Synthesia API Videos Reference | Manage and Create AI Videos

Videos describe the content that you've created with Synthesia. Using the API, you're able to generate new videos either from scratch or using one of your existing Synthesia templates.

The Video object contains the necessary information for interacting with your content. Crucially, the video status describes the processing status and governs the availability of some of the other object attributes.
