Generate a video through keyframe images pinned to frame positions.
The client provides a convenient way to interact with the model API.
npm install --save @fal-ai/clientSet FAL_KEY as an environment variable in your runtime.
export FAL_KEY="YOUR_API_KEY"The client API handles the API submit protocol. It will handle the request status updates and return the result when the request is completed.
import { fal } from "@fal-ai/client";
const result = await fal.subscribe("blackforestlabs/flux-3-max/keyframes-to-video", {
input: {
prompt: "The woman picks up a brown felt fedora, lifts it onto her head with both hands and adjusts the brim, smiling at the camera. Soft studio light against a plain gray wall.",
keyframes: [{
frame_index: 0,
image_url: "https://storage.googleapis.com/falserverless/example_inputs/veo31-flf2v-input-1.jpeg"
}, {
frame_index: 120,
image_url: "https://storage.googleapis.com/falserverless/example_inputs/veo31-flf2v-input-2.jpeg"
}]
},
logs: true,
onQueueUpdate: (update) => {
if (update.status === "IN_PROGRESS") {
update.logs.map((log) => log.message).forEach(console.log);
}
},
});
console.log(result.data);
console.log(result.requestId);The API uses an API Key for authentication. It is recommended you set the FAL_KEY environment variable in your runtime when possible.
import { fal } from "@fal-ai/client";
fal.config({
credentials: "YOUR_FAL_KEY"
});The client API provides a convenient way to submit requests to the model.
import { fal } from "@fal-ai/client";
const { request_id } = await fal.queue.submit("blackforestlabs/flux-3-max/keyframes-to-video", {
input: {
prompt: "The woman picks up a brown felt fedora, lifts it onto her head with both hands and adjusts the brim, smiling at the camera. Soft studio light against a plain gray wall.",
keyframes: [{
frame_index: 0,
image_url: "https://storage.googleapis.com/falserverless/example_inputs/veo31-flf2v-input-1.jpeg"
}, {
frame_index: 120,
image_url: "https://storage.googleapis.com/falserverless/example_inputs/veo31-flf2v-input-2.jpeg"
}]
},
webhookUrl: "https://optional.webhook.url/for/results",
});You can fetch the status of a request to check if it is completed or still in progress.
import { fal } from "@fal-ai/client";
const status = await fal.queue.status("blackforestlabs/flux-3-max/keyframes-to-video", {
requestId: "764cabcf-b745-4b3e-ae38-1200304cf45b",
logs: true,
});Once the request is completed, you can fetch the result. See the Output Schema for the expected result format.
import { fal } from "@fal-ai/client";
const result = await fal.queue.result("blackforestlabs/flux-3-max/keyframes-to-video", {
requestId: "764cabcf-b745-4b3e-ae38-1200304cf45b"
});
console.log(result.data);
console.log(result.requestId);Some attributes in the API accept file URLs as input. Whenever that's the case you can pass your own URL or a Base64 data URI.
You can pass a Base64 data URI as a file input. The API will handle the file decoding for you. Keep in mind that for large files, this alternative although convenient can impact the request performance.
You can also pass your own URLs as long as they are publicly accessible. Be aware that some hosts might block cross-site requests, rate-limit, or consider the request as a bot.
We provide a convenient file storage that allows you to upload files and use them in your requests. You can upload files using the client API and use the returned URL in your requests.
import { fal } from "@fal-ai/client";
const file = new File(["Hello, World!"], "hello.txt", { type: "text/plain" });
const url = await fal.storage.upload(file);Read more about file handling in our file upload guide.
prompt string* requiredThe text prompt describing how the video moves between keyframes.
Keyframe images pinned to frame positions in the generated video. Up to 10 keyframes with unique frame_index values.
duration DurationEnumDuration of the generated video in seconds. Default value: "5"
Possible enum values: 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20
resolution ResolutionEnumResolution of the generated video. 1080p, 2K (1440p) and 4K (2160p) are upscaled from the 720p generation; exact dimensions depend on the aspect ratio. Default value: "720p"
Possible enum values: 720p, 1080p, 2K, 4K
reasoning_level ReasoningLevelEnumHow much effort the harness spends reasoning about the given prompt. Higher reasoning effort means slower generation time. Default value: "high"
Possible enum values: low, high
aspect_ratio AspectRatioEnumAspect ratio of the generated video. auto uses 16:9 for text prompts and follows the first image otherwise. Default value: "auto"
Possible enum values: auto, 21:9, 2:1, 16:9, 4:3, 1:1, 3:4, 9:16
generate_audio booleanWhether to generate audio for the video. Default value: true
seed integerThe seed to use for the generation. Random when not provided.
