# Veo 3.1 Image to Video API

> Animerer et billede til et 4 til 8 sekunder langt Veo 3.1-klip med dialog og lyd, op til 4K.

Veo 3.1 forvandler et stillbillede til realistiske optagelser, der bevarer billedets motiv og indramning, med tale, lydeffekter og musik genereret sammen med billedet. 4, 6 eller 8 sekunder ved 720p, 1080p eller 4K; billedformatet følger billedet eller tvinges til 16:9 eller 9:16. Lyd kan slås fra for en lavere pris.

- Model id: `veo3.1/image-to-video`
- Made by: Google
- Category: Image to Video
- Output: video
- Price: from $0.20 / second (8 s ≈ $1.60) (cheapest run $1.60 (1600 API credits))
- Run: `POST https://api.doitong.com/v1/run/veo3.1/image-to-video`
- Quote: `POST https://api.doitong.com/v1/quote/veo3.1/image-to-video`
- Docs page: https://doitong.com/da/developers/models/veo3.1/image-to-video

## Pricing

Price: **from $0.20 / second (8 s ≈ $1.60)** (the lowest tier; the quote prices your exact input). Billed per second of output (`duration`, default 8).

Price rules (the first rule that matches the input wins; a parameter you leave out counts as its default):

- When `resolution` = 4k and `generate_audio` = true: $0.60 (600 API credits) / second
- When `resolution` = 4k: $0.40 (400 API credits) / second
- When `generate_audio` = true: $0.40 (400 API credits) / second

The full example input below costs $2.40 = 2400 API credits (6 s × 400 API credits).

Prices are the upstream price in USD, paid from the API balance in API credits (1000 API credits = 1 USD). `POST https://api.doitong.com/v1/quote/veo3.1/image-to-video` with the same JSON body returns the exact price for that input; the quote is exactly what a run charges. Invalid input is never charged and failed or canceled requests are refunded automatically.

## Input parameters

Send either the canonical name or the native field name (not both). Canonical names are the same across models.

| Parameter | Canonical name | Type | Required | Default | Allowed values / range | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| `prompt` |  | string | yes |  | ≤ 20000 characters | Tekstbeskrivelse af den ønskede video til generering. |
| `aspect_ratio` |  | enum (string) | no | `auto` | `auto`, `16:9`, `9:16` | Outputvideoens billedformat, begrænset til 16:9 eller 9:16. |
| `duration` |  | enum (string) | no | `8s` | `4s`, `6s`, `8s` | Outputvideoens længde. |
| `negative_prompt` |  | string \| null | no |  |  | Negativ prompt, der styrer videogenereringen. |
| `resolution` |  | enum (string) | no | `720p` | `720p`, `1080p`, `4k` | Opløsning anvendt til outputvideoen. |
| `generate_audio` |  | boolean | no | `true` |  | Styrer, om videoen indeholder genereret lyd. |
| `seed` |  | integer \| null | no |  |  | Seed-værdi, der initialiserer generering af tilfældige tal. |
| `auto_fix` |  | boolean | no | `false` |  | Automatisk omskrivning af prompts for at forsøge at løse fejl i indholdspolitikkontroller eller anden validering. |
| `safety_tolerance` |  | enum (string) | no | `4` | `1`, `2`, `3`, `4`, `5`, `6` | Angiv tolerancen for indholdsmoderering mellem det mindst restriktive niveau, 6, og det strengeste niveau, 1, som blokerer det meste indhold. |
| `image_url` | `image` | string (image URL) | yes |  |  | URL til animationskildebilledet med automatisk beskæring, når proportionerne afviger fra 16:9 eller 9:16. Den anbefalede kilde er mindst 720p og bruger allerede et af disse billedformater. |

File parameters (`image`) take a public `https://` URL, a `data:` URI up to 10 MB, or the `file_url` of an upload from `POST /files`.

## Example input

Required parameters only:

```json
{
  "prompt": "The fox turns toward the camera and says \"Have you seen my friends?\" in a soft voice, fireflies drift by",
  "image": "https://content.doitong.com/images/showcase/v3/gen_fox_cartoon.jpg"
}
```

A fuller example:

```json
{
  "prompt": "The fox turns toward the camera and says \"Have you seen my friends?\" in a soft voice, fireflies drift by",
  "image": "https://content.doitong.com/images/showcase/v3/gen_fox_cartoon.jpg",
  "duration": 6,
  "resolution": "720p"
}
```

## Run it

Set `DOITONG_API_KEY` to a key from https://doitong.com/developers/dashboard#keys. `?wait=20` returns the finished request in the same call when it is ready within 20 seconds; otherwise poll `GET /requests/{id}` (it also accepts `?wait=`), or pass `webhook_url`.

