Video
Overview
The Video node represents a video artifact within a workflow — a typed container that carries a resolved video reference ({ url, mimeType }) between nodes. Use it to hold or pass through video data that originated from an upstream text_to_video generation, an object_storage_download, or any other node that produces a video output type. The node does not generate or transform video; it simply surfaces the artifact with its URL and MIME type so downstream nodes such as video_analyze, media_convert, or object_storage_upload can consume it via a typed connection. Connecting a non-video source to a Video node's input produces a type-compatibility warning in Workflow Studio.
Configuration
| Field | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
url | string | No | Static video URL to inject when no upstream node supplies one. Accepts https:// or signed storage URLs. Ignored if an upstream video port is connected. |
mimeType | enum | No | MIME type of the video artifact (e.g. video/mp4, video/webm). Defaults to video/mp4. Used when the upstream source does not include MIME metadata. |
label | string | No | Human-readable label shown in Workflow Studio for this artifact node. Does not affect execution. |
storageKey | string | No | Optional media.objects key that references a persisted video in object storage. When set, the node resolves a signed URL at execution time instead of using the raw url field. |
Inputs
| Port | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
video | video | Upstream video artifact ({ url: string, mimeType: string }) from a generator node such as text_to_video or a storage download. Optional when a static url is configured. |
Outputs
| Port | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
video | video | Resolved video artifact object ({ url: string, mimeType: string }) ready for downstream consumption. |
error | error | Emitted when the video URL cannot be resolved or the upstream artifact is missing. Route to an error_catch node to handle gracefully. |
