Parameters

durationrequired
integer

Set video duration. Choose 5 seconds for quick transitions, 8 seconds for detailed transitions.

first_frame_urlrequired
string (uri)

URL for the starting image. Use high-resolution images for best results.

Default: "https://segmind-inference-inputs.s3.amazonaws.com/412d207c-d812-43cd-b0e3-bc02410bf77f-pixverse-transition-first-image-input.jpg"
last_frame_urlrequired
string (uri)

URL for the ending image. Opt for quality images for seamless transition.

Default: "https://segmind-inference-inputs.s3.amazonaws.com/f42b68a9-4ece-4373-a57c-ee3b1f42020e-pixverse-transition-last-frame-input.jpg"
motion_moderequired
string

Motion type for animation. Select 'fast' for rapid changes, 'normal' for smooth flow.

Default: "normal"
Allowed values :
"normal""fast"
promptrequired
string

Describe the animation theme. Try 'a dramatic sunset over the ocean, rich color gradient'.

Default: "a dramatic sunset over the ocean, rich color gradient."

"360p""540p""720p""1080p"
seedoptional
integer

Seed for randomness. Choose any number to reproduce the effect.

Range: 1 - 999999

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/pixverse-4.5-transition

    Submitreturns request_id, status_url, response_url

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

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.
