An index is a basic unit for organizing and storing your video data (video embeddings and metadata). Indexes facilitate information retrieval and processing.

You can use indexes to group related videos. For example, if you want to upload multiple videos from a car race, you can create a single index and upload all the videos to it.

You can manage your indexes from the Indexes page.
