# Kling Video · v3 · 4k · Image to Video API

> Преобразование изображения в видео v3 с нативным 4K, начальными и конечными кадрами, элементами и аудио

Анимирует `start_image_url`, при необходимости завершая ролик на `end_image_url`, непосредственно в видео 4K. Используйте `prompt` или список сцен `multi_prompt`; `duration` — от 3 до 15 секунд. `generate_audio` включён по умолчанию, а `negative_prompt` и `cfg_scale` (от 0 до 1) управляют соответствием запросу. На `elements` можно ссылаться как на @Element1.

- Model id: `kling-video/v3/4k/image-to-video`
- Made by: Kling
- Category: Image to Video
- Output: video
- Price: $0.42 / second (5 s ≈ $2.10) (cheapest run $2.10 (2100 API credits))
- Run: `POST https://api.doitong.ru/v1/run/kling-video/v3/4k/image-to-video`
- Quote: `POST https://api.doitong.ru/v1/quote/kling-video/v3/4k/image-to-video`
- Docs page: https://doitong.com/developers/models/kling-video/v3/4k/image-to-video

## Pricing

Price: **$0.42 / second (5 s ≈ $2.10)**. Billed per second of output (`duration`, default 15).

The full example input below costs $2.10 = 2100 API credits (5 s × 420 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/kling-video/v3/4k/image-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

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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| `enable_safety_checker` |  | boolean | no | `true` |  | Safety checks can be disabled only with account authorization; requests without authorization always undergo checking. |
| `prompt` |  | string \| null | no |  | ≤ 2500 characters | Text instructions used to generate the video. Supply exactly one of prompt or multi_prompt. |
| `multi_prompt` |  | array of object {prompt, duration} \| null | no |  |  | Prompt list that splits the video into multiple shots when supplied. |
| `multi_prompt[].prompt` |  | string | yes |  |  | Text instructions for the current shot. |
| `multi_prompt[].duration` |  | enum (string) | no | `5` | `1`, `2`, `3`, `4`, `5`, `6`, `7`, `8`, `9`, `10`, `11`, `12`, `13`, `14`, `15` | Length of the current shot, measured in seconds. |
| `start_image_url` | `image` | string (image URL) | yes |  |  | URL pointing to the image used for video generation. File size must not exceed 50 MB; width and height must each be at least 300px, with an aspect ratio between 0.40 and 2.50. |
| `duration` |  | enum (string) | no | `5` | `3`, `4`, `5`, `6`, `7`, `8`, `9`, `10`, `11`, `12`, `13`, `14`, `15` | Output video length, measured in seconds. |
| `generate_audio` |  | boolean | no | `true` |  | Native video audio generation toggle, supporting voices in Chinese or English and automatically translating any other language into English. For English speech, write acronyms and proper nouns in uppercase and everything else in lowercase. |
| `end_image_url` | `end_image` | string (image URL) \| null | no |  |  | URL pointing to the image used at the video's end. File size must not exceed 50 MB; width and height must each be at least 300px, with an aspect ratio between 0.40 and 2.50. |
| `elements` |  | array of object {frontal_image_url, reference_image_urls, video_url, voice_id} \| null | no |  |  | Characters or objects included as video elements, addressed in the prompt using @Element1, @Element2, etc. For each example, provide either a video or a set containing a frontal image plus reference images. |
| `elements[].frontal_image_url` |  | string (image URL) \| null | no |  |  | Front-facing image showing the element's main view. File size must not exceed 50 MB; width and height must each be at least 300px, with an aspect ratio between 0.40 and 2.50. |
| `elements[].reference_image_urls` |  | array of image URL \| null | no |  |  | Supply 1–3 additional reference images showing different angles. Each image must have an aspect ratio between 0.40 and 2.50, measure at least 300px in both dimensions, and be no larger than 50.0MB. |
| `elements[].video_url` |  | string (video URL) \| null | no |  |  | URL pointing to an element's video; only one element per request may include a video. The file must be at most 200 MB, with width and height each between 720px and 2160px. Duration must fall between 3 seconds and 10.05 seconds, and FPS between 24.0 and 60.0. |
| `elements[].voice_id` |  | string \| null | no |  |  | Voice ID assigned to the element. References to that element use its assigned voice. |
| `shot_type` |  | enum (string) | no | `customize` | `customize`, `intelligent` | Choose how multi-shot generation plans its shots; selecting 'intelligent' delegates the shot structure to the model. |
| `negative_prompt` |  | string | no | `blur, distort, and low quality` | ≤ 2500 characters |  |
| `cfg_scale` |  | number | no | `0.5` | 0 – 1 | Set how closely generation follows your prompt using CFG, short for Classifier Free Guidance. |

File parameters (`image`, `end_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
{
  "image": "https://content.doitong.com/images/showcase/v3/gen_fox_cartoon.jpg"
}
```

A fuller example:

```json
{
  "start_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.ru/v1/run/kling-video/v3/4k/image-to-video?wait=20" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $DOITONG_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "start_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.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/kling-video/v3/4k/image-to-video?wait=20", {
  method: "POST",
  headers,
  body: JSON.stringify({
    "start_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.ru/v1"
headers = {"Authorization": "Bearer " + os.environ["DOITONG_API_KEY"]}

payload = {
    "start_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/kling-video/v3/4k/image-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": "kling-video/v3/4k/image-to-video",
      "input": {
        "start_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.
