id returned by the Create Video Task endpoint as the path parameter, and keep polling until status is "completed" or "failed".
VEO video generation is asynchronous. All output videos have a fixed duration of 8 seconds, regardless of the model or input parameters used.
Endpoint
Path Parameters
The unique task identifier returned by the Create Video Task endpoint (e.g.
vgen_abc123def456).Response Fields
Unique identifier of the video generation task.
Object type. Always
"video".Unix timestamp (seconds) of when the task was created.
The VEO model used for generation (e.g.
"veo_3_1_fast").Current task status:
queued— task is in the queue, waiting to be processedprocessing— the VEO model is actively generating the videocompleted— generation succeeded;video_urlis populatedfailed— generation failed; seeerrorfor details
A direct download URL for the generated MP4 video. Only present when
status is "completed". The URL is valid for 24 hours — download and store the video before it expires.The actual output duration of the video in seconds. VEO always produces 8-second videos. Only present when
status is "completed".Error message describing why the task failed. Only present when
status is "failed".Status Flow
| Step | Status | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | queued | Task created and added to the processing queue |
| 2 | processing | VEO model is generating the video |
| 3 | completed | Video is ready; retrieve it via video_url |
| — | failed | An error occurred; inspect the error field |
Polling Recommendations
- Stop polling as soon as
statusis"completed"or"failed". - Avoid polling more frequently than every 30 seconds to prevent rate limiting.
Generation Time Estimates
