Example Use Cases

These are example ways Snow can use Amara when building apps with you. This list is meant to show examples, not document every possible capability. Connecting an account does not make Snow run these automatically on its own.

Add Subtitle Note

Adds a note/comment to a specific subtitle language for a video. Notes are used for collaboration and providing feedback on subtitles during the editing process. Requires a valid video ID and language code. Use this tool to document issues, provide suggestions, or communicate with other subtitle editors.

Add Video URL

Tool to add a new URL to a video, allowing association with multiple video providers (YouTube, Vimeo, etc.). Use when you need to add alternative URLs for the same video content on different platforms.

Create Subtitle Language

Creates a new subtitle language track for an Amara video. This is the first step before adding or uploading subtitles - you must create the language track before you can add subtitle content. Each video can have multiple subtitle languages, but you cannot create the same language twice for the same video. Use list_subtitle_languages to check existing languages before creating a new one.

Create Subtitles

Tool to create new subtitles for a video in a specific language. Accepts subtitle data in multiple formats (SRT, VTT, DFXP, etc.) either as a string or via URL. The subtitle language must already exist for the video - use create_subtitle_language first if needed. Use when you need to add subtitle content to a video.

Create Video

Tool to add a new video to Amara. Use when you need to create a video entry from a URL. Supports URLs from YouTube, Vimeo, Dailymotion, or direct video file URLs.

Delete Video URL

Tool to remove a video URL from a video. Use when you need to delete an unwanted or incorrect URL from a video's list of URLs. The video must have at least one other URL remaining.

Fetch Subtitles Data

Fetch subtitle data for a video in a specific language. Returns a list of subtitle segments with start/end timestamps and text content. Use this after obtaining a video ID (from List Videos) and confirming available language codes (from List Subtitle Languages).

Get Activity

Tool to retrieve detailed information about a specific activity by its ID. Use when you need to fetch metadata for a particular activity event.

Get Subtitle Language Details

Tool to retrieve details for a single subtitle language. Use when you have video ID and language code and need metadata about that language track.

Get Team Details

Tool to get details on a specific team by slug. Use when you need metadata for a single team.
