I apologize, but it seems there's a misunderstanding. The HeyGen integration in Clay doesn't have an option to directly add a background video URL from YouTube or Google Drive. For background options, you can select a "Background type" when setting up the HeyGen avatar video generation. If you need to use custom background media, you might want to check out our Captions integration instead. With Captions, you can include background media by selecting up to 5 images or videos. Supported formats are JPEG, PNG, MOV, and MP4. If you need more specific help with HeyGen or Captions, please let me know, and I'll be happy to assist further.

For the HeyGen avatar video background, we don't have a specific hosting recommendation for video URLs. However, you can use the Captions integration as an alternative. With Captions, you can include up to 5 background media files (images or videos) by providing their URLs. Supported formats are JPEG, PNG, MOV, and MP4. If you need more assistance with this, please let me know, and I can provide further guidance.

No. Captions also need a URL for the file. But if the google drive link does not work...?

Hey Lukas, thanks for letting us know - good to consider if other users are running into this! I think you might have what you need here, so I'll tentatively mark this closed for the moment. Please keep in touch if you hit other roadblocks!
