FAQPage Schema
How do I automate Sora video generation using the OpenAI API?

You can automate Sora video generation by coordinating end-to-end workflows through the OpenAI Video API, handling creation, polling, and downloading of video jobs via a bundled CLI. This automates prompt augmentation and input reference handling.

What do I need to set up before batch rendering Sora videos offline?

Before batch rendering Sora videos offline, you must install the OpenAI SDK and ensure your OPENAI_API_KEY environment variable is set. This allows the CLI to authenticate and process offline video jobs.

Can I create and reuse non-human character references across multiple Sora videos?

Yes, you can create reusable non-human character references by generating and managing character IDs. These references can be applied across multiple video generation and editing jobs to maintain consistency.

Does the Sora CLI support editing and extending existing video clips?

Yes, the Sora CLI supports editing and extending existing video clips through the OpenAI Video API. It coordinates job management to apply modifications and extensions to previously generated video content.

What Sora models are supported for video generation and batch processing?

The workflow supports the sora-2 and sora-2-pro models for video generation and batch processing. It includes robust retry and error handling to manage API requests reliably across both model options.
