Example request

{
  "prompt": "A native 2K product film where the reference image controls the object, the reference clip controls the camera move, and the final frame lands on a clean hero composition",
  "duration": "5",
  "aspectRatio": "16:9",
  "resolution": "2k",
  "aigcWatermark": false
}
# Set VIDMAGE_IDEMPOTENCY_KEY to a unique value for this task; preserve it for transport retries.
curl -X POST "https://vidmage.ai/api/v1/minimax-h3-ai-video-generator/submit" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" \
  -H "Idempotency-Key: ${VIDMAGE_IDEMPOTENCY_KEY}" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"prompt":"A native 2K product film where the reference image controls the object, the reference clip controls the camera move, and the final frame lands on a clean hero composition","duration":"5","aspectRatio":"16:9","resolution":"2k","aigcWatermark":false}'
# -> { "success": true, "taskId": "...", "creditsConsumed": ... }

Task results and recovery

URL of the generated video. Read videoUrl from the completed query response. Preserve taskId while the task is running.

curl -X POST "https://vidmage.ai/api/v1/minimax-h3-ai-video-generator/query" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{ "taskId": "TASK_ID_FROM_SUBMIT" }'
# -> { "success": true, "data": { "status": "...", "videoUrl": "https://..." } }

Submission and task queries report the available task and usage information. A timeout is not a confirmed failure. Recover the existing task instead of resubmitting.

For face selection and error recovery, follow Task lifecycle. MCP uses the normalized taskId argument in get_task_result, including capabilities whose REST identifier is requestId.
