check timeline
Check a cut before rendering: one timeline, or every timeline of a project or a list in one call, grouped by timeline. Structure, which edit_timeline also returns with each edit: stretches that render black, a clip buried under a full-frame one, a background that ends under the clip over it, a trim past the end of its file, missing media, muted sound, a shot of six frames or fewer, a select that splits a word, text too small, off the frame, under a platform’s buttons or over other text, and on clips auto_reframe has read a crop or tile that shows nobody and text over a face. Sound, measured once per file and kept: each clip’s loudness and peak over the seconds it plays (lufs_scope, peak_scope: file where only the whole file’s was kept), as the timeline plays it, the clips that will distort, and whether the speech sits where platforms normalise to; audio: false skips it. covered says what was and was not checked. frames adds a storyboard picture of one timeline. Free, except measuring sound the first time and frames drawn in the cloud: cloud processing.
Authorizations
An API key (es_live_…) from Settings, under API keys, or an OAuth access token.
Headers
Retry a paid dispatch safely: the same key returns the job already dispatched instead of charging again.
The workspace this one call acts in, when it is not the default: for a key or a connected agent, one of the workspaces the user allowed it.
Body
The timeline id; a project's id checks every timeline in it.
Timelines to check in one call, in place of timeline_id; 25 a call.
1 - 100 elementsnext_cursor from an earlier call: checks the timelines after it. With next_cursor, timelines remain unchecked and ok is false.
Measure the sound too. Default true; false checks the structure alone.
Where it plays, which sets the loudness the speech is read against: youtube, instagram and tiktok -14 LUFS, podcast -16, broadcast -23. Default youtube.
youtube, instagram, tiktok, podcast, broadcast One timeline only. A storyboard in one picture: this many frames spread evenly, or "clips" for one at the middle of each clip and title card (up to 20; storyboard.not_drawn_clips names the rest).
