Can my agent create a talking avatar using a custom voice ID?

Yes. Use the 'create_talk' tool and specify the TTS provider (microsoft or amazon) and the exact voice ID. The agent will orchestrate the request to generate an avatar that speaks your script with that specific vocal identity.

How do I use a custom image as the source for my talking avatar?

First, use the 'upload_image' tool with a publicly accessible URL of your face image. The agent will upload it to D-ID and return a new internal URL which you can then pass as the 'source_url' in 'create_talk'.

Can I check my remaining D-ID credits through the agent?

Absolutely. Use the 'get_credits' tool. Your agent will pull your current balance and plan info directly from D-ID, helping you manage your video generation limits and quotas through natural conversation.
