Positions are percentages of the screen recording's dimensions — the same coordinate space as zoom focus points. Events during cut-out footage are dropped, and move events are sampled (default one per 100ms, `intervalMs=0` for every event). Use `types=clicks` to return only clicks. Returns an empty list when the recording has no mouse data (camera-only clips, uploads, older recorder versions). ## OpenAPI ````yaml /openapi.json get /v1/videos/{id}/clips/{clipId}/mouse-events openapi: 3.0.3 info: description: >- The Tella Public API allows you to programmatically access your videos and playlists, including transcripts, chapters, and thumbnails. ## Authentication All requests require a Bearer token in the Authorization header: ``` Authorization: Bearer tella_pk_xxxxx... ``` API keys can be generated in your Tella workspace settings. ## Rate Limiting The API is rate-limited to 100 requests per minute per user within a workspace. Rate limit information is returned in response headers: - `RateLimit-Policy`: Named quota, request limit, and window in seconds - `RateLimit`: Remaining quota and seconds until reset - `X-RateLimit-Limit`: Maximum requests per window - `X-RateLimit-Remaining`: Remaining requests in current window - `X-RateLimit-Reset`: Unix timestamp in milliseconds when the window resets A `429 Too Many Requests` response also includes `Retry-After` in seconds. title: Tella Public API version: 1.0.0 servers: - description: Production url: https://api.tella.com security: [] tags: - description: Video operations name: Videos - description: Sections of a video name: Clips - description: Playlist operations name: Playlists - description: Sidebar groups for organizing playlists name: Playlist Groups - description: Tags for categorizing and filtering videos name: Tags - description: Personal, workspace, and default video backgrounds name: Backgrounds - description: >- Reusable media saved to a workspace, plus Tella's curated sound effect catalog — the same items the editor's media panels show name: Library - description: Webhook endpoint management name: Webhooks externalDocs: description: API versioning and deprecation policy url: https://www.tella.com/docs/versioning paths: /v1/videos/{id}/clips/{clipId}/mouse-events: get: tags: - Clips summary: List mouse events on a clip description: >- Returns the cursor path and clicks recorded with the clip's screen recording, mapped onto the clip's playback timeline (cuts applied).
