    Create and edit videos with Motion through a prompt, optional attachments,
    and follow-up edits. New video jobs default to GVA standard. Motion Legacy
    requires eligible existing-account or administrator access. Use GET /engines
    for available choices. Manage owner-scoped automations, schedules, run
    history, and analytics. Automation execution is GVA-only and defaults to
    standard effort.
