Frequently asked questions
How do I find my api.video API Key?
Log in to your account, navigate to the API Keys section in your dashboard, and copy your unique Production API Key.
Can I get a direct player link via AI?
Yes! The get_video_details tool retrieves high-fidelity asset URLs including the player, mp4 source, and thumbnails for any specific video.
How do I check video analytics?
Use the get_video_analytics tool and specify the metric (e.g., 'play') and aggregation (e.g., 'total') to retrieve real-time performance data.
How does Mastra AI connect to MCP servers?
Create an MCPClient with the server URL and pass it to your agent. Mastra discovers all tools and makes them available with full TypeScript types.
Can Mastra agents use tools from multiple servers?
Yes. Pass multiple MCP clients to the agent constructor. Mastra merges all tool schemas and the agent can call any tool from any server.
Does Mastra support workflow orchestration?
Yes. Mastra has a built-in workflow engine that lets you chain MCP tool calls with branching logic, error handling, and parallel execution.
