Reference: https://docs.machanirobotics.dev/v-2026-01-16-dev/2026-01-16-dev/latest/timeline-registry-service/generatetimeline ## Request ### Body (application/json) This endpoint expects a GenerateTimelineRequest. - `title` (string, required) — The title of the timeline. - `blocks` (list of GenerateTimelineContentBlock, required) — Content of the timeline. - `blockPauseDuration` (string, optional) — Pause between the blocks of the timeline. - `type` (integer, optional) — Speech type to generate the audio. ## Response ### 200 OK - `timeline` (Timeline, optional) — The generated timelinecle ## Errors ### 400 Bad Request Error Bad Request - `code` (integer, optional) — The status code, which should be an enum value of [google.rpc.Code][google.rpc.Code]. - `message` (string, optional) — A developer-facing error message, which should be in English. Any user-facing error message should be localized and sent in the [google.rpc.Status.details][google.rpc.Status.details] field, or localized by the client. - `details` (list of GoogleProtobufAny, optional) — A list of messages that carry the error details. There is a common set of message types for APIs to use. ## Types ### GenerateTimelineContentBlock Generate timeline content containing the content of the timeline block. - `content` (string, required) — Content of the timeline block. - `languageTag` (InferenceLanguage, required) — The language in which the audio has to be generated. - `service` (integer, required) — The Processing service to generate the audio. - `sentencePauseDuration` (string, optional) — Pause duration between sentences - `speechSpeed` (double, optional) — Speed in which the audio has to be generated. ### Timeline A timeline is a list of tracks, each of which contain a sequence of actions. A timeline can be played out, which plays the tracks parallelly and the actions in a track in sequence. - `title` (string, required) — The title of the timeline. - `name` (string, optional) — The resource name of the timeline. - `animationStrips` (list of AnimationStrip, optional) — Animations strips that are in the timeline. - `speechStrips` (list of SpeechStrip, optional) — Speech strips to play ### GoogleProtobufAny Contains an arbitrary serialized message along with a @type that describes the type of the serialized message. - `@type` (string, optional) — The type of the serialized message. ### InferenceLanguage InferenceLanguage is the language code for the robot's conversation. - `countryTag` (integer, required) — The country code for the robot's conversation. - `languageTag` (integer, required) — The language code for the robot's conversation. - `inputAudio` (string, optional) — The audio input for the robot's conversation. - `inputText` (string, optional) — The text input for the robot's conversation. - `inputSpeech` (string, optional) — The speech input for the robot's conversation. - `inputNone` (boolean, optional) — The none input for the robot's conversation. - `outputAudio` (string, optional) — The audio output for the robot's conversation. - `outputText` (string, optional) — The text output for the robot's conversation. - `outputSpeech` (string, optional) — The speech output for the robot's conversation. - `outputNone` (boolean, optional) — The none output for the robot's conversation. ### AnimationStrip AnimationStrip is an object that represents an animation strip to be played on a track. - `uid` (string, required) — Unique ID of the animation. - `animation` (string, required) — Name of the animation. - `trackNum` (integer, required) — Track number on which the animation will be played. - `begin` (string, required) — Start time of the animation. - `duration` (string, required) — Duration of the animation. - `rampin` (double, required) — Ramp-in value for the animation. - `rampout` (double, required) — Ramp-out value for the animation. - `magnitude` (double, required) — Magnitude of the animation. - `type` (integer, required) — Type of the animation. ### SpeechStrip SpeechStrip is an object that represents a speech strip to be played on a track. - `speechId` (string, required) — Name is the resource name of the Speech used in the strip. - `trackNum` (integer, required) — Track number on which the speech will be played. - `begin` (string, required) — Start time of the speech. - `duration` (string, required) — Duration of the speech. ## Examples **Request** ```json { "title": "Morning Routine Timeline", "blocks": [ { "content": "Good morning!
