How do I retrieve a HeyGen video result?
Short answer: You can get heygen video in HeyGen by hand from its own interface, but it won’t repeat itself. On TinyCommand, add the HeyGen Get HeyGen Video action to a workflow, map its 1 input from any upstream app, and it runs automatically every time the trigger fires. No code, and a free tier to start.

FAQ
Questions about Get HeyGen Video.
What does the Get HeyGen Video action do in HeyGen?
Polls a video generation by ID; returns the MP4 URL once status is completed. Poll every 30-60 seconds or configure a callback URL on Create Video for push notification.
What inputs does Get HeyGen Video require?
Required: Video ID. Every input accepts a static value or a variable from any upstream node in your workflow.
Can I use dynamic inputs from earlier workflow nodes?
Yes. Any field on this action can pull values from upstream nodes, whether that's a form response, a trigger payload, an AI output, or a lookup result.
What happens if HeyGen returns an error?
The run history shows the failed step with its input and the error message HeyGen returned, so you can fix the input and run the workflow again. Automatic retries are built into HTTP steps only, where you can also set your own retry count and delay.
Does Get HeyGen Video support batch operations?
Run Get HeyGen Video inside a loop to process each item in an array. TinyCommand does not throttle calls for you, so for large arrays add a Delay step if you need to stay within HeyGen's rate limits.
