Practical guide
Plan a rights-gated clipping API workflow
Start with the source
Separate source validation, job submission, status checks and human review. Keep your API credentials on the server. Use the authenticated API and its published documentation to discover supported request fields rather than embedding a key in a public webpage.
Review before publishing
Submit only footage with documented permission. Treat a refused rights check as a stopped job, not a reason to retry with a different label. Fetch completed results for review before any explicit publishing step. Explore Clipwright and source requirements.
