Continue a clip with Wan 2.5: the last frame of your video opens a new 5 or 10 second segment with sound, and you get back one file with the original and the continuation joined, at 480p, 720p or 1080p. An optional audio track sets the new part's timing.

Send a request

Quickstart

Examples use the selected endpoint’s public parameter definitions. Replace the API key and example media, then send the request from your server.

API authentication

Keep the API key in the server environment variable SPICY_API_KEY. Use Bearer authentication and Content-Type: application/json for JSON requests.

Authorization: Bearer $SPICY_API_KEY
# Generate the idempotency key once; reuse it when retrying after a lost response.
export SPICY_IDEMPOTENCY_KEY="${SPICY_IDEMPOTENCY_KEY:-$(uuidgen)}"
curl -X POST https://api.spicyapi.ai/api/v1/jobs/createTask \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $SPICY_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "Idempotency-Key: $SPICY_IDEMPOTENCY_KEY" \

Generated from this model’s input schema — the same one the API validates every request against.

Input parameters

Place these fields inside the request body’s input object. Names and types match the API. Do not assume a default when none is specified.

video_urlstringRequired

The clip to continue: MP4, MOV or WebM, up to 60 seconds. Its final frame becomes the opening frame of the new segment, so cut it on a clean, sharp frame. The source is not billed.

Default
Not specified
Constraints
minLength:1
format:"uri"
contentMediaType:["video/mp4","video/webm","video/quicktime"]
seedintegerOptional

0 to 2147483647. Fix it when comparing resolution or length from the same clip; for a random draw, leave the field out rather than sending 0.

Default
Not specified
Constraints
minimum:0
maximum:2147483647
enable_prompt_expansionbooleanOptional

Off by default. Turn it on for a one-line idea; leave it off when the prompt is already a precise action.

Default
false
audio_urlstringOptional

Audio for the new segment: a voice line or music cue it should follow, so speech and beats land where you expect. WAV or MP3, 3 to 30 seconds and up to 15 MB. Audio longer than the new segment is cut at the end; if it is shorter, the rest of the segment is silent. Your source keeps its own sound.

Default
Not specified
Constraints
minLength:1
format:"uri"
contentMediaType:["audio/mpeg","audio/wav"]
duration_secondsintegerOptionalAffects price

Length of the new segment: exactly 5 or 10 seconds, default 5. Your source is added on top and is not billed. Short segments hold hands and hair better, so settle the look at five first.

Default
5
Allowed values
510
resolutionstringOptionalAffects price

Resolution the new segment is generated at: 480p, 720p or 1080p, default 720p. Match your source’s resolution so the seam shows no step in sharpness. The joined MP4 keeps your clip’s frame rate and its framing, with no black bars. To line the seam up, the picture may be trimmed or adjusted by a few percent at the edges. If the model returns a noticeably different shape, the new segment is scaled to fill your frame and centered, cropping what spills over. It sets the price.

Default
"720p"
Allowed values
"480p""720p""1080p"
negative_promptstringOptional

What must not appear in the new segment: a second person, captions, a prop the last frame keeps bringing back. Up to 500 characters.

Default
Not specified
Constraints
maxLength:500
promptstringOptional

Optional. What happens next: the action that follows, the camera move and a line about sound. The final frame already fixes the subject and the set, so spend the words on motion. Up to 1,500 characters.

Default
Not specified
Constraints
maxLength:1500

Track the task

HTTP 202 means the task was accepted, not completed. Save the returned taskId and query that task. Do not create another task while waiting for its result.

Accepted response
HTTP/1.1 202 Accepted
Location: /api/v1/jobs/recordInfo?taskId=job_01k3m8x9q2z4v7n5p6r8s0t1w3

{
  "code": 200,
  "msg": "success",
  "request_id": "req_example_create",
  "data": {
    "taskId": "job_01k3m8x9q2z4v7n5p6r8s0t1w3",
    "state": "queued",
    "estimatedCost": "0.750000"
  }
}

The accepted response includes the estimate so your app can show the same amount in task history and billing.

Read the job
curl --get "https://api.spicyapi.ai/api/v1/jobs/recordInfo" \
  --data-urlencode "taskId=$TASK_ID" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $SPICY_API_KEY"

Start polling at about 2 seconds and gradually increase the interval. Stop at a terminal state. After a connection failure, query the original taskId. Retry creation only with the original idempotency key and body.

Or let the callback find you
import { verifyWebhook } from "@spicyapi/sdk";

// express.raw keeps the bytes we signed; express.json never matches.
app.post("/hooks/spicy", express.raw({ type: "application/json" }), (req, res) => {
  const { payload } = verifyWebhook({
    rawBody: req.body,
    timestamp: req.header("X-Webhook-Timestamp"),
    signature: req.header("X-Webhook-Signature"),
    payloadVersion: Number(req.header("X-Webhook-Payload-Version")),
    secret: process.env.SPICY_WEBHOOK_SECRET,
  });
  res.status(200).end();
  void handleFinishedTask(payload);
});

Pass callBackUrl when you create the task and the finished record is POSTed to you — no polling loop at all. Every delivery carries X-Webhook-Timestamp, X-Webhook-Signature and X-Webhook-Payload-Version. The signature is a base64 HMAC-SHA256 over taskId.timestamp.sha256(body), so it must be checked against the raw bytes: parsing the JSON and re-serialising it changes them and the check will fail. Failed deliveries are retried, so the same taskId can arrive twice — make the handler idempotent. Answer 2xx first and do the work afterwards; a slow handler is treated as a failed delivery.

Read the result

Consume output only when state is succeeded. On failure, use errorCode, errorMessage and request_id to investigate. Example costs and states do not represent an actual bill.

For each available asset, open or download assets[].url directly without an API Authorization header. The signed URL expires at expiresAt; poll the task again to refresh it while the asset remains within its retention period. A pending or unavailable asset has no URL. Treat signed URLs as private.
