When the preview looks right, you can export the final video or keep editing it in the Studio editor. This doc shows how to export, open a copy in the editor, and come back to your video later.


Export the video

To make the final video file:

  1. On the Preview tab, click Export video.

  2. The Export Setting window shows the Predicted video duration and the Video credits needed. Review them.

  3. Click Export video in the window to start, or Cancel to go back.

The Export Setting window in Video Agent

While it exports, the button shows Exporting… and the panel says “The export keeps going if you leave this screen.”

When it is done, the agent says “Your video is ready.” Click Download in the chat or on the Preview tab to save the file. You can also click View on dashboard in the chat.

Note: Exporting uses video credits. The export keeps going if you leave this screen. When it is done, the video appears on your dashboard.

After you export, the button changes:

  • Export again: export this version again after you change it. Until you change something, the button is off and the panel says “No changes since the last export.”

  • Export previous version: shown when you open an older version and a newer version has its own preview, for example “Export previous version (v1)”.

Edit in the Studio editor

To keep editing your video in the editor:

  1. On the Preview tab, click Editor.

  2. Video Agent makes a copy of the video as a regular project and opens it in the editor.

  3. Edit the copy as you like. Your Video Agent conversation and versions don't change.

After you export, Editor opens the latest export in the editor. The agent says “Changes made there do not come back to this chat.” and adds an Open the editor copy link.

After you make a copy, click ▾ next to Editor (More editor options) to choose:

  • Open the latest export in the editor: shown after you export.

  • Open editor edits: shown after you export, if you changed a copy in the editor.

  • New editor copy: shown before you export. Makes another copy with the latest changes from this chat.

Note: Videos that use generative video clips can't be opened in the editor.

Reopen a video later

To come back to a video:

  1. Open Video Agent and click the conversation in Conversation history on the left.

  2. Or open the project from the dashboard. On a Video Agent project card, use Versions to pick a version.

💡 Tip: If you edited the video in the editor and exported it again later, Video Agent asks which one to open. Choose Open my edits or Open the latest export. Your edits are not deleted.
