}Use the Google Veo 3.1 model to generate videos guided by 1–3 reference images. Supports 720p and 1080p resolutions, as well as 16:9 and 9:16 aspect ratios. The duration is fixed at 8 seconds. The reference type only supports asset.
This is an asynchronous API and only returns the task_id of the asynchronous task. You should use this task_id to request the Get Task Result API to retrieve the generated result.
Request Headers
string
required
Enum value:
application/jsonstring
required
Bearer authentication format: Bearer {{API Key}}.
Request Body
integer
Random seed used to reproduce generation results.Value range: [0, 4294967295]
string
required
Text prompt describing the desired video content.
string
default:"720p"
Output video resolution.Available values:
720p, 1080pstring
