Endpoint and authentication

Base URL:

https://api.apixo.ai/api/v1

Method	Endpoint	Purpose
`POST`	`/generateTask/kling-3-0-std`	Submit a generation task
`GET`	`/statusTask/kling-3-0-std?taskId={taskId}`	Poll task status and retrieve results

All requests require your APIXO API key:

Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY

Submit requests also require:

Content-Type: application/json

Copy-paste async quickstart

This minimal request submits a text-to-video task and returns a taskId.

curl -X POST "https://api.apixo.ai/api/v1/generateTask/kling-3-0-std" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "request_type": "async",
    "input": {
      "mode": "text-to-video",
      "prompt": "a cinematic city skyline at sunset, slow camera push-in",
      "duration": 5,
      "sound": false,
      "aspect_ratio": "16:9"
    }
  }'

Successful response:

{
  "code": 200,
  "message": "success",
  "data": {
    "taskId": "task_12345678"
  }
}

Save the taskId; you need it to poll for the final result.

Poll for result

curl -X GET "https://api.apixo.ai/api/v1/statusTask/kling-3-0-std?taskId=task_12345678" \

Parameters

request_type

string

default:"async"

required

Result delivery mode. Use async for polling with statusTask, or callback for webhook delivery.

callback_url

string

Required when request_type is callback. Must be a public HTTPS URL that can receive the final task payload. See Webhooks.

input

object

required

Kling 3.0 Std input parameters.

Show properties

mode

string

required

Generation mode. Supported values: text-to-video, image-to-video, motion-control.

prompt

string

Text prompt for the video. Required for text-to-video and image-to-video; optional for motion-control. If provided, it must be a non-empty string.

negative_prompt

string

Optional negative prompt. If provided, it must be a non-empty string.

duration

integer

default:"5"

Output duration in seconds for text-to-video and image-to-video. Supports integer values or numeric strings from 3 to 15. Ignored and not forwarded in motion-control.

sound

boolean

default:"true"

For text-to-video and image-to-video, controls whether Kling generates audio with the video. For motion-control, controls whether the reference video’s original audio is retained.

aspect_ratio

string

default:"16:9"

Output aspect ratio for text-to-video only. Supported values: 1:1, 9:16, 16:9.

cfg_scale

number

Guidance scale for text-to-video and image-to-video. Supported range: 0 to 1.

image_urls

string[]

Reference image URLs. Required for image-to-video and motion-control. image-to-video supports 1-2 images; motion-control requires exactly 1 image. Upstream expects JPG, JPEG, or PNG images, with each image under 10 MB.

video_urls

string[]

Required for motion-control only. Provide exactly 1 public HTTP/HTTPS MP4, MOV, or M4V URL. APIXO probes video_urls[0] to detect duration; videos over 30 seconds are rejected.

character_orientation

string

motion-control only. Supported values: image, video. Determines whether character orientation follows the character image or the motion reference video.

multi_prompt

object[]

Optional shot-level prompt segments for text-to-video and image-to-video. Each item must include a non-empty prompt and a duration integer or numeric string. multi_prompt does not affect billing.

Response format

Submit task response

POST /generateTask/kling-3-0-std returns a task ID when the task is accepted:

Human-readable status message.

data.taskId

string

Unique task identifier used with the status endpoint.

Status response fields

taskId

string

Unique task identifier.

state

string

Current task state: pending, processing, success, or failed.

resultJson

string

JSON string containing the generated video URLs. Present when state is success.

failCode

string

Machine-readable failure code. Present when state is failed.

failMsg

Human-readable failure message. Present when state is failed.

createTime

integer

Task creation timestamp in Unix milliseconds.

completeTime

integer

Task completion timestamp in Unix milliseconds. Present after completion.

costTime

integer

Processing duration in milliseconds. Present after successful completion.

Webhook callback mode

Use callback mode when your backend should receive the final result automatically instead of polling.

curl -X POST "https://api.apixo.ai/api/v1/generateTask/kling-3-0-std" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "request_type": "callback",
    "callback_url": "https://your-server.com/webhooks/apixo",
    "input": {
      "mode": "image-to-video",
      "prompt": "animate the product photo with a slow studio camera move",
      "duration": 5,
      "sound": true,
      "image_urls": [
        "https://example.com/product.png"
      ]
    }
  }'

See Webhooks for delivery requirements and retry behavior.

Billing

Kling 3.0 Std is billed per generated video second. For text-to-video and image-to-video, the selected sound value determines the unit price. For motion-control, APIXO probes the reference video duration and uses a minimum of 3 billable seconds.

Workflow	Billing input	APIXO price
`text-to-video` or `image-to-video`, `sound: false`	`duration` seconds	`$0.084 / second`
`text-to-video` or `image-to-video`, `sound: true`	`duration` seconds	`$0.13 / second`
`motion-control`	Detected `video_urls[0]` duration, minimum 3 seconds	`$0.13 / second`

For current route and market comparison pricing, see Pricing.

Latency and polling

Actual latency may vary by prompt complexity, reference media, sound generation, route, and current queue load.

Request shape	Typical generation time	Recommended first poll	Poll interval
3-5 second text/image video	60s-90s	60s after task creation	5s-10s
6-10 second text/image video	90s-120s	60s after task creation	5s-10s
11-15 second text/image video	120s-180s	60s after task creation	5s-10s
Motion-control	Varies with reference video duration and probing	60s after task creation	5s-10s

Video generation takes longer than image generation. For production workloads, use callback mode to avoid frequent polling.

Rate limits and concurrency can vary by account, API key, and route. If you receive 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, mode, parameter, image URL, or video URL	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	Retry with backoff
`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
`CONTENT_VIOLATION`	Prompt or reference media failed safety checks	Change the prompt or input media
`INVALID_IMAGE_URL`	A reference image URL could not be fetched or decoded	Use a public, direct JPG, JPEG, or PNG URL
`INVALID_VIDEO_URL`	A reference video URL could not be fetched, decoded, or probed	Use a public MP4, MOV, or M4V URL
`INVALID_PARAMETER`	A model parameter is unsupported or malformed	Check `mode`, `duration`, `sound`, `aspect_ratio`, `image_urls`, and `video_urls`
`INSUFFICIENT_BALANCE`	The account does not have enough balance for the task	Add balance before retrying
`UPSTREAM_ERROR`	Upstream failure	Retry with backoff
`TIMEOUT`	Generation did not finish in time	Retry, simplify inputs, or use callback mode

Common fixes

Symptom	Fix
Request fails with invalid mode	Set `input.mode` to `text-to-video`, `image-to-video`, or `motion-control`
Unexpected audio cost	`sound` defaults to `true`; set `sound: false` for text/image video without generated audio
`duration` has no effect in motion-control	This mode detects duration from `video_urls[0]` and does not forward `duration`
Aspect ratio has no effect	`aspect_ratio` is only forwarded for `text-to-video`
Video URL probe fails	Use a direct public HTTP/HTTPS MP4, MOV, or M4V URL that supports range reads or full download
Motion-control video is rejected	Keep the reference video at 30 seconds or shorter
