Request body
| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| model | string | Yes | Model ID, here seedance-2.0. |
| prompt | string | Yes | Text prompt describing the video, camera and motion. Max 5000 bytes (UTF-8; a Chinese character counts as 3). With multiple reference images you can address them as @Image1 / @Image2 in the prompt, e.g. "the character from @Image1 in the scene from @Image2"; without tokens the model decides on its own. |
| duration | integer | No | Length in seconds, any integer 4-15 (default 4); alias seconds. Billed per second. |
| resolution | string | No | Resolution: 720P. |
| size | string | No | Aspect ratio: 16:9 (default) / 9:16 / 21:9 / 4:3 / 1:1 / 3:4; alias aspect_ratio. |
| audio | boolean | No | Whether to generate an audio track, default true. |
| image | string | No | Image-to-video: include a reference image (used as the first frame by default) — a public URL, a data: URI, or base64; omit for text-to-video. |
| images | array | No | Multiple reference images, up to 4 for this model. Each item may be a public URL, a data: URI, or base64. Exceeding the cap is rejected, never truncated. Alias: reference_images. |
| image_role | string | No | How the reference images are used: first_frame (default; a second image becomes the last frame) or reference (subject/style references — use this for multiple images). Passing reference_images defaults to reference. |
| audio_reference | string / array | No | Public http(s) URL(s) for reference audio, up to 1. Must accompany a reference image or video; alias audio_references (do not send both). |
| video_references | array | No | Public http(s) URL(s) for source video, up to 3. Public links only (a data: URI fails upstream); cannot combine with a reference image or first/last frame. |

# 1) submit -> 202 {"id":"img_...","status":"queued"}

# image-to-video: also pass "image": "https://example.com/first-frame.png"
# 2) poll every ~5s until status=succeeded, then read data[0].url

}Async video job (submit → poll)
One model; params pick the type: tier=lite/fast/quality, resolution=720p/1080p/4k (1080p/4k need quality), size=16:9/9:16, duration=4s/6s/8s; add an image param for image-to-video (first frame). Returns HTTP 202 + a job id; poll until status=succeeded, result in data[0].url (a re-hosted mp4, ~1-2 min).
