# Set Podcast Duration

This snippet recreates the [⏱️ Set Podcast Duration](https://docs.autocontentapi.com/quick-start/podcasts/set-duration) recipe using Node.js. Review the [Node.js guide](https://github.com/miguelpieras/autocontentapi-docs/blob/main/code-samples/nodejs.md) for environment setup before running it.

```javascript
// Requires Node.js 18+ for the built-in fetch API.
const token = process.env.AUTOCONTENT_TOKEN ?? "YOUR_API_TOKEN";
const endpoint = "https://api.autocontentapi.com/content/Create";

const payload = {
  "outputType": "audio",
  "resources": [
    {
      "type": "youtube",
      "content": "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ"
    }
  ],
  "text": "Summarize the key arguments in plain language.",
  "duration": "short"
};

async function run() {
  const response = await fetch(endpoint, {
    method: "POST",
    headers: {
      Authorization: `Bearer ${token}`,
      "Content-Type": "application/json"
    },
    body: JSON.stringify(payload)
  });

  if (!response.ok) {
    const errorText = await response.text();
    throw new Error(`Request failed: ${response.status} ${response.statusText}\n${errorText}`);
  }

  const result = await response.json();
  console.log("Request accepted:", result);
}

run().catch(error => {
  console.error(error);
  process.exit(1);
});
```

Replace `YOUR_API_TOKEN` (or set the `AUTOCONTENT_TOKEN` environment variable) before running the request.
