# Lynx API

> Imej-ke-video yang mengekalkan identiti subjek secara konsisten, dengan 480p hingga 720p dan 9 hingga 81 bingkai

Menganimasikan imej subjek (`image_url`) mengikut `prompt` teks. Pengekalan identiti boleh dilaraskan dengan `ip_scale` dan `strength` (kedua-duanya 0 hingga 2). Resolusi boleh berupa 480p, 580p atau 720p, nisbah aspek 16:9, 9:16 atau 1:1, dan `num_frames` berjulat antara 9 hingga 81 pada 5 hingga 30 bingkai sesaat. Turut mendedahkan prompt negatif, dua skala panduan, 1 hingga 75 langkah inferens dan seed.

- Model id: `bytedance/lynx`
- Made by: ByteDance
- Category: Image to Video
- Output: video
- Price per second of your output video: $0.60 / second of output video (cheapest run $0.60 (600 API credits))
- Run: `POST https://api.doitong.com/v1/run/bytedance/lynx`
- Quote: `POST https://api.doitong.com/v1/quote/bytedance/lynx`
- Docs page: https://doitong.com/ms/developers/models/bytedance/lynx

## Pricing

Price: **$0.60 / 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 $3.038 = 3038 API credits (5.0625 s output video × $0.60).

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/bytedance/lynx` 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| `image_url` | `image` | string (image URL) | yes |  |  | URL yang menunjuk kepada imej subjek yang digunakan untuk menjana video. |
| `prompt` |  | string | yes |  |  | Arahan teks yang mengarahkan penjanaan video. |
| `negative_prompt` |  | string | no | `Bright tones, overexposed, blurred background, static, subtitles, style, works, paintings, images, overall gray, worst quality, low quality, JPEG compression residue, ugly, incomplete, extra fingers, poorly drawn hands, poorly drawn faces, deformed, disfigured, misshapen limbs, fused fingers, still picture, messy background, three legs, many people in the background, walking backwards` |  | Terangkan kandungan video yang tidak dikehendaki dalam prompt negatif ini untuk menjauhkan penjanaan daripadanya. |
| `num_inference_steps` |  | integer | no | `50` | 1 – 75 | Bilangan langkah pensampelan, yang menukar masa pemprosesan lebih lama dengan kualiti lebih baik apabila bilangannya meningkat. |
| `seed` |  | integer \| null | no |  |  | Seed yang menjadikan penjanaan boleh diulang. Menetapkannya kepada None memilih seed secara rawak. |
| `resolution` |  | enum (string) | no | `720p` | `480p`, `580p`, `720p` | Resolusi video output, dipilih daripada 480p, 580p atau 720p. |
| `aspect_ratio` |  | enum (string) | no | `16:9` | `16:9`, `9:16`, `1:1` | Nisbah bidang video output, dipilih daripada 16:9, 9:16 atau 1:1. |
| `ip_scale` |  | number | no | `1` | 0 – 2 | Tetapkan sejauh mana video harus mengekalkan identiti orang atau subjek yang digambarkan dalam imej rujukan. |
| `strength` |  | number | no | `1` | 0 – 2 | Laraskan sejauh mana video yang dijana menggunakan imej rujukan dengan menetapkan skalanya. |
| `frames_per_second` |  | integer | no | `16` | 5 – 30 | Kadar bingkai video output dalam bingkai sesaat, terhad kepada 5 hingga 30. |
| `guidance_scale` |  | number | no | `5` | 1 – 20 | Kekuatan panduan tanpa pengelas, yang menukar kemungkinan kehilangan kualiti dengan padanan prompt yang lebih rapat apabila skala meningkat. |
| `guidance_scale_2` |  | number | no | `2` | 0 – 10 | Skala panduan imej untuk penjanaan video, mengimbangi kesetiaan kepada imej rujukan dengan kualiti: peningkatan skala memihak kepada padanan yang lebih rapat tetapi berisiko menghasilkan kualiti lebih rendah. |
| `num_frames` |  | integer | no | `81` | 9 – 81 | Bilangan bingkai video output, terhad kepada 9 hingga 100. |
| `enable_safety_checker` |  | boolean | no | `true` |  | Pemeriksaan boleh dilonggarkan dengan menetapkannya kepada false, jika pemanggil dibenarkan. |

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

A fuller example:

```json
{
  "image_url": "https://content.doitong.com/images/showcase/v3/gen_fox_cartoon.jpg",
  "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/bytedance/lynx?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": "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/bytedance/lynx?wait=20", {
  method: "POST",
  headers,
  body: JSON.stringify({
    "image_url": "https://content.doitong.com/images/showcase/v3/gen_fox_cartoon.jpg",
    "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 = {
    "image_url": "https://content.doitong.com/images/showcase/v3/gen_fox_cartoon.jpg",
    "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/bytedance/lynx", 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": "bytedance/lynx",
      "input": {
        "image_url": "https://content.doitong.com/images/showcase/v3/gen_fox_cartoon.jpg",
        "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.
