## Description

Securely connect your AI agents and chatbots (Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, etc) with Creatomate MCP or direct API to create video renders, manage templates, check render status, and generate dynamic images through natural language.

## Summary

Creatomate is an API for generating automated videos, images, GIFs, and reusable media templates.
Use it to turn structured data into polished visual content at scale.

## Categories

- design & creative tools

## Toolkit Details

- Tools: 7

## Images

- Logo: https://logos.composio.dev/api/creatomate

## Authentication

- **Api Key**
  - Type: `api_key`
  - Description: Api Key authentication for Creatomate.
  - Setup:
    - Configure Api Key credentials for Creatomate.
    - Use the credentials when creating an auth config in Composio.

## Suggested Prompts

- Create product video from template
- List recent Creatomate render statuses
- Generate social ads from templates

## Supported Tools

| Tool slug | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `CREATOMATE_CREATE_RENDER` | Create Render | Start one asynchronous image, video, or GIF render from either a template or a direct RenderScript. The call consumes render credits and returns the initial status; use Get Render to check completion. |
| `CREATOMATE_CREATE_TEMPLATE` | Create Template | Create a reusable project template from a RenderScript without starting a render, returning the saved template and any non-fatal warnings. |
| `CREATOMATE_DELETE_TEMPLATE` | Delete Template | Permanently delete one project template. Existing renders created from the template are unaffected. |
| `CREATOMATE_GET_RENDER` | Get Render | Return the current status and available output metadata for one asynchronous render; terminal statuses are succeeded and failed. |
| `CREATOMATE_GET_TEMPLATE` | Get Template | Return one project template including its complete RenderScript source. |
| `CREATOMATE_LIST_TEMPLATES` | List Templates | Return metadata for every template in the connected project, optionally filtered by any of the supplied comma-separated tags; RenderScript source is not included. |
| `CREATOMATE_UPDATE_TEMPLATE` | Update Template | Partially update a template's name, replacement tag list, or complete replacement RenderScript source; omitted fields remain unchanged. |

## Installation and MCP Setup

### Path 1: SDK Installation

#### Path 1, Step 1: Install Composio

Install the Composio SDK, the OpenAI provider, and the OpenAI SDK
```python
pip install composio composio_openai openai
```

```typescript
npm install @composio/core @composio/openai openai
```

#### Path 1, Step 2: Create a Composio session

Initialize Composio with the OpenAI Responses provider and create a session scoped to Creatomate
```python
import json
from openai import OpenAI
from composio import Composio
from composio_openai import OpenAIResponsesProvider

composio = Composio(provider=OpenAIResponsesProvider())
client = OpenAI()

session = composio.create(user_id="your-user-id", toolkits=["creatomate"])
tools = session.tools()
```

```typescript
import OpenAI from "openai";
import { Composio } from "@composio/core";
import { OpenAIResponsesProvider } from "@composio/openai";

const composio = new Composio({ provider: new OpenAIResponsesProvider() });
const client = new OpenAI();

const session = await composio.create("your-user-id", { toolkits: ["creatomate"] });
const tools = await session.tools();
```

#### Path 1, Step 3: Run Creatomate tools with your agent

Send a request, execute the Creatomate tool calls through the session, and print the final answer
```python
response = client.responses.create(
    model="gpt-5.6-sol",
    tools=tools,
    input=[{"role": "user", "content": "List my recent Creatomate renders and show their status"}],
)

while True:
    tool_calls = [o for o in response.output if o.type == "function_call"]
    if not tool_calls:
        break
    results = composio.provider.handle_tool_calls(response=response, session=session)
    response = client.responses.create(
        model="gpt-5.6-sol",
        tools=tools,
        previous_response_id=response.id,
        input=[
            {"type": "function_call_output", "call_id": call.call_id, "output": json.dumps(results[i])}
            for i, call in enumerate(tool_calls)
        ],
    )

print(response.output_text)
```

```typescript
let response = await client.responses.create({
  model: "gpt-5.6-sol",
  tools,
  input: [{ role: "user", content: "List my recent Creatomate renders and show their status" }],
});

while (response.output.some((o) => o.type === "function_call")) {
  const outputs = await composio.provider.handleToolCalls(session, response.output);
  response = await client.responses.create({
    model: "gpt-5.6-sol",
    tools,
    previous_response_id: response.id,
    input: outputs,
  });
}

console.log(response.output_text);
```

### Path 2: MCP Server Setup

#### Path 2, Step 1: Install Composio

Install the Composio SDK and your agent framework
```python
pip install composio claude-agent-sdk
```

```typescript
npm install @composio/core ai @ai-sdk/mcp @ai-sdk/openai
```

#### Path 2, Step 2: Create a session with MCP enabled

Create a session scoped to Creatomate and read its MCP URL and headers
```python
from composio import Composio

composio = Composio()
session = composio.create(user_id="your-user-id", toolkits=["creatomate"], mcp=True)
```

```typescript
import { Composio } from "@composio/core";

const composio = new Composio();
const { mcp } = await composio.create("your-user-id", {
  toolkits: ["creatomate"],
  mcp: true,
});
```

#### Path 2, Step 3: Connect your agent to the MCP server

Pass the session's MCP URL and headers to your agent and run a Creatomate request
```python
import asyncio
from claude_agent_sdk import ClaudeSDKClient, ClaudeAgentOptions, AssistantMessage, TextBlock

options = ClaudeAgentOptions(
    mcp_servers={
        "composio": {
            "type": "http",
            "url": session.mcp.url,
            "headers": session.mcp.headers,
        }
    },
    system_prompt="You are a helpful assistant with access to Creatomate tools.",
    tools=[],
    allowed_tools=["mcp__composio__*"],
)

async def main():
    async with ClaudeSDKClient(options=options) as client:
        await client.query("List my recent Creatomate renders and show their status")
        async for message in client.receive_response():
            if isinstance(message, AssistantMessage):
                for block in message.content:
                    if isinstance(block, TextBlock):
                        print(block.text)

asyncio.run(main())
```

```typescript
import { createMCPClient } from "@ai-sdk/mcp";
import { openai } from "@ai-sdk/openai";
import { generateText, stepCountIs } from "ai";

const client = await createMCPClient({
  transport: { type: "http", url: mcp.url, headers: mcp.headers },
});

const { text } = await generateText({
  model: openai("gpt-5.6-sol"),
  tools: await client.tools(),
  prompt: "List my recent Creatomate renders and show their status",
  stopWhen: stepCountIs(10),
});

console.log(text);
await client.close();
```

## Why Use Composio?

- Central place to manage, scope, and revoke Creatomate access
- Per user and per environment credentials so your media automation stays clean and safe

### 3. Agent Optimized Design

- Tools are tuned for AI agents, so prompts like “create a product video from this template” map cleanly to Creatomate actions
- Comprehensive execution logs so you can see which render was created, when it ran, and on whose behalf

### 4. Enterprise Grade Security
