Short-form video workflows

Make each short-form render a job.

Turn approved campaign data into asynchronous render requests, then resume your workflow when the MP4 callback arrives.

Design for portrait platforms

YouTube Shorts, TikTok, and Instagram Reels commonly use portrait compositions. If your selected template supports it, target 1080×1920, keep hook text inside safe areas, and validate music or voice timing against the final encode.

Format and layer behavior depend on the composition used. Rendofy's public API contract does not guarantee a universal 9:16 preset, built-in audio-visual synchronization controls, or a platform-specific hook-text layer.

Connect a source to a render callback

Use Airtable, n8n, or your own service to choose records and construct the supported JSON payload. Submit one render job per output, keep outstanding requests within account concurrency, and store each returned job_id with its source record.

Source record → validate media and copy → POST JSON to Rendofy
             → store job_id → receive callback → save video_url

Callback delivery keeps the automation request separate from render time. A successful intake returns status: queued and a job_id; the completed callback contains the finished video_url.

Inspect one output before scaling

Check frame dimensions, safe areas, captions, audio sync, and upload requirements on an actual MP4. The verified RSS example currently demonstrates a 1920×1080 result, so it should not be treated as proof of a portrait export.
