Make a video of a creator saying a script

View as Markdown

POST /api/v2/creator_video

A talking video from a creator in GET /creators. Gated preview. Needs the generate scope.

Headers

NameTypeRequiredDescription
Idempotency-Keystringno1-255 visible ASCII characters you make up for this request (a UUID is fine). Send the same key to retry safely: you get the first job back instead of paying twice. Reusing a key for a different request answers 409 IDEMPOTENCY_CONFLICT. Wins over idempotency_key in the body.

Request body (JSON)

NameTypeRequiredDescription
creator_idstringyesFrom list_creators.
scriptstringyesWhat the creator says to camera, word for word. Length of the video follows the script.
resolution“480p” | “720p”no
dry_runbooleannotrue = only check the request and return the price in credits. Nothing is made, nothing is spent.
idempotency_keystringnoA unique string you make up for this request. Retry with the same key and you get the first result back instead of paying again.
callback_urlstringnoOptional. A public https:// link. When the job finishes (done, failed or canceled) we POST the finished result here, signed. See the docs for checking the signature. Polling get_result still works.

Example

curl -X POST https://app.diffusr.ai/api/v2/creator_video \
-H "Authorization: Bearer $DIFFUSR_KEY" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-H "Idempotency-Key: $(uuidgen)" \
-d '{
"creator_id": "CREATOR_ID_FROM_LIST_CREATORS",
"script": "I tried this for a week and I am not going back."
}'

The same call as a dry run (the price, nothing made, nothing spent):

curl -X POST https://app.diffusr.ai/api/v2/creator_video \
-H "Authorization: Bearer $DIFFUSR_KEY" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-H "Idempotency-Key: $(uuidgen)" \
-d '{
"creator_id": "CREATOR_ID_FROM_LIST_CREATORS",
"script": "I tried this for a week and I am not going back.",
"dry_run": true
}'

Errors

Every error body is { error, code, request_id, ... }. All codes and what to do.

  • 401: Missing, wrong, revoked or expired API key (code UNAUTHORIZED, KEY_REVOKED, KEY_EXPIRED).
  • 402: Not enough credits, or an API budget would be passed (INSUFFICIENT_CREDITS, BUDGET_EXCEEDED).
  • 403: The key may not do this (SCOPE_DENIED, MODEL_NOT_ALLOWED, TEST_MODE_UNSUPPORTED, ACCOUNT_BLOCKED, allowance_exceeded).
  • 409: IDEMPOTENCY_CONFLICT or CALLBACK_NOT_RETRYABLE.
  • 413: The request or file is too large (TOO_LARGE, REFERENCE_TOO_LARGE).
  • 422: The request is not valid (VALIDATION_FAILED, INVALID_JSON, PREFLIGHT_FAILED, CALLBACK_URL_INVALID, REFERENCE_*). `issues` lists each problem. Nothing was charged.
  • 429: Too many requests or jobs (RATE_LIMITED, CONCURRENCY_LIMIT, UPLOAD_QUOTA, …). Wait Retry-After seconds, then retry.
  • 500: Our fault (INTERNAL_ERROR). Quote request_id to support.
  • 503: Paused or busy (API_PAUSED, MODEL_PAUSED, PROVIDER_PAUSED, PROVIDER_BUSY, UNAVAILABLE). Wait Retry-After seconds, then retry.

Charges

Costs credits (1 credit = $0.01). Send `dry_run: true` first: it answers with the price and spends nothing. You are charged when the result is delivered and never more than the quoted price. Work that fails, is canceled before it runs, or is never delivered is not charged. A test key quotes the same price and charges nothing. It is priced at the outcome rate: a result we shape for you, so the rate is higher than the model prices on the Prices page. Use `dry_run: true` for the exact price.
