# Live Videos

A **Live Video** is a video of the client performing recital and movement challenges to ensure **liveness**. Typically, along with an ID document, they are used to perform [Enhanced Identity Checks](https://docs.complycube.com/documentation/checks/enhanced-identity-check).

The live videos API allows you to retrieve, download, and delete live photos. You can retrieve a specific live video as well as a list of all your client's live videos.

{% hint style="info" %}
Live videos can only be **created** and **uploaded** via the [Web SDK](https://docs.complycube.com/documentation/guides/web-sdk-quick-guide) and native Mobile SDKs..
