# Wan-2.1 Image-to-Video API

> Wan 2.1 image-to-video die één startafbeelding animeert vanuit een tekstprompt

Animeert één invoerafbeelding (`image_url`) volgens een `prompt`. De uitvoer is 480p of 720p, met beeldverhouding auto, 16:9, 9:16 of 1:1; afbeeldingen met een afwijkende verhouding worden centraal bijgesneden. `num_frames` is 81-100 bij 5-24 frames per seconde. Besturing omvat `negative_prompt`, `seed`, `guide_scale`, `shift` en een instelling `acceleration`.

- Model id: `wan-i2v`
- Made by: Alibaba
- Category: Image to Video
- Output: video
- Price: from $0.20 / video (cheapest run $0.20 (200 API credits))
- Run: `POST https://api.doitong.com/v1/run/wan-i2v`
- Quote: `POST https://api.doitong.com/v1/quote/wan-i2v`
- Docs page: https://doitong.com/nl/developers/models/wan-i2v

## Pricing

Price: **from $0.20 / video** (the lowest tier; the quote prices your exact input). Billed once per generated video.

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

- When `num_frames` > 81 and `resolution` = 720p: $0.50 (500 API credits) / video
- When `resolution` = 720p: $0.40 (400 API credits) / video
- When `num_frames` > 81: $0.25 (250 API credits) / video

The full example input below costs $0.40 = 400 API credits (1 video × 400 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-i2v` 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 |  |  | Tekstinstructies die de videogeneratie sturen. |
| `negative_prompt` |  | string | no | `bright colors, overexposed, static, blurred details, subtitles, style, artwork, painting, picture, still, overall gray, worst quality, low quality, JPEG compression residue, ugly, incomplete, extra fingers, poorly drawn hands, poorly drawn faces, deformed, disfigured, malformed limbs, fused fingers, still picture, cluttered background, three legs, many people in the background, walking backwards` |  | Negatieve prompt die op een video wordt toegepast. |
| `image_url` | `image` | string (image URL) | yes |  |  | URL van de bronafbeelding, waarbij de geselecteerde beeldverhouding bepaalt of preprocessing nodig is: een afwijking activeert schalen gevolgd door een uitsnede vanuit het midden. |
| `num_frames` |  | integer \| null | no | `81` | 81 – 100 | Aantal frames voor generatie, inclusief van 81 tot en met 100. |
| `frames_per_second` |  | integer \| null | no | `16` | 5 – 24 | Framerate van de gegenereerde video in frames per seconde, van 5 tot 24. |
| `seed` |  | integer \| null | no |  |  | Seed die generatie reproduceerbaar maakt. Als je deze instelt op None, wordt willekeurig een seed gekozen. |
| `resolution` |  | enum (string) | no | `720p` | `480p`, `720p` | Uitvoerresolutie van de video, 480p of 720p. |
| `num_inference_steps` |  | integer | no | `30` | 2 – 40 | Aantal samplingstappen; meer stappen verlengen de verwerkingstijd maar verbeteren de kwaliteit. |
| `guide_scale` |  | number | no | `5` | 1 – 10 | Sterkte van classifier-free guidance; een hogere schaal ruilt mogelijk kwaliteitsverlies in voor een betere overeenkomst met de prompt. |
| `shift` |  | number | no | `5` | 1 – 10 | Shift-instelling die bij het genereren van video wordt toegepast. |
| `enable_safety_checker` |  | boolean | no | `false` |  | Schakelaar voor veiligheidscontrole waarvan de uitgeschakelde instelling accountautorisatie vereist. Zonder die autorisatie wordt elke request gecontroleerd, ongeacht de instelling; true schakelt de controle in. |
| `enable_prompt_expansion` |  | boolean | no | `false` |  | Bepaalt of promptuitbreiding is ingeschakeld. |
| `acceleration` |  | enum (string) | no | `regular` | `none`, `regular` | Versnellingsinstelling, waarbij 'regular' de aanbevolen keuze is. Meer versnelling verlaagt de kwaliteit om de generatietijd te verkorten. |
| `aspect_ratio` |  | enum (string) | no | `auto` | `auto`, `16:9`, `9:16`, `1:1` | Verhoudingen van de gegenereerde video, automatisch geselecteerd uit de invoerafbeelding wanneer ingesteld op 'auto'. |

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
{
  "prompt": "A red fox trots through fresh snow at sunrise, soft golden light, shallow depth of field",
  "image": "https://content.doitong.com/images/showcase/v3/gen_fox_cartoon.jpg"
}
```

A fuller example:

```json
{
  "prompt": "A red fox trots through fresh snow at sunrise, soft golden light, shallow depth of field",
  "image_url": "https://content.doitong.com/images/showcase/v3/gen_fox_cartoon.jpg"
}
```

## 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-i2v?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",
    "image_url": "https://content.doitong.com/images/showcase/v3/gen_fox_cartoon.jpg"
  }'

# 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-i2v?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",
    "image_url": "https://content.doitong.com/images/showcase/v3/gen_fox_cartoon.jpg"
  }),
});
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",
    "image_url": "https://content.doitong.com/images/showcase/v3/gen_fox_cartoon.jpg",
}

# Run the model; wait up to 20 s for the finished result in the same call
r = requests.post(API + "/run/wan-i2v", 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-i2v",
      "input": {
        "prompt": "A red fox trots through fresh snow at sunrise, soft golden light, shallow depth of field",
        "image_url": "https://content.doitong.com/images/showcase/v3/gen_fox_cartoon.jpg"
      },
      "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.
