FAQ

Questions HeyGen owners ask.

  • 01

    How do I choose the right avatar for my video?

    Use the list_available_avatars capability 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.

  • 02

    Can I generate a video without specifying an avatar or voice?

    Yes! Use the generate_from_prompt capability (Video Agent). Simply describe what you want, and HeyGen will automatically select the best-matching avatar and voice for your content.

  • 03

    Is it possible to automate personalized videos for multiple customers?

    Absolutely. Use the create_from_template capability 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.
