steps
Confirm your app is on the ChimeSdkMediaPipelines namespace, which is required for live-connector pipelines
Call CreateMediaLiveConnectorPipeline (POST /sdk-media-live-connector-pipelines) with a Sinks entry using RTMPConfiguration (Url, AudioChannels, AudioSampleRate)
Set the Sources entry to a ChimeSdkMeetingLiveConnectorConfiguration referencing the meeting, choosing a composited video layout (e.g. GridViewConfiguration or HorizontalLayoutConfiguration)
Pass a unique ClientRequestToken for idempotency
Confirm no other live-connector pipeline is already active for the meeting before creating a new one, since Chime enforces a one-per-meeting limit
Known gotchas
Chime SDK allows only one live-connector pipeline per meeting at a time — a second create call for the same meeting fails
The layout configuration determines how participant video is composited into the single outgoing RTMP stream; there's no per-participant RTMP output
Requests use standard AWS SigV4 signing, not a bearer/API-key scheme
