Introducing async analysis endpoints for longer videos

You can now analyze videos up to 2 hours using the new asynchronous analysis endpoints. Previously, the Analyze API only supported synchronous analysis for videos up to 1 hour long.

When to use async analysis:

  • Videos longer than one hour (up to 2 hours)
  • Background processing without blocking your application

When to use sync analysis:

  • Videos up to one hour
  • Immediate results or real-time streaming

For a how-to guide, see the Analyze videos and images page. For complete parameter specifications, see the API reference for async analysis or the SDK reference for Python and Node.js.
