Rate limit information is returned in response headers: - `RateLimit-Policy`: Named quota, request limit, and window in seconds - `RateLimit`: Remaining quota and seconds until reset - `X-RateLimit-Limit`: Maximum requests per window - `X-RateLimit-Remaining`: Remaining requests in current window - `X-RateLimit-Reset`: Unix timestamp in milliseconds when the window resets A `429 Too Many Requests` response also includes `Retry-After` in seconds. 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: >- Viewing analytics for a video or across the workspace: plays, watch time, retention, geography, referrers name: Analytics - description: Personal, workspace, and default video backgrounds name: Backgrounds - description: >- Reusable media saved to a workspace, plus Tella's curated sound effect and background music catalogs — the same items the editor's media panels show name: Library - description: Webhook endpoint management name: Webhooks externalDocs: description: API versioning and deprecation policy url: https://www.tella.com/docs/versioning paths: /v1/videos: get: tags: - Videos summary: List all videos description: >- Returns a paginated list of all videos for the authenticated user.
