Overview
Seedance 1.5 Pro Video-Extend turns short source clips into longer videos with natural motion continuation, stable aesthetics, and a clean final output. APIXO analyzes the source video and applies its video extension workflow to produce a longer continuation through the standard async task API. It is a strong fit for extending ad creatives, short-drama shots, talking-head clips, and other short-form scenes where you want the next moment of the same shot instead of a brand-new composition.| Capability | Value |
|---|---|
| Model ID | seedance-1-5-pro-extend |
| Required mode | video-extend |
| Source input | Exactly 1 public video URL in video_urls |
| Prompt length | 3-2500 characters |
| Resolutions | 480p, 720p, 1080p |
| Duration | 4-12 seconds |
| Audio | Required sound toggle |
| Aspect handling | Adaptive continuation based on the source clip; no public aspect_ratio field |
| Reproducibility | Optional seed support |
| Output | Final stitched video URL in resultJson.resultUrls |
Endpoint and authentication
Base URL:| Method | Endpoint | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
POST | /generateTask/seedance-1-5-pro-extend | Submit a video extend task |
GET | /statusTask/seedance-1-5-pro-extend?taskId={taskId} | Poll task status and retrieve the final stitched video |
Copy-paste async quickstart
This minimal request extends a short source clip and returns a newtaskId.
taskId; you need it to poll for the final result.
Poll for result

Request body
Parameters
Result delivery mode. Use
async for polling with statusTask, or callback for webhook delivery.Required when
request_type is callback. Must be a public HTTPS URL that can receive the final task payload. See Webhooks.Seedance 1.5 Pro Video-Extend input parameters.
Response format
Submit task response
POST /generateTask/seedance-1-5-pro-extend returns a task ID when the task is accepted:
API status code.
200 means the task was accepted.Human-readable status message.
Unique task identifier used with the status endpoint.
Status response fields
Unique task identifier.
Current task state:
processing, success, or failed.JSON string containing the final stitched video URLs. Present when
state is success.Machine-readable failure code. Present when
state is failed.Human-readable failure message. Present when
state is failed.Task creation timestamp in Unix milliseconds.
Task completion timestamp in Unix milliseconds. Present after completion.
Processing duration in milliseconds. Present after completion when available.
Webhook callback mode
Use callback mode when your backend should receive the final result automatically instead of polling.Billing
Seedance 1.5 Pro Video-Extend uses the same per-second pricing tiers as Seedance 1.5 Pro, so cost stays predictable even though the workflow includes continuation analysis and final stitching.| Resolution | sound | Price |
|---|---|---|
480p | false | $0.012 / second |
480p | true | $0.024 / second |
720p | false | $0.024 / second |
720p | true | $0.048 / second |
1080p | false | $0.052 / second |
1080p | true | $0.104 / second |
720p with sound: false for 8 seconds costs $0.192.

Latency and polling
This workflow includes tail analysis and final stitching in addition to upstream generation, so it may take slightly longer than direct text-to-video or image-to-video generation. In return, you get a cleaner continuation workflow and a single ready-to-use output URL.| Requested duration | Recommended first poll | Poll interval |
|---|---|---|
4 seconds | 45s after task creation | 5s-10s |
8 seconds | 60s after task creation | 5s-10s |
12 seconds | 90s after task creation | 5s-10s |
429, slow down requests and retry with backoff. For account-level details, see System APIs.
Errors and troubleshooting
HTTP errors
| Code | Meaning | What to do |
|---|---|---|
400 | Invalid request body, missing required field, unsupported resolution, invalid duration, or malformed source URL array | Fix the request before retrying |
401 | Missing or invalid API key | Check the Authorization header |
402 | Insufficient balance or quota | Add balance or switch account/key |
403 | Key or route cannot access the model | Check permissions and route strategy |
429 | Rate limit or concurrency limit reached | Retry with exponential backoff |
500 | Server error or internal processing error | Retry with backoff; contact support if it repeats |
502 | Upstream error | Retry with backoff |
504 | Upstream timeout | Retry or use callback mode for long-running jobs |
Task failure codes
| Fail code | Meaning | What to do |
|---|---|---|
MISSING_REQUIRED_PARAM | A required field such as mode, prompt, video_urls, resolution, duration, or sound is missing | Fix the request before retrying |
INVALID_PARAMETER | One or more fields use an unsupported value or type | Check mode, resolution, duration, sound, camera_fixed, seed, and watermark |
API_SERVICE_UNAVAILABLE | Tail analysis, merge processing, or upstream continuation is temporarily unavailable | Retry later |
SensitiveContent | The continuation prompt or generated content violated upstream policy | Change the prompt and retry |
RateLimited | The upstream route rate limited the task | Retry later with backoff |
Timeout | The workflow did not finish in time | Retry, simplify the prompt, or use callback mode |
Unknown error | The failure did not match a known public mapping | Retry or contact support with the taskId |
Common validation fixes
| Symptom | Fix |
|---|---|
mode is rejected | Set input.mode to video-extend |
video_urls is rejected | Provide exactly 1 public video URL |
resolution is rejected | Use 480p, 720p, or 1080p |
duration is rejected | Send an integer from 4 to 12 |
sound is rejected | Send a boolean: true or false |
| Prompt length error | Keep the trimmed prompt within 3-2500 characters |
