Media still being generated in the editor is omitted. ## OpenAPI ````yaml /openapi.json get /v1/library openapi: 3.0.3 info: description: >- The Tella Public API allows you to programmatically access your videos and playlists, including transcripts, chapters, and thumbnails. ## Authentication All requests require a Bearer token in the Authorization header: ``` Authorization: Bearer tella_pk_xxxxx... ``` API keys can be generated in your Tella workspace settings. ## Rate Limiting The API is rate-limited to 100 requests per minute per organization. Rate limit information is returned in response headers: - `X-RateLimit-Limit`: Maximum requests per window - `X-RateLimit-Remaining`: Remaining requests in current window - `X-RateLimit-Reset`: Unix timestamp when the window resets title: Tella Public API version: 1.0.0 servers: - description: Production url: https://api.tella.com security: [] tags: - description: Video operations name: Videos - description: Sections of a video name: Clips - description: Playlist operations name: Playlists - description: Sidebar groups for organizing playlists name: Playlist Groups - description: Tags for categorizing and filtering videos name: Tags - description: Personal, workspace, and default video backgrounds name: Backgrounds - description: >- Reusable media saved to a workspace — the same items the editor's media panels show name: Library - description: Webhook endpoint management name: Webhooks paths: /v1/library: get: tags: - Library summary: List library items description: >- Returns a page of reusable media saved to the library — images, videos, sound effects, music and LUTs — for one scope. `video` and `sound-effect` items include a `sourceId` you can pass anywhere a source is accepted; other types include a hosted `url`.

Treat it as a target rather than an exact count: pages are read from storage before unlistable items are filtered out, and cursors address whole storage pages, so a response may contain somewhat more than `limit`. Returning the extra items is deliberate — trimming them would drop them, because the cursor has already moved past. in: query name: limit schema: description: >- Items per page (1-60, default 24).
