# MiniMax H3 Reference to Video API

> Video dari hingga 9 referensi gambar, 3 video, dan 3 audio, berdurasi 5 hingga 15 detik, hingga 4K

Menghasilkan video dari `prompt` yang merujuk referensi berdasarkan urutan, seperti Image 1, Video 1, atau Audio 1. Berikan hingga 9 gambar, 3 klip video, dan 3 klip audio, dengan maksimum 12 file secara total. `duration` adalah 5 hingga 15 detik, `resolution` adalah 480P, 768P, 2K, atau 4K, dan `aspect_ratio` mencakup adaptive, 21:9, 16:9, 4:3, 1:1, 3:4, dan 9:16.

- Model id: `minimax/h3/reference-to-video`
- Made by: MiniMax
- Category: Reference to Video
- Output: video
- Price per second of your output video: from $0.05 / second of output video (cheapest run $0.05 (50 API credits))
- Run: `POST https://api.doitong.com/v1/run/minimax/h3/reference-to-video`
- Quote: `POST https://api.doitong.com/v1/quote/minimax/h3/reference-to-video`
- Docs page: https://doitong.com/id/developers/models/minimax/h3/reference-to-video

## Pricing

Price: **from $0.05 / second of output video** (the lowest tier; the quote prices your exact input). 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.

Price by tier:

- 480P: $0.05 / second of output video
- 768P: $0.06 / second of output video
- 2K: $0.13 / second of output video
- 4K: $0.16 / second of output video

The full example input below costs $0.65 = 650 API credits (5 s output video × $0.13 (2K)).

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/minimax/h3/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 – 50000 characters | Instruksi pembuatan video dengan referensi yang diidentifikasi berdasarkan jenis aset dan posisi dalam setiap daftar referensi, menggunakan label seperti Audio 1, Video 1, Image 1, Image 2, dan seterusnya. |
| `duration` |  | integer | no | `5` | 5 – 15 | Panjang video, diukur dalam detik. |
| `resolution` |  | enum (string) | no | `2K` | `480P`, `768P`, `2K`, `4K` | Pilih resolusi video yang dibuat, dengan 2K dan 4K diperoleh melalui upscaling basis 768P. Memilih 480P atau 768P menggunakan pembuatan native. |
| `seed` |  | integer \| null | no |  |  | Seed untuk pembuatan acak; jika tidak diberikan, seed dipilih secara acak. |
| `enable_safety_checker` |  | boolean | no | `true` |  | Aktivasi pemeriksa keamanan; true mengaktifkan pemeriksaan. |
| `prompt_expansion_mode` |  | string \| null | no | `balanced` |  | Upaya penulisan ulang prompt sebelum pembuatan: pilih 'quality' untuk prompt yang lebih kaya dengan durasi hingga sekitar 30 detik, atau 'fast' untuk hasil dalam kira-kira satu detik. Dengan 'balanced', pilihan dibuat untuk setiap permintaan; 'disabled' menonaktifkan perluasan. |
| `aspect_ratio` |  | enum (string) | no | `adaptive` | `adaptive`, `21:9`, `16:9`, `4:3`, `1:1`, `3:4`, `9:16` | Rasio aspek video output. |
| `reference_image_urls` | `images` | array of image URL | no |  | ≤ 9 items | URL gambar referensi subjek atau gaya, dengan batas maksimum bersama 12 file untuk semua referensi video dan audio. Identifikasi gambar ini dalam prompt berdasarkan posisi daftar menggunakan Image 1, Image 2, dan label berikutnya. |
| `reference_video_urls` |  | array of video URL | no |  | ≤ 3 items | URL video referensi gerakan atau lainnya, diidentifikasi berdasarkan posisi daftar dalam prompt menggunakan Video 1, Video 2, dan label berikutnya. Batas bersama untuk referensi gambar, video, dan audio adalah 12 file; setiap klip video harus berdurasi 2–15 detik dan totalnya tidak lebih dari 15 detik. |
| `reference_audio_urls` |  | array of audio URL | no |  | ≤ 3 items | Sediakan audio referensi sebagai URL dan identifikasi klip dalam prompt menggunakan Audio 1, Audio 2, dan label berikutnya. Setiap klip harus berdurasi 2–15 detik, dengan total audio tidak lebih dari 15 detik. Jenis referensi gambar, video, dan audio apa pun dapat disediakan sendiri atau digabungkan, dengan batas maksimum bersama 12 file. |

File parameters (`images`, `reference_video_urls`, `reference_audio_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:

  "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/minimax/h3/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/minimax/h3/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/minimax/h3/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": "minimax/h3/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.
