Problem: I’m creating a MediaConvert job with multiple output groups (audio and thumbnail) and trying to access the output file paths using the GetJob command after completion. According to the AWS Documentation, the COMPLETE event should contain outputFilePaths inside outputGroupDetails.outputDetails, but I can’t access these paths from the GetJob response.

My initial Job Config

const jobSettings = {
  Queue: process.env.MEDIACONVERT_QUEUE_ARN,
  Role: process.env.MEDIACONVERT_ROLE_ARN,
  StatusUpdateInterval: "SECONDS_10",
  Settings: {
    OutputGroups: [
      {
        Name: "Audio",
        OutputGroupSettings: {
          Type: "FILE_GROUP_SETTINGS",
          FileGroupSettings: {
            Destination: `s3://${process.env.BUCKET_NAME}/output/audio/`,
          },
        },
        Outputs: [
          {
            ContainerSettings: {
              Container: "RAW",
            },
            AudioDescriptions: [
              {
                CodecSettings: {
                  Codec: "MP3",
                  Mp3Settings: {
                    Bitrate: 64000,
                    Channels: 1,
                    RateControlMode: "CBR",
                    SampleRate: 22050,
                  },
                },
              },
            ],
          },
        ],
      },
      {
        Name: "Thumbnail",
        OutputGroupSettings: {
          Type: "FILE_GROUP_SETTINGS",
          FileGroupSettings: {
            Destination: `s3://${process.env.BUCKET_NAME}/output/thumbnails/`,
          },
        },
        Outputs: [
          {
            ContainerSettings: {
              Container: "RAW",
            },
            VideoDescription: {
              CodecSettings: {
                Codec: "FRAME_CAPTURE",
                FrameCaptureSettings: {
                  MaxCaptures: 1,
                  Quality: 80,
                },
              },
            },
            Extension: ".jpg",
          },
        ],
      },
    ],
  },
};

COMPLETE Job Request

const command = new GetJobCommand({ Id: 'jobId' });
mediaConvert.send(command, (err, data) => {
  if (err) console.log(err, err.stack);
  else {
    const outputGroups = data.Job?.detail?.outputGroupDetails;
    const audioPath = outputGroups?.[0]?.outputDetails?.[0]?.outputFilePaths?.[0];
    const thumbnailPath = outputGroups?.[1]?.outputDetails?.[0]?.outputFilePaths?.[0];
  }
});

The job completes successfully. Files are correctly created in S3 in the expected locations (output/audio/ and output/thumbnails/). BUT outputFilePaths is nowhere to be found in the response structure.

Questions

Is there a specific configuration needed to include outputFilePaths in the job response or am I not deconstructing the response correctly?
