The sample "Try Me" code still doesn't work on the API reference site. I was told it will work in Python (VC). But I can't get it (code from Heygen AI bot) working there either. When I run this it says:

Video created successfully: {'error': None, 'data': {'video_id': 'ee81024bc5494ff88e008395e3ccab6c'}}

In my projects page I see the attempt "API Video Processing" but it has an "Error" in pink in the lower left.

import requests  
import json

def load_api_key(file_path: str) -> str:  
    with open(file_path, "r") as file:  
        return file.read().strip()

api_key = load_api_key("apikey.txt")

voice_id = 'd7bbcdd6964c47bdaae26decade4a933'  
input_text = "With HeyGen, it is very easy to create talking photo videos."

avatar_id = "Brent_sitting_office_front"  
#voice_id = "ff2ecc8fbdef4273a28bed7b5e35bb57" 

url = '<https://api.heygen.com/v2/video/generate'>  
headers = {  
    'X-Api-Key': api_key,  
    'Content-Type': 'application/json'  
}  
data = {  
    "video_inputs": [  
        {  
            "character": {  
                        "type": "avatar",  
                        "avatar_id": avatar_id,  
                        "avatar_style": "normal"  
            },  
            "voice": {  
                "type": "text",  
                "input_text": input_text,  
                "voice_id": voice_id  
            },  
            "background": {  
                "type": "color",  
                "value": "#FAFAFA"  
            }  
        }  
    ]  
}

response = requests.post(url, headers=headers, data=json.dumps(data))

if response.status_code == 200:  
    print("Video created successfully:", response.json())  
else:  
    print("Failed to create video:", response.status_code, response.text)
