MiniMax H3 Video Generation
Generate 4–15 second videos from text, up to nine images, or up to three audio references through one REST API, with unified async tasks, webhooks, billing, and CDN delivery.
One endpoint, three creative starting points
No action or separate paths: the API infers the mode from the supplied media.
Text to video
Generate clips directly from scene, motion, camera, and style descriptions.
Image to video
Use 1–9 images to control subjects, composition, characters, and visual style.
Audio guidance
Guide visual rhythm with up to three audio references, optionally combined with images and a prompt.
Async delivery
Return a task ID immediately and receive the final CDN video through polling or callback_url.

Parameters express the creative intent while the platform handles long-running execution, storage, and exact billing.

Common paths from media to video
One model covers creative exploration, still-image animation, and rhythm-driven clips.
Marketing clips

Character consistency
Use multiple images to constrain people, clothing, props, and scene style.
Rhythm visuals
Drive dance, camera motion, and visual changes with the rhythm of reference audio.

Use AceDataCloud authentication and tasks without building a separate media pipeline.
Get a token
Create an application and obtain a Bearer token.

Frequently asked questions
Key details about modes, media, duration, and tasks.
Do I need to pass action?
No. audio_urls selects audio guidance; otherwise image_urls selects image-to-video; prompt-only requests use text-to-video.
Which ratios and durations are supported?
Ratios are 16:9 and 9:16. Duration must be an integer from 4 to 15 and defaults to 4 seconds.
How do I avoid long-connection timeouts?
Set async: true for an immediate task_id, then query `/minimax/tasks`, or provide callback_url.
Are failed tasks charged?
No. Only tasks that complete with a video result are charged by final duration.
