Request Parameters - Image To Video Request
| Field | Type | Required | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| model | enum string | Yes | — | The image-to-video model to use for generation. Available options: dop-lite, dop-preview, dop-turbo. Each model offers different quality and speed trade-offs. Example: dop-lite |
| prompt | string | Yes | — | Text description/prompt for video generation. Describes the desired video content, style, and motion. Be descriptive for better results. Example: A peaceful sunset over mountains with clouds moving slowly |
| seed | integer | Yes | — | Random seed for reproducible results. Must be between 1 and 1,000,000. Using the same seed with identical parameters will produce similar results. Example: 500000 |
| motions_id | string (UUID) | Yes | — | Unique identifier for the motion preset. This ID corresponds to predefined motion effects available in the system. You can get motion_id using the API: https://endpoints.appypie.com/api-details#api=ai-model-api-polling&operation=motions |
| motions_strength | number (0-1) | Yes | — | Intensity of the motion effect application. Range from 0.0 (minimal effect) to 1.0 (maximum effect) with 0.01 step precision. Higher values create more pronounced motion. Example: 0.75 |
| input_images | array of strings | Yes | — | Array of image URLs for video generation. Each URL must be a publicly accessible link pointing to a valid image file. Supported formats include JPEG, PNG, WebP. Must contain exactly 1 element for standard generation. Example: ["https://example.com/image1.jpg"] |
| input_images_end | array of strings | No | null | Array of end frame image URLs for Start & End Frame functionality. Each URL must be a publicly accessible link pointing to a valid image file. Supported formats include JPEG, PNG, WebP. Minimum length: 1 element. Enables advanced frame interpolation between start and end images. Example: ["https://example.com/end-frame.jpg"] |
| enhance_prompt | boolean | Yes | — | Whether to automatically enhance and refine the provided prompt. When true, the system will optimize your prompt for better video generation results. Example: true |
| check_nsfw | boolean | No | true | Whether to perform NSFW (Not Safe For Work) content detection. When true, the system will check for inappropriate content and may reject the request if detected. |

Typical Workflow
- Send a generate request to the API endpoint
- Save the
request_idfrom the response - Poll every 5-10 seconds:
GET /v2/requests/status/{request_id} - When
statusis"COMPLETED", download fromoutput.media_url
Tip: Use X-Webhook-URL header to get a callback instead of polling.
