API Usage

Text-to-Video

import requests

response = requests.post(
    "https://api.atlascloud.ai/api/v1/model/generateVideo",
    headers={
        "Authorization": "Bearer your-api-key",
        "Content-Type": "application/json"
    },
    json={
        "model": "kling-v2.0",
        "prompt": "A rocket launching into space with dramatic lighting and smoke effects"
    }
)

prediction_id = response.json().get("predictionId")
print(f"Task submitted. Prediction ID: {prediction_id}")

Image-to-Video

For image-to-video workflows, first upload your source image using the Upload Media endpoint, then pass the returned URL to the video generation request:

import requests

# Step 1: Upload source image
upload_response = requests.post(
    "https://api.atlascloud.ai/api/v1/model/uploadMedia",
    headers={"Authorization": "Bearer your-api-key"},
    files={"file": open("source_image.jpg", "rb")}
)
image_url = upload_response.json().get("url")

# Step 2: Generate video from image
response = requests.post(
    "https://api.atlascloud.ai/api/v1/model/generateVideo",
    headers={
        "Authorization": "Bearer your-api-key",
        "Content-Type": "application/json"
    },
    json={
        "model": "kling-v2.0",
        "prompt": "The person in the image starts walking forward",
        "image_url": image_url
    }
)

prediction_id = response.json().get("predictionId")

Check Generation Status

Video generation is asynchronous. Use the prediction ID to poll for results:

import requests
import time

def get_result(prediction_id, api_key):
    while True:
        response = requests.get(
            f"https://api.atlascloud.ai/api/v1/model/getResult?predictionId={prediction_id}",
            headers={"Authorization": f"Bearer {api_key}"}
        )
        result = response.json()

        if result.get("status") == "completed":
            return result.get("output")
        elif result.get("status") == "failed":
            raise Exception(f"Generation failed: {result.get('error')}")

        time.sleep(5)  # Poll every 5 seconds

output = get_result(prediction_id, "your-api-key")
print(f"Video URL: {output}")

Node.js Example

const response = await fetch(
  "https://api.atlascloud.ai/api/v1/model/generateVideo",
  {
    method: "POST",
    headers: {
      Authorization: "Bearer your-api-key",
      "Content-Type": "application/json",
    },
    body: JSON.stringify({
      model: "kling-v2.0",
      prompt: "A beautiful timelapse of clouds moving over a mountain range",
    }),
  }
);

const { predictionId } = await response.json();
console.log(`Task submitted. Prediction ID: ${predictionId}`);

Model Selection Tips

  • Quality vs Speed: Newer model versions (e.g., Kling v3.0) typically offer better quality but may have longer generation times
  • Motion Control: Some models offer better control over camera movement and subject motion
  • Style: Different models excel at different styles — photorealistic, anime, cinematic, etc.
  • Resolution & Duration: Check each model's supported resolutions and maximum video duration on its detail page

Browse and compare models on the Model Library. Each model page includes an interactive playground for testing and detailed parameter documentation.
