# Video generation

`POST /v1/videos/generations` — Generate a short 720p clip from a text prompt.

- Base URL: https://eroq.ai/v1
- Auth: `Authorization: Bearer eroq_sk_…` (create keys at https://eroq.ai/dashboard/keys)
- Credits: 100 for 5s · 180 for 10s · + storage with store: true

Motion One renders 5 or 10 second clips. Video is slow by nature: the request holds until the clip is ready, typically one to five minutes — set your HTTP client timeout accordingly.

The clip returns inline as base64 MP4 and is not retained — or set `store: true` to persist it to the eroq Store in the same call and receive a durable CDN URL instead, with the Store's rate (2 credits / started 10MB) charged on top.

## Request body

| Field | Type | Required | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `prompt` | string | yes | The scene to render. |
| `model` | string | no | Only `eroq-motion-one` today. |
| `duration` | string | no | `5s` (default) or `10s`. |
| `store` | boolean | no | Persist to the eroq Store and answer with a CDN URL. +2 credits per started 10MB. Default `false`. |
