Frequently asked questions about the HeyGen MCP Server
How do I choose the right avatar for my video?
Use the list_available_avatars tool to browse all options. Your agent will provide the names and unique avatar_id for each character, which you can then use in your generation requests.
Can I generate a video without specifying an avatar or voice?
Yes! Use the generate_from_prompt tool (Video Agent). Simply describe what you want, and HeyGen will automatically select the best-matching avatar and voice for your content.
Is it possible to automate personalized videos for multiple customers?
Absolutely. Use the create_from_template tool by providing a templateId and a set of variables. Your AI agent can iterate through your customer list and trigger unique videos for each person.
