# Wan Text to Video API

> Text-to-video with 2-15 second clips, five aspect ratios and optional driving audio

Creates a video from a text prompt of up to 5000 characters. Output is 720p or 1080p, in 16:9, 9:16, 1:1, 4:3 or 3:4, lasting 2 to 15 seconds. You can supply `audio_url` (WAV or MP3, 3-30s) to drive the clip; without it the model generates matching background music. A negative prompt and prompt expansion are available.

- Model id: `wan/v2.7/text-to-video`
- Made by: Alibaba
- Category: Text to Video
- Output: video
- Price: from $0.10 / second (5 s ≈ $0.50) (cheapest run $0.50 (500 API credits))
- Run: `POST https://api.doitong.com/v1/run/wan/v2.7/text-to-video`
- Quote: `POST https://api.doitong.com/v1/quote/wan/v2.7/text-to-video`
- Docs page: https://doitong.com/developers/models/wan/v2.7/text-to-video

## Pricing

Price: **from $0.10 / second (5 s ≈ $0.50)** (the lowest tier; the quote prices your exact input). Billed per second of output (`duration`, default 15).

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

- When `resolution` = 1080p: $0.15 (150 API credits) / second

The full example input below costs $0.75 = 750 API credits (5 s × 150 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/wan/v2.7/text-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. |
| `audio_url` | `audio` | string (audio URL) \| null | no |  |  | Optional URL for driving audio, replacing the matching background music that the model would otherwise generate automatically. The supplied file must be WAV or MP3, 3–30 seconds long and no larger than 15 MB. |
| `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`, `11`, `12`, `13`, `14`, `15` | Length of the generated video, in seconds, from 2 to 15. |
| `negative_prompt` |  | string \| null | no |  |  | Content the video should exclude, limited to 500 characters. |
| `enable_prompt_expansion` |  | boolean | no | `true` |  | Enables intelligent rewriting of the prompt. |
| `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 (`audio`) 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/text-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/text-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/text-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/text-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.
