API Endpoint

POSThttps://api.segmind.com/v1/p-video

Parameters

promptrequired
string

Text prompt describing the video scene, subject, action, and style. Be specific with camera angles, lighting, and motion for best results.

aspect_ratiooptional
string

Controls the output video dimensions. Use 16:9 for YouTube/widescreen, 9:16 for TikTok/Reels, 1:1 for social posts.

Default: "16:9"
Allowed values :
"1:1""16:9""9:16""4:3""3:4""3:2""2:3"
durationoptional
integer

Length of the generated video in seconds (3-15). Use 3-5s for quick loops or ads, 10-15s for narrative scenes.

Default: 5Range: 3 - 15
seedoptional
integer

Fixed seed for reproducible outputs across runs. Set to -1 for random generation each time.

Default: 12345Range: -1 - 999999999999999

Response Type

Returns: Video

Asynchronous requests (v2)

Use Async for video, long-running (>~60s), or high-concurrency workloads; Sync is simplest for fast image & LLM calls. Async submits a request and you poll it to completion.

  1. 1
    POST /v2/p-video

    Submitreturns request_id, status_url, response_url

  2. 2
    GET /v2/requests/{id}/status

  3. 3
    GET /v2/requests/{id}

Status states

QUEUEDAccepted, waiting for a worker
PROCESSINGRunning on a worker
COMPLETEDDone — result body is ready
FAILEDErrored (incl. content/RAI blocks)
  • A FAILED request is served as HTTP 422 — the body still carries the error detail.
  • An unknown or expired request_id returns HTTP 404.
  • Results are retained for 1 hour, then expire.
  • Content / RAI blocks surface as FAILED, not a separate state.
  • Track completion by polling the status endpoint.
