Parameters

FieldTypeDefaultAllowedWhat it does
promptRequiredstring——What to generate: subject, action, camera movement and mood.
aspect_ratioOptionalstringadaptive21:9, 16:9, 4:3, 1:1, 3:4, 9:16, adaptiveAspect ratio of the generated video.
resolutionOptionalstring720p480p, 720p, 1080p, 4kOutput resolution. Super-resolution tiers are not offered.
duration_secondsOptionalinteger5-1, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15Clip length in seconds. This is the billed quantity. Pass -1 for smart duration: the model picks the length itself instead of a fixed number.
generate_audioOptionalbooleantrue—Generate a native soundtrack synchronised to the picture.
enable_web_searchOptionalbooleanfalse—Let the model search the web for information related to the prompt before rendering. Requests with it on are billed at the web-search rate.
seedOptionalinteger—0 to 2147483647Random seed. Omit to let the model pick one.
return_last_frameOptionalbooleanfalse—Also return the clip’s final frame as a separate image.
bitrate_modeOptionalstringstandardstandard, highEncoding bitrate of the delivered file: standard, or high for crisper detail and a larger file.
watermarkOptionalbooleanfalse—Add the model’s visible "AI generated" watermark to the video.

Parameters

FieldTypeDefaultAllowedWhat it does
video_urlRequiredstring (uri)——The clip to continue: MP4, MOV or WebM, up to 60 seconds. Its last frame opens the new segment, and the result is your clip with the new segment joined on.

generate_audioOptionalbooleantrue—Generate a native soundtrack for the new segment. The source keeps its own sound either way.
seedOptionalinteger—0 to 2147483647Random seed. Omit to let the model pick one.
