Overview

Base URL: https://app.videco.io

Who can use it: Pro and Business (and AppSumo LTD with API access). Free cannot generate API keys.

projectId: Query or body projectId is an optional UUID. If omitted, Videco uses the user’s current project. API keys have no email; current project still resolves from membership.

In-app OpenAPI also lives at https://app.videco.io/openapi.yaml. Prefer this page when they differ (for example around projectId).

Authentication
