IdleYour request will cost $0.05 per run. For $10 you can run this model approximately 200 times.
Here's what you can do next:
Code Example
import requests

"height": 512,
"duration": 3,
"fps": 24,
}
generate_response = requests.post(generate_url, headers=headers, json=data)
generate_result = generate_response.json()
prediction_id = generate_result["data"]["id"]
# Step 2: Poll for result
poll_url = f"https://api.atlascloud.ai/api/v1/model/prediction/{prediction_id}"
def check_status():
while True:

if result["data"]["status"] in ["completed", "succeeded"]:
print("Generated video:", result["data"]["outputs"][0])

raise Exception(result["data"]["error"] or "Generation failed")
else:
# Still processing, wait 2 seconds

Install the required package for your language.
pip install requestsAuthentication
All API requests require authentication via an API key. You can get your API key from the Atlas Cloud dashboard.
export ATLASCLOUD_API_KEY="your-api-key-here"HTTP Headers
import os
API_KEY = os.environ.get("ATLASCLOUD_API_KEY")
headers = {
"Content-Type": "application/json",
"Authorization": f"Bearer {API_KEY}"
}Never expose your API key in client-side code or public repositories. Use environment variables or a backend proxy instead.
Submit a request
import requests
url = "https://api.atlascloud.ai/api/v1/model/generateVideo"
headers = {
"Content-Type": "application/json",
"Authorization": "Bearer $ATLASCLOUD_API_KEY"
}
data = {
"model": "your-model",
"prompt": "A beautiful landscape"
}
response = requests.post(url, headers=headers, json=data)
print(response.json())Submit a Request
Submit an asynchronous generation request. The API returns a prediction ID that you can use to check the status and retrieve the result.
