# Preview Clip

`GET /api/admin/social/preview/card.mp4`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://api.getcheapgames.com` (the document declares no server; this is the origin it was published from)
- URL: `https://api.getcheapgames.com/api/admin/social/preview/card.mp4`
- Auth: none declared

The clip that preview would carry with a video template.

Rendered on request and kept under the hash of its inputs (gcg.social.clips):
a clip takes seconds to make, and the picker asks for every template of
one game at once. The response itself is never cached — the price in it
is today's.