### curl

```bash
# Run the model; wait up to 20 s for the finished result in the same call
curl -X POST "https://api.doitong.com/v1/run/veo3.1/image-to-video?wait=20" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $DOITONG_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "prompt": "The fox turns toward the camera and says \"Have you seen my friends?\" in a soft voice, fireflies drift by",
    "image": "https://content.doitong.com/images/showcase/v3/gen_fox_cartoon.jpg",
    "duration": 6,
    "resolution": "720p"
  }'

# Still "queued" or "running"? Poll with the id from the response:
curl "https://api.doitong.com/v1/requests/REQUEST_ID?wait=20" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $DOITONG_API_KEY"
```

### JavaScript

```javascript
const API = "https://api.doitong.com/v1";
const headers = {
  "Authorization": "Bearer " + process.env.DOITONG_API_KEY,
  "Content-Type": "application/json",
};

// Run the model; wait up to 20 s for the finished result in the same call
let res = await fetch(API + "/run/veo3.1/image-to-video?wait=20", {
  method: "POST",
  headers,
  body: JSON.stringify({

    "image": "https://content.doitong.com/images/showcase/v3/gen_fox_cartoon.jpg",
    "duration": 6,
    "resolution": "720p"
  }),
});
let request = await res.json();
if (!res.ok) throw new Error(request.error.code + ": " + request.error.message);

// Not finished yet: long-poll until it is
while (request.status === "queued" || request.status === "running") {
  res = await fetch(API + "/requests/" + request.id + "?wait=20", { headers });
  request = await res.json();
}
if (request.status !== "succeeded") throw new Error(JSON.stringify(request.error));
console.log(request.outputs.map((o) => o.url), request.cost.credits + " API credits ($" + request.cost.usd + ")");
```

### Python

```python
import os
import requests

API = "https://api.doitong.com/v1"
headers = {"Authorization": "Bearer " + os.environ["DOITONG_API_KEY"]}

payload = {
    "prompt": "The fox turns toward the camera and says \"Have you seen my friends?\" in a soft voice, fireflies drift by",
    "image": "https://content.doitong.com/images/showcase/v3/gen_fox_cartoon.jpg",
    "duration": 6,
    "resolution": "720p",
}

# Run the model; wait up to 20 s for the finished result in the same call
r = requests.post(API + "/run/veo3.1/image-to-video", params={"wait": 20}, json=payload, headers=headers)
request = r.json()
if not r.ok:
    raise RuntimeError(request["error"]["code"] + ": " + request["error"]["message"])

# Not finished yet: long-poll until it is
while request["status"] in ("queued", "running"):
    request = requests.get(API + "/requests/" + request["id"], params={"wait": 20}, headers=headers).json()
if request["status"] != "succeeded":
    raise RuntimeError(request["error"])
print([o["url"] for o in request["outputs"]], request["cost"]["credits"], "API credits", "$" + request["cost"]["usd"])
```

### MCP

The MCP server at `https://api.doitong.com/v1/mcp` exposes the tools `search_models`, `get_model`, `quote`, `run`, `get_request`, `cancel_request`, `list_requests`, `create_upload` and `get_account`. A `run` call for this model:

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "run",
    "arguments": {
      "model_id": "veo3.1/image-to-video",
      "input": {
        "prompt": "The fox turns toward the camera and says \"Have you seen my friends?\" in a soft voice, fireflies drift by",
        "image": "https://content.doitong.com/images/showcase/v3/gen_fox_cartoon.jpg",
        "duration": 6,
        "resolution": "720p"
      },
      "wait_seconds": 20
    }
  }
}
```

## Response

Every call returns a request object. `status` is one of `queued`, `running`, `succeeded`, `failed`, `canceled`. `outputs` lists the generated files with URLs on our storage (kept forever, or 7 days with `?storage=temporary`; `storage` says which); `output` is the model's own result object with the same URLs.
