# MiniMax H3 Text to Video API

> نموذج MiniMax (Hailuo) للفيديو بحركة حيوية، من 5 إلى 15 ثانية، حتى 4K.

ينشئ MiniMax H3 حركة تعبيرية للشخصيات والكاميرا من مطالبة. يعرض أصليًا بدقة 480P أو 768P؛ ويُرفع خيارا 2K و4K من نتيجة 768P. تتراوح المقاطع من 5 إلى 15 ثانية بست نسب أبعاد، ويتضمن معيد كتابة للمطالبة اختياريًا أربعة مستويات للجهد، ويمكنك تثبيت مسارك الصوتي كمسار صوتي.

- Category: Text to Video
- Output: video
- Price: from $0.05 / second (5 s ≈ $0.25) (cheapest run $0.25 (250 API credits))
- Run: `POST https://api.doitong.ru/v1/run/minimax/h3/text-to-video`

## Pricing

Price: **from $0.05 / second (5 s ≈ $0.25)** (the lowest tier; the quote prices your exact input). Billed per second of output (`duration`, default 5).

The full example input below costs $0.36 = 360 API credits (6 s × 60 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.ru/v1/quote/minimax/h3/text-to-video` 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| `prompt` |  | string | yes |  | 1 – 50000 characters | تعليمات نصية لتوليد الفيديو. |
| `duration` |  | integer | no | `5` | 5 – 15 | مدة الفيديو، مقاسة بالثواني. |
| `resolution` |  | enum (string) | no | `2K` | `480P`, `768P`, `2K`, `4K` | اختر دقة الفيديو المولد، حيث يتم الحصول على 2K و4K برفع دقة قاعدة 768P. يؤدي اختيار 480P أو 768P بدلًا من ذلك إلى استخدام التوليد الأصلي. |
| `seed` |  | integer \| null | no |  |  | بذرة التوليد العشوائي؛ إذا لم تُحدَّد، تُختار عشوائيًا. |
| `prompt_expansion_mode` |  | string \| null | no | `balanced` |  | مستوى الجهد لإعادة صياغة الموجّه قبل التوليد: اختر 'quality' للحصول على موجّه أغنى يستغرق إعداده ما يصل إلى نحو 30 ثانية، أو 'fast' للحصول على نتيجة في نحو ثانية. عند اختيار 'balanced'، يُحدَّد الخيار لكل طلب؛ أما 'disabled' فيعطّل توسيع الموجّه. |
| `target_audio_url` |  | string (audio URL) \| null | no |  | ≥ 1 characters | مسار صوتي بديل اختياري يُقدَّم عبر عنوان URL ببروتوكول HTTP(S) أو معرّف URI لبيانات base64؛ يجب ألا تقل مدة المقطع عن 2 ثانية وألا يتجاوز حجمه 15 MB. يحل الصوت المقدَّم محل المسار الصوتي المولَّد دون تغيير سرعة التشغيل: تُحذف المدة الزائدة من النهاية، وتُستكمل المقاطع الأقصر بصمت لتطابق مدة الفيديو. قد تُعاد معاينة الصوت إلى 96 kHz إذا كان معدل أخذ العينات مرتفعًا على نحو غير معتاد. |
| `aspect_ratio` |  | enum (string) | no | `16:9` | `21:9`, `16:9`, `4:3`, `1:1`, `3:4`, `9:16` | نسبة أبعاد فيديو المخرج. |

File parameters (`target_audio_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 white kitten chases a butterfly across a sunlit garden, gentle tracking camera, soft afternoon light"
}
```

A fuller example:

```json
{
  "prompt": "A white kitten chases a butterfly across a sunlit garden, gentle tracking camera, soft afternoon light",
  "duration": 6,
  "resolution": "768P"
}
```

## 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.ru/v1/run/minimax/h3/text-to-video?wait=20" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $DOITONG_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "prompt": "A white kitten chases a butterfly across a sunlit garden, gentle tracking camera, soft afternoon light",
    "duration": 6,
    "resolution": "768P"
  }'

# Still "queued" or "running"? Poll with the id from the response:
curl "https://api.doitong.ru/v1/requests/REQUEST_ID?wait=20" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $DOITONG_API_KEY"
```

### JavaScript

```javascript
const API = "https://api.doitong.ru/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/h3/text-to-video?wait=20", {
  method: "POST",
  headers,
  body: JSON.stringify({
    "prompt": "A white kitten chases a butterfly across a sunlit garden, gentle tracking camera, soft afternoon light",
    "duration": 6,
    "resolution": "768P"
  }),
});
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.ru/v1"
headers = {"Authorization": "Bearer " + os.environ["DOITONG_API_KEY"]}

payload = {
    "prompt": "A white kitten chases a butterfly across a sunlit garden, gentle tracking camera, soft afternoon light",
    "duration": 6,
    "resolution": "768P",
}

# Run the model; wait up to 20 s for the finished result in the same call
r = requests.post(API + "/run/minimax/h3/text-to-video", 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.ru/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/h3/text-to-video",
      "input": {
        "prompt": "A white kitten chases a butterfly across a sunlit garden, gentle tracking camera, soft afternoon light",
        "duration": 6,
        "resolution": "768P"
      },
      "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.
