How long are renders stored?

Every render you create is hosted for up to 30 days, giving your workflow plenty of time to pick up the finished file. Hosted renders don't count toward your storage. After 30 days, a render is automatically cleaned up: its download URL stops working, and it no longer appears in your dashboard or through the API.

If you need your videos or images for longer than 30 days, transfer them to your own storage right after rendering:

  • API: when the webhook notifies you that a render has succeeded, download the file from its url and save it to your own server or cloud storage.
  • Zapier, Make.com, or n8n: add a step to your workflow that uploads the finished file to a storage app, such as Google Drive, Dropbox, or Amazon S3.

The 30-day period applies to the render as a whole; the status endpoint, the snapshot image, and the render's entry in the dashboard's API log all expire along with the file. If your application needs a permanent record of its renders, keep your own.

This only concerns generated output files. The media in your templates and feeds (your uploaded images, videos, and audio clips) is not affected: it remains available for as long as your templates and feeds use it.
