How to create proper structure
The structure of the video is quite complex, so If you want to create/update the structure of the slide from API, the best way to do it would be to create the layout in the Elai UI, retrieve it using GET /videos/:videoId, and use the structure from response JSON body.
Quick request example
curl --request POST \
--url https://apis.elai.io/api/v1/videos \
--header 'Accept: application/json' \
--header 'Authorization: Bearer API_TOKEN' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--data @- <<EOF
