Flash Text To Video
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("bytedance/seedance-2.5/flash/text-to-video", {
input: {
prompt: "An octopus finds a football in the ocean and excitedly calls its octopus friends to come and play. Cut scene to an octopus football game under the sea."
},
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("bytedance/seedance-2.5/flash/text-to-video", {
input: {
prompt: "An octopus finds a football in the ocean and excitedly calls its octopus friends to come and play. Cut scene to an octopus football game under the sea."
},
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("bytedance/seedance-2.5/flash/text-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("bytedance/seedance-2.5/flash/text-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 used to generate the video
resolution ResolutionEnumVideo resolution - 480p for faster generation, 720p for quality. Default value: "720p"
Possible enum values: 480p, 720p
duration DurationEnumDuration of the video in seconds. Supports 4 to 30 seconds, or auto to let the model decide based on the prompt. Default value: "auto"
Possible enum values: auto, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30
aspect_ratio AspectRatioEnumThe aspect ratio of the generated video. Use 16:9 for landscape, 9:16 for portrait/vertical, 1:1 for square, 21:9 for ultrawide cinematic, or auto to let the model decide. Default value: "auto"
Possible enum values: auto, 21:9, 16:9, 4:3, 1:1, 3:4, 9:16
generate_audio booleanWhether to generate synchronized audio for the video, including sound effects, ambient sounds, and lip-synced speech. The cost of video generation is the same regardless of whether audio is generated or not. Default value: true
bitrate_mode BitrateModeEnumOutput bitrate mode. 'high' requests a higher-quality, larger-file encode from the model; 'standard' uses the default bitrate. Default value: "standard"
Possible enum values: standard, high

Possible enum values: auto, H264, H265
end_user_id stringThe unique user ID of the end user.
