Colossyan Video Generation API

openapi: 3.0.1
info:
  title: Colossyan Avatars Video Generation API
  description: REST API for the Colossyan AI avatar and video generation platform. Generate studio-quality videos from a script combined with AI avatars and voices via asynchronous video-generation jobs, list avatars/presenters and voices, create custom Instant avatars, generate from templates, and receive completion notifications via webhook callbacks. All requests and responses use JSON. API access requires a Business or Enterprise plan; the API token is found in the workspace Settings. Endpoint paths, request fields, and response fields below reflect Colossyan's public documentation (docs.colossyan.com); exact JSON schemas are not fully published, so request and response bodies are described as free-form objects where the schema is not documented.
