Video

Video transformation is a resource-intensive operation, so it takes a significant amount of time and heavily depends on the size of the original file. It is recommended to use asynchronous transformation for video processing.

If the video file has not yet been transformed, a response with a 423 status code will be sent, indicating that the file is not yet ready.
