FAQPage Schema

How do I automate Sora video generation from structured prompts?▼

You can automate Sora video generation by providing a structured prompt to the bundled CLI or API flows. This enforces deterministic defaults for model, size, and duration constraints, ensuring consistent asset delivery without manual steps.

Can I batch render multiple videos for an offline pipeline?▼

Yes, you can batch render and queue multiple videos for studio pipelines or offline processing. The workflow manages Sora video jobs to reduce manual orchestration and ensure consistent output across multiple renders.

Do I need an OpenAI API key to generate Sora videos?▼

Yes, you need an OPENAI_API_KEY environment variable set to make live calls. The workflow requires this key to authenticate and process Sora video generation, editing, and extension requests through the API.

How do I create character references for Sora video editing?▼

Create reusable character references using the structured prompt workflow, which supports up to two characters per generation. This allows you to maintain consistency when editing or extending existing video clips.

What are the limitations when generating videos with the Sora workflow?▼
