The POV camera shakes violently with each step, with motion blur on the trees and bushes rushing past. Every few seconds, the character quickly turns their head, and the camera swings backward to reveal a massive T-Rex charging straight toward them. Mud explodes under its heavy footsteps, rain drips from its jaws, and it snaps its enormous teeth just behind the camera. Raindrops hit the lens, dirt and leaves splash upward, and flashes of lightning illuminate the dinosaur’s wet scales. The scene feels frantic, high-speed, hyper-realistic, and intensely cinematic",

API Endpoint

POSThttps://api.segmind.com/v1/wan-2.6-i2v

Parameters

imagerequired
string (uri)

Input image for video generation

promptrequired
string

Text prompt for video generation

audiooptional
string (uri)

Audio file (wav/mp3, 3-30s, ≤15MB) for voice/music synchronization

Default: null
durationoptional
integer

An enumeration.

Default: 5
Allowed values :
51015
enable_prompt_expansionoptional
boolean

If set to true, the prompt optimizer will be enabled

Default: true
multi_shotsoptional
boolean

Default: ""
resolutionoptional
string

An enumeration.

Default: "720p"
Allowed values :
"720p""1080p"
seedoptional
integer

Random seed for reproducible generation

Default: null

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/wan-2.6-i2v

    Submitreturns request_id, status_url, response_url

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

    Polluntil COMPLETED or FAILED

  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.
