# H3 Max Camera Controls API

> Viena attēla animēšana pa atslēgkadru kameras trajektoriju ar orbītas, pacēluma un attāluma vadību

Izmanto `image_url` kā pirmo kadru un pārvieto kameru pa `camera_trajectory`, kas ir 2 līdz 12 sakārtotu atslēgkadru saraksts. Pēc noklusējuma aina paliek nekustīga, mainās tikai kamera. Ilgums ir no 0.92 līdz 15 sekundēm, ar 480P, 768P vai 1080P izšķirtspēju. Uzvednes paplašināšanu var pielāgot.

- Model id: `minimax/h3-max/camera-controls`
- Made by: MiniMax
- Category: Image to Video
- Output: video
- Price: from $0.0325 / second (5 s ≈ $0.163) (cheapest run $0.163 (163 API credits))
- Run: `POST https://api.doitong.com/v1/run/minimax/h3-max/camera-controls`
- Quote: `POST https://api.doitong.com/v1/quote/minimax/h3-max/camera-controls`

## Pricing

Price: **from $0.0325 / second (5 s ≈ $0.163)** (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` = 768P: $0.052 (52 API credits) / second
- When `resolution` = 1080P: $0.104 (104 API credits) / second

The full example input below costs $0.163 = 163 API credits (5 s × 32.5 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/minimax/h3-max/camera-controls` 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 | no | `The same elements in the reference are rigid. Preserve every element exactly. The entire scene is frozen. Only the camera moves. no scene motion only camera motion` | ≤ 50000 characters | Video ģenerēšanas uzvedne, kas aizstāj noklusējuma fiksētas ainas darbību. Atstājot to tukšu vai neiekļaujot, atsauces aina paliek fiksēta un ir atļauta tikai kameras kustība. |
| `duration` |  | number | no | `5` | 0.92 – 15 | Pieprasītais ilgums sekundēs, pieļaujot faktisko video garumu aptuveni par 0,7 s lielāku nekā pieprasītais. |
| `resolution` |  | enum (string) | no | `480P` | `480P`, `768P`, `1080P` | Ģenerēšanas izšķirtspējas izvēle: 1080P izmanto 768P režīmā sākotnēji ģenerēta materiāla latento precizēšanu, nevis sākotnēju ģenerēšanu izvēlētajā izšķirtspējā. |
| `seed` |  | integer \| null | no |  |  | Nejaušas ģenerēšanas sākumvērtība; ja tā nav norādīta, tā tiek izvēlēta nejauši. |
| `enable_safety_checker` |  | boolean | no | `true` |  | Drošības pārbaudītāja aktivizēšana; true iespējo pārbaudi. |
| `prompt_expansion_mode` |  | string | yes | `balanced` |  | Uzvednes pārrakstīšanas intensitāte pirms ģenerēšanas: 'quality' izveido bagātīgāku uzvedni aptuveni līdz 30 s laikā, savukārt 'balanced' atbild aptuveni sekundes laikā. Izvēlieties 'disabled', lai izlaistu uzvednes paplašināšanu. |
| `image_url` | `image` | string (image URL) | yes |  | ≥ 1 characters | Attēla URL, kas nosaka video sākuma kadru. |
| `camera_trajectory` |  | array of object {time, azimuth, elevation, distance} | no |  | 2 – 12 items | Sakārtoti kameras atslēgkadri ar saglabātām pilnām rotācijām un kopējo azimuta kustību, kas ierobežota līdz 32 apgriezieniem. Ārpus atslēgkadru laika intervāla kamera saglabā pirmo pozu pirms tās laika atzīmes un pēdējo pozu līdz video beigām. |
| `camera_trajectory[].time` |  | number | yes |  | 0 – 1 | Normalizēts laiks video ietvaros, kur intervāls [0, 1] attiecīgi apzīmē tā sākumu un beigas. |
| `camera_trajectory[].azimuth` |  | number | yes |  |  | Kameras horizontālais leņķis ap objektu, mērīts grādos. |
| `camera_trajectory[].elevation` |  | number | yes |  | -90 – 90 | Kameras vertikālais leņķis ap objektu, mērīts grādos. |
| `camera_trajectory[].distance` |  | number | yes |  | > 0 | Attālums starp kameru un objektu, mērīts normalizētās ainas vienībās. |

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
{
  "image": "https://content.doitong.com/images/showcase/v3/gen_fox_cartoon.jpg",
  "prompt_expansion_mode": "balanced"
}
```

A fuller example:

```json
{
  "image_url": "https://content.doitong.com/images/showcase/v3/gen_fox_cartoon.jpg",
  "prompt_expansion_mode": "balanced"
}
```

## 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-max/camera-controls?wait=20" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $DOITONG_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "image_url": "https://content.doitong.com/images/showcase/v3/gen_fox_cartoon.jpg",
    "prompt_expansion_mode": "balanced"
  }'

# 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

  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 = {
    "image_url": "https://content.doitong.com/images/showcase/v3/gen_fox_cartoon.jpg",
    "prompt_expansion_mode": "balanced",

# Run the model; wait up to 20 s for the finished result in the same call
r = requests.post(API + "/run/minimax/h3-max/camera-controls", 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-max/camera-controls",
      "input": {
        "image_url": "https://content.doitong.com/images/showcase/v3/gen_fox_cartoon.jpg",
        "prompt_expansion_mode": "balanced"
      },
      "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.

### Output fields (`output`)

| Field | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `video` | object {url, content_type, file_name, file_size} | Modeļa ģenerētais video. |
| `expanded_prompt` | string \| null | Paplašināta uzvedne, kas sagatavota modelim, vai null, ja paplašināts teksts nav pieejams. null gadījumi ir atspējota paplašināšana, paplašināšana bez izmaiņām un paplašināšana, ko iekšēji apstrādā modeļa viesotais API. |
| `timings` | object \| null | Laika mērījumi sekundēs, pieejami tikai maršrutos, kas ziņo aizmugursistēmas laika mērījumus; pretējā gadījumā null. Ieraksts 'inference' mēra, cik ilgi DiT trokšņa noņemšana notika GPU aizmugursistēmā. |
