MiniMax H3 — Image to video API

← MiniMax H3 Endpoint: POST https://api.higgsfield.ai/minimax/h3/image-to-video Endpoint ID: minimax/h3/image-to-video ▶Open API PlaygroundMiniMax H3 · Image to video↗

Usage notes

Resolution is fixed to the case-sensitive schema value “2K”. The prompt must contain non-whitespace text; the current provider serializer uses only its first 7,000 characters.
The output aspect ratio follows the input keyframe even when aspect_ratio is supplied. end_image_url is an optional last frame.

Quick start

Replace the example media URLs with publicly accessible URLs for your own files before submitting.
