Use Blotato API

Actions5

Overview

This node integrates with the Blotato API to manage video content. Specifically, for the Video - Delete operation, it allows users to delete a video by its unique ID. This is useful in workflows where you need to programmatically remove videos from your Blotato account, such as cleaning up outdated or unwanted content automatically.

Practical examples:

  • Automatically deleting videos after a certain event or time period.
  • Removing test or draft videos created during automated content generation.
  • Managing storage and quota by deleting unused videos.

Properties

Name Meaning
Video ID The unique identifier of the video to be deleted. Example format: 123e4567-e89b-12d3-a456-426614174000

Output

The output JSON contains a confirmation of the deletion operation:

  • success: A boolean indicating if the deletion was successful (true).
  • message: A string message confirming the video ID that was deleted successfully.

Example output JSON:

{
  "success": true,
  "message": "Video ID 123e4567-e89b-12d3-a456-426614174000 deleted successfully"
}

No binary data is output by this operation.

Dependencies

  • Requires an API key credential for authenticating with the Blotato API.
  • The node uses the Blotato API endpoint /v2/videos/{videoId} with HTTP DELETE method.
  • The base URL for the API server is obtained from the configured credentials.
  • No additional external dependencies are required.

Troubleshooting

  • Missing Video ID: If the Video ID property is empty or not provided, the node will throw an error stating that the Video ID is required.
  • API Errors: If the API call fails (e.g., invalid ID, network issues, insufficient permissions), the node will throw an error with details from the API response.
  • Continue on Fail: If enabled, errors will be returned as part of the output JSON with error details instead of stopping execution.
  • Invalid Video ID Format: Ensure the Video ID matches the expected UUID-like format; otherwise, the API may reject the request.
