# MiniMax (Hailuo AI) Video 01 Subject Reference API

> Video 01 کلپ، حوالہ جاتی تصویر کے ذریعے موضوع کے چہرے اور شناخت کو مستقل رکھتے ہوئے

ٹیکسٹ پرامپٹ (زیادہ سے زیادہ 2000 حروف) سے ویڈیو تیار کرتے ہوئے `subject_reference_image_url` استعمال کرتا ہے تاکہ موضوع کی ظاہری شکل، بشمول چہرے کی خصوصیات اور شناخت، مستقل رہے۔ یہ پہلے فریم کی اینیمیشن سے مختلف ہے، کیونکہ تصویر ابتدائی فریم کے بجائے ظاہر ہونے والے شخص کی رہنمائی کرتی ہے۔ `prompt_optimizer` بطورِ ڈیفالٹ فعال ہے۔

- Model id: `minimax/video-01-subject-reference`
- Made by: MiniMax
- Category: Image to Video
- Output: video
- Price: $0.50 / video (cheapest run $0.50 (500 API credits))
- Run: `POST https://api.doitong.com/v1/run/minimax/video-01-subject-reference`
- Quote: `POST https://api.doitong.com/v1/quote/minimax/video-01-subject-reference`
- Docs page: https://doitong.com/ur/developers/models/minimax/video-01-subject-reference

## Pricing

Price: **$0.50 / video**. Billed once per generated video.

The full example input below costs $0.50 = 500 API credits (1 video × 500 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/video-01-subject-reference` 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

| Parameter | Canonical name | Type | Required | Default | Allowed values / range | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| `enable_safety_checker` |  | boolean | no | `true` |  | false سیٹ کر کے اسکریننگ نرم کی جا سکتی ہے، بشرطیکہ کال کرنے والا مجاز ہو۔ |
| `prompt` |  | string | yes |  | ≤ 2000 characters |  |
| `subject_reference_image_url` |  | string (image URL) | yes |  |  | موضوع کی ظاہری شکل یکساں رکھنے کے لیے استعمال ہونے والا حوالہ تصویر URL۔ |
| `prompt_optimizer` |  | boolean | no | `true` |  | ماڈل کے پرامپٹ optimizer کی activation۔ |

File parameters (`subject_reference_image_url`) 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",
  "subject_reference_image_url": "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",
  "subject_reference_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/minimax/video-01-subject-reference?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",
    "subject_reference_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/minimax/video-01-subject-reference?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",
    "subject_reference_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",
    "subject_reference_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/minimax/video-01-subject-reference", 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/video-01-subject-reference",
      "input": {
        "prompt": "A red fox trots through fresh snow at sunrise, soft golden light, shallow depth of field",
        "subject_reference_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.
