Quick Start

1. Get your API key — go to your Profile page and create a key. Requires Creator or Pro plan.

2. Create a render

curl -X POST https://devmotion.app/api/v1/renders \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer dm_live_YOUR_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "template_id": "laptop-3d-intro",
    "modifications": [
      { "layer": "Browser", "property": "props.url",
        "value": "https://yoursite.com" }
    ],
    "webhook_url": "https://yourserver.com/webhook"
  }'

3. Get the result — poll GET /renders/:id or wait for the webhook callback with the video URL.

{
  "id": "render_abc123",
  "status": "rendering",
  "output_url": null,
  "webhook_url": "https://yourserver.com/webhook",
  "metadata": null,
  "created_at": "2025-01-15T10:30:00Z"
}

Rendering is asynchronous. The response is 202 Accepted immediately; output_url is populated when the render completes.
