Endpoint and authentication

POST https://api.tu-zi.com/kling/v1/videos/text2video

Transport: json

Use an inference API key. Examples contain placeholders; read credentials from environment variables.

Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY
Content-Type: application/json

Minimal request example

{
  "model_name": "YOUR_MODEL",
  "prompt": "A valley at sunrise"
}

Before running

Replace https://api.tu-zi.com with this site origin (do not append /v1 twice), and YOUR_MODEL with the exact marketplace model ID. Install requests for Python; use Node.js 20+ and save JavaScript as .mjs. WebSocket samples list their own dependencies.

Create an inference key on the site and set API_KEY in the environment; replace YOUR_API_KEY in cURL. Prepare local input.png/input.wav files for upload examples.

Start with a minimal request, then read the result using the response fields below. For async APIs, a returned task ID requires polling; acceptance does not mean generation has finished.

Constraints

This page describes the base protocol. Use the selected model quick start for supported fields, enums, limits and asynchronous behavior. Replace YOUR_MODEL. Form initial values are not upstream defaults.

Body parameters

FieldTypeRequiredDescription / constraints
model_namestringNoProvider model version; use the model identifier configured by this gateway.
promptstringYesGeneration prompt.
negative_promptstringNoContent to exclude from the output.
aspect_ratiostringNoOutput aspect ratio. Form initial value (not an upstream default): "16:9" Values: "16:9", "9:16", "1:1"
modestringNoGeneration mode. Form initial value (not an upstream default): "std" Values: "std", "pro"
durationstringNoVideo duration in seconds. Form initial value (not an upstream default): "5" Values: "5", "10"
cfg_scalenumberNoPrompt adherence strength. Form initial value (not an upstream default): 0.5 Range in this definition: 0 ~ 1

Response fields

FieldTypeDescription / constraints
id / task_idstringPublic gateway task ID for polling, not request_id.

Illustrative response; some endpoints show essential fields only. Optional fields may be absent.

{
  "id": "task_example",
  "task_id": "task_example"
}

Asynchronous workflow

Save id or task_id and GET /kling/v1/videos/text2video/{task_id} with the same key. Read data.status: SUBMITTED, QUEUED, IN_PROGRESS, SUCCESS or FAILURE. The last two are terminal. Retrieve media from result_url or result data; do not use the direct Kling lowercase status contract.

Errors and retries

Check HTTP status and protocol-specific errors; do not mix error formats across protocols. For 401/403 check credentials and permissions, for 429 back off, and for 5xx check gateway/upstream status. Error bodies may contain error/message/code depending on the protocol.

Use bounded exponential backoff for reads. Do not blindly retry task creation, generation, or key mutations, to avoid duplicate billing or execution.
