authenticate, send one request, and get back an MP4
HeyGen, developer documentation: quick start
- Page headerOne request returns an MP4
1Tools with the same reading
BytePlus ModelArk, LTX, OpenAI Sora, Synthesia and Wan (Alibaba Cloud) also document “MP4”, which makes 6 tools with this reading.
Developer documentation changes often; the live page has the final say.
2Why it matters in a pipeline
Format decides what happens next. MP4 with H.264 plays anywhere; EXR carries the range a colourist needs; an alpha channel lets a shot sit over other footage without a mask.
