Generate AD Video

Pick one of the two simple flows below to generate audio description video.

​
1. Using a Video from public URL

Upload from a public URL and generate in one step. 
curl -X POST https://api.viddyscribe.com/enterprise/api/generate_ad_video \
  -H "X-API-Key: vsk_your_api_key_here" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "input": {
      "type": "url",
      "url": "https://example.com/video.mp4"
    },
    "generation_config": {
      "language": "en-US",
      "voice": "Achernar",
      "ad_type": "extended_ad"
    }
  }'
Response: 
{
  "job_id": "task_abc123xyz",
  "status": "queued",
  "media_id": "550e8400-e29b-41d4-a716-446655440000"
}
Use the job_id to poll get_results for completion.

​
2. Using a Video from local file

Upload a local file and generate in one step. 
curl -X POST https://api.viddyscribe.com/enterprise/api/generate_ad_video \
  -H "X-API-Key: vsk_your_api_key_here" \
  -F 'input={"type": "file"}' \
  -F "[email protected]" \
  -F 'generation_config={"language": "en-US", "voice": "Achernar", "ad_type": "extended_ad"}'
Response: 
{
  "job_id": "task_def456uvw",
  "status": "queued",
  "media_id": "660f9511-f30c-52e5-b827-557766551111"
}
Use the job_id to poll get_results for completion. On success, video_signed_url contains the link to the generated video.

​
Tips

  • Prefer short public URLs where possible.
  • Set language to a BCP‑47 tag like en-US.
  • Use ad_type of extended_ad for fuller descriptions or standard_ad for concise ones.

​
Retrieve Results

Use the job_id from the previous step to fetch results: 
curl -X GET "https://api.viddyscribe.com/enterprise/api/get_results?job_id=TASK_ID" \
  -H "X-API-Key: vsk_your_api_key_here"
Example successful response for video jobs: 
{
  "job_id": "task_abc123xyz",
  "status": "done",
  "video_signed_url": "https://storage.googleapis.com/bucket/path/to/video.mp4?X-Goog-Signature=...",
  "audio_signed_url": "https://storage.googleapis.com/bucket/path/to/audio.wav?X-Goog-Signature=...",
