MakeTranscoderServiceConnection(Options)\n\nA factory function to construct an object of type [`TranscoderServiceConnection`](/cpp/docs/reference/video/latest/classgoogle_1_1cloud_1_1video__transcoder__v1_1_1TranscoderServiceConnection). \nThe returned connection object should not be used directly; instead it should be passed as an argument to the constructor of [TranscoderServiceClient](/cpp/docs/reference/video/latest/classgoogle_1_1cloud_1_1video__transcoder__v1_1_1TranscoderServiceClient).\n\nThe optional `options` argument may be used to configure aspects of the returned [`TranscoderServiceConnection`](/cpp/docs/reference/video/latest/classgoogle_1_1cloud_1_1video__transcoder__v1_1_1TranscoderServiceConnection). Expected options are any of the types in the following option lists:\n\n- [`google::cloud::CommonOptionList`](https://cloud.google.com/cpp/docs/reference/common/latest/namespacegoogle_1_1cloud.html)\n- [`google::cloud::GrpcOptionList`](https://cloud.google.com/cpp/docs/reference/common/latest/namespacegoogle_1_1cloud.html)\n- [`google::cloud::UnifiedCredentialsOptionList`](about:invalid#zCSafez)\n- [`google::cloud::video_transcoder_v1::TranscoderServicePolicyOptionList`](about:invalid#zCSafez)\n\n| **Note:** Unexpected options will be ignored. To log unexpected options instead, set `GOOGLE_CLOUD_CPP_ENABLE_CLOG=yes` in the environment.\n\n### MakeDefaultTranscoderServiceConnectionIdempotencyPolicy()"]]
