###
API specification

####
Request

Payload |  |
--- | --- | ---
inputs* | string | The input text data (sometimes called “prompt”)
parameters | object |
num_frames | number | The num_frames parameter determines how many video frames are generated.
guidance_scale | number | A higher guidance scale value encourages the model to generate videos closely linked to the text prompt, but values too high may cause saturation and other artifacts.
negative_prompt | string[] | One or several prompt to guide what NOT to include in video generation.
num_inference_steps | integer | The number of denoising steps. More denoising steps usually lead to a higher quality video at the expense of slower inference.
seed | integer | Seed for the random number generator.

Headers |  |
--- | --- | ---
authorization | string | Authentication header in the form `'Bearer: hf_****'` when `hf_****` is a personal user access token with “Inference Providers” permission. You can generate one from your settings page.

####
Response

Body |  |
--- | --- | ---
video | unknown | The generated video returned as raw bytes in the payload.
