# Video status and result (poll this)

`GET /v1/videos/{video_id}`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://api.vivideo.ai`
- URL: `https://api.vivideo.ai/v1/videos/{video_id}`
- Auth: HTTP bearer
- TypeScript: <https://skmtc.dev/vivideo/apis/vivideo-api/docs/v1/videos/:video_id/get.ts> (a function with typed inputs; its response is checked against the schema)

Poll while `status` is `queued`/`processing` (respect
`poll_interval_seconds`, typically 5s). Terminal states: `completed`
(with `video_url`) and `failed` (credits auto-refunded). Free previews
stay in `preview` until rendered after an upgrade.
