aspect_ratiorequiredstringDefines the width to height ratio of the video. Use 16:9 for landscapes or 9:16 for vertical videos.
"16:9""16:9""4:3""1:1""3:4""9:16"durationrequiredintegerSet video length in seconds. Opt for 5 seconds for quick previews, 10 for detailed scenes.
5510promptrequiredstringDetail the animation scene vividly. E.g., A sunset beach scene with waves lapping, people playing, sky turning orange.
resolutionrequiredstringChoose video clarity; 720p for most uses, 480p for faster processing.
"720p""480p""720p""1080p"camera_fixedoptionalbooleanWhether to fix the camera position.
falseimage_urloptionalstring (uri)URL to the first frame image for video generation. Use this to specify the starting frame of your video. Can be used alone or together with last_frame_url.
last_frame_urloptionalstring (uri)URL to the last frame image for video generation. Use this together with first_frame_url to specify both the starting and ending frames of your video. The model will generate smooth transitions between the two frames. Note: Requires first_frame_url to be provided.
seedoptionalintegerDefine a seed for consistent outputs. Any number 1-999999 suffices.
skip_moderationoptionalbooleanBypass BytePlus content moderation pre-filter. Useful when generating artistic content or faces that may trigger false positives. Baseline BytePlus safety policies still apply.
falseResponse 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
POST /v2/seedance-proSubmit — returns request_id, status_url, response_url
- 2
GET /v2/requests/{id}/statusPoll — until COMPLETED or FAILED
- 3
GET /v2/requests/{id}Result — final response body
Status states
- 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.
