Playground API

API

1. Calling the API#

Install the client#

The client provides a convenient way to interact with the model API.

npm install --save @fal-ai/client

Migrate to @fal-ai/client

The @fal-ai/serverless-client package has been deprecated in favor of @fal-ai/client. Install the new package and update your imports — see client setup.

Setup your API Key#

Set FAL_KEY as an environment variable in your runtime.

export FAL_KEY="YOUR_API_KEY"

Submit a request#

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("fal-ai/wan/v2.2-a14b/image-to-video", {
  input: {
    image_url: "https://storage.googleapis.com/falserverless/model_tests/wan/dragon-warrior.jpg",
    prompt: "The white dragon warrior stands still, eyes full of determination and strength. The camera slowly moves closer or circles around the warrior, highlighting the powerful presence and heroic spirit of the character."
  },
  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);

2. Authentication#

The API uses an API Key for authentication. It is recommended you set the FAL_KEY environment variable in your runtime when possible.

API Key#

In an environment where you cannot set environment variables, you can configure the API key manually on the client.

import { fal } from "@fal-ai/client";

fal.config({
  credentials: "YOUR_FAL_KEY"
});

Protect your API Key

When running code on the client-side (e.g. in a browser, mobile app or GUI applications), make sure to not expose your FAL_KEY. Instead, use a server-side proxy to make requests to the API. For more information, check out our server-side integration guide.

3. Queue#

Long-running requests

For long-running requests, such as training jobs or models with slower inference times, it is recommended to check the Queue status and rely on Webhooks instead of blocking while waiting for the result.

Submit a request#

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("fal-ai/wan/v2.2-a14b/image-to-video", {
  input: {
    image_url: "https://storage.googleapis.com/falserverless/model_tests/wan/dragon-warrior.jpg",
    prompt: "The white dragon warrior stands still, eyes full of determination and strength. The camera slowly moves closer or circles around the warrior, highlighting the powerful presence and heroic spirit of the character."
  },
  webhookUrl: "https://optional.webhook.url/for/results",
});

Fetch request status#

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("fal-ai/wan/v2.2-a14b/image-to-video", {
  requestId: "764cabcf-b745-4b3e-ae38-1200304cf45b",
  logs: true,
});

Get the result#

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("fal-ai/wan/v2.2-a14b/image-to-video", {
  requestId: "764cabcf-b745-4b3e-ae38-1200304cf45b"
});
console.log(result.data);
console.log(result.requestId);

4. Files#

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.

Data URI (base64)#

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.

Hosted files (URL)#

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.

Uploading files#

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);

Auto uploads

The client will auto-upload the file for you if you pass a binary object (e.g. File, Data).

Read more about file handling in our file upload guide.

5. Schema#

Input#

image_url string* required

URL of the input image. If the input image does not match the chosen aspect ratio, it is resized and center cropped.

prompt string* required

The text prompt to guide video generation.

num_frames integer

Number of frames to generate. Must be between 17 to 161 (inclusive). Default value: 81

frames_per_second integer

Frames per second of the generated video. Must be between 4 to 60. When using interpolation and adjust_fps_for_interpolation is set to true (default true,) the final FPS will be multiplied by the number of interpolated frames plus one. For example, if the generated frames per second is 16 and the number of interpolated frames is 1, the final frames per second will be 32. If adjust_fps_for_interpolation is set to false, this value will be used as-is. Default value: 16

negative_prompt string

Negative prompt for video generation. Default value: ""

seed integer

Random seed for reproducibility. If None, a random seed is chosen.

resolution ResolutionEnum

Resolution of the generated video (480p, 580p, or 720p). Default value: "720p"

Possible enum values: 480p, 580p, 720p

aspect_ratio AspectRatioEnum

Aspect ratio of the generated video. If 'auto', the aspect ratio will be determined automatically based on the input image. Default value: "auto"

Possible enum values: auto, 16:9, 9:16, 1:1

num_inference_steps integer

Number of inference steps for sampling. Higher values give better quality but take longer. Default value: 27

enable_safety_checker boolean

If set to true, input data will be checked for safety before processing. Disabling it requires account authorization; unauthorized requests are always checked.

enable_output_safety_checker boolean

If set to true, output video will be checked for safety after generation.

enable_prompt_expansion boolean

Whether to enable prompt expansion. This will use a large language model to expand the prompt with additional details while maintaining the original meaning.

acceleration AccelerationEnum

Acceleration level to use. The more acceleration, the faster the generation, but with lower quality. The recommended value is 'regular'. Default value: "regular"

Possible enum values: none, regular

guidance_scale float

Classifier-free guidance scale. Higher values give better adherence to the prompt but may decrease quality. Default value: 3.5

guidance_scale_2 float

Guidance scale for the second stage of the model. This is used to control the adherence to the prompt in the second stage of the model. Default value: 3.5

shift float

Shift value for the video. Must be between 1.0 and 10.0. Default value: 5

interpolator_model InterpolatorModelEnum

The model to use for frame interpolation. If None, no interpolation is applied. Default value: "film"

Possible enum values: none, film, rife

num_interpolated_frames integer

Number of frames to interpolate between each pair of generated frames. Must be between 0 and 4. Default value: 1

adjust_fps_for_interpolation boolean

If true, the number of frames per second will be multiplied by the number of interpolated frames plus one. For example, if the generated frames per second is 16 and the number of interpolated frames is 1, the final frames per second will be 32. If false, the passed frames per second will be used as-is. Default value: true

video_quality VideoQualityEnum

The quality of the output video. Higher quality means better visual quality but larger file size. Default value: "high"

Possible enum values: low, medium, high, maximum

video_write_mode VideoWriteModeEnum

The write mode of the output video. Faster write mode means faster results but larger file size, balanced write mode is a good compromise between speed and quality, and small write mode is the slowest but produces the smallest file size. Default value: "balanced"

Possible enum values: fast, balanced, small

end_image_url string

URL of the end image.

{
  "image_url": "https://storage.googleapis.com/falserverless/model_tests/wan/dragon-warrior.jpg",
  "prompt": "The white dragon warrior stands still, eyes full of determination and strength. The camera slowly moves closer or circles around the warrior, highlighting the powerful presence and heroic spirit of the character.",
