AngelCam clip API
A clip is a permanent, downloadable excerpt of recorded footage. Unlike a recording stream — which is a temporary playback session — a clip is processed into a file that can be downloaded or shared with others.**Prerequisite:** The camera must have the Cloud Recording service active. If not, recording endpoints return 404.## Creating a clip1. **Check available footage.** Use [`recording/{recording_id}/timeline/`](#operation/my-cameras-recording-timeline) to confirm that footage exists for the time range you want.2. **Submit the clip request** via [`POST cameras/{camera_id}/clips/`](#operation/my-cameras-clips-create) with a `name`, `start`, and `end`. The maximum clip length is **3 hours**.3. **Poll for completion.** Clip processing is asynchronous. Status progresses from `PENDING` → `BUILDING` → `READY` (or `ERROR`). Poll [`cameras/{camera_id}/clips/{clip_id}/`](#operation/my-cameras-clips-detail) until the status is `READY`.4. **Download or share.** A `READY` clip includes a `download_url` (a time-limited direct download link) and a `sharing_token` for unauthenticated sharing via the clip share endpoint.
