# Wan 2.7 Reference to Video API

> Makes video that keeps the subjects of reference images or clips, with multi-subject and multi-shot options

Generates a video from a required text prompt plus reference images (`reference_image_urls`) and reference videos (`reference_video_urls`) that carry character or object appearance. Several references can be combined for multi-subject scenes. Choose from five aspect ratios, 720p or 1080p, and 2 to 10 seconds. Set `multi_shots` to true to split the result into several shots instead of one continuous take.

- Model id: `wan/v2.7/reference-to-video`
- Made by: Alibaba
- Category: Reference to Video
- Output: video
- Price per second of your output video: $0.10 / second of output video (cheapest run $0.10 (100 API credits))
- Run: `POST https://api.doitong.com/v1/run/wan/v2.7/reference-to-video`
- Quote: `POST https://api.doitong.com/v1/quote/wan/v2.7/reference-to-video`
- Docs page: https://doitong.com/developers/models/wan/v2.7/reference-to-video

## Pricing

Price: **$0.10 / second of output video**. Price per second of your output video: the input files are measured before the run (length, resolution, frame rate). The quote measures the same files and is exactly what the run charges.

The full example input below costs $0.50 = 500 API credits (5 s output video × $0.10).

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/wan/v2.7/reference-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 |  | ≥ 1 characters | Description of the video to create, limited to 5000 characters. |
| `reference_image_urls` | `images` | array of image URL \| null | no |  |  | Image URLs defining how characters or objects look, with each file limited to 20 MB. To generate multiple subjects, supply multiple reference images. |
| `reference_video_urls` |  | array of video URL \| null | no |  |  | Video URLs defining how characters or objects look and move; supplying several videos enables generation with multiple subjects. Each file must be no larger than 100 MB and no longer than 30 seconds. |
| `negative_prompt` |  | string \| null | no |  |  | Content the video should exclude, limited to 500 characters. |
| `aspect_ratio` |  | enum (string) | no | `16:9` | `16:9`, `9:16`, `1:1`, `4:3`, `3:4` | Aspect ratio for the resulting video. |
| `resolution` |  | enum (string) | no | `1080p` | `720p`, `1080p` | Resolution tier for the resulting video. |
| `duration` |  | enum (integer) | no | `5` | `2`, `3`, `4`, `5`, `6`, `7`, `8`, `9`, `10` | Length of the generated video, in seconds, from 2 to 10. |
| `multi_shots` |  | boolean | no | `false` |  | Shot segmentation control: the default false produces one continuous shot, while true activates intelligent segmentation into multiple shots. |
| `seed` |  | integer \| null | no |  |  | Random seed enabling reproducible results, ranging from 0 to 2147483647. |
| `enable_safety_checker` |  | boolean | no | `true` |  | Moderation of both input and output, enforced on every request unless the account is authorized to disable it and the option is turned off. |

File parameters (`images`, `reference_video_urls`) 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": "A red fox trots through fresh snow at sunrise, soft golden light, shallow depth of field"
}
```

A fuller example:

```json
{
  "prompt": "A red fox trots through fresh snow at sunrise, soft golden light, shallow depth of field"
}
```

## 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/wan/v2.7/reference-to-video?wait=20" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $DOITONG_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "prompt": "A red fox trots through fresh snow at sunrise, soft golden light, shallow depth of field"
  }'

# 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/wan/v2.7/reference-to-video?wait=20", {
  method: "POST",
  headers,
  body: JSON.stringify({
    "prompt": "A red fox trots through fresh snow at sunrise, soft golden light, shallow depth of field"
  }),
});
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": "A red fox trots through fresh snow at sunrise, soft golden light, shallow depth of field",
}

# Run the model; wait up to 20 s for the finished result in the same call
r = requests.post(API + "/run/wan/v2.7/reference-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": "wan/v2.7/reference-to-video",
      "input": {
        "prompt": "A red fox trots through fresh snow at sunrise, soft golden light, shallow depth of field"
      },
      "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.
