## Usage notes

* Setting multi\_shots=true also enables prompt\_extend, even if prompt\_extend was false.

## Quick start

<CodeGroup>
  ```bash cURL theme={"theme":{"light":"github-light","dark":"github-dark"}}
  curl --request POST \
    --url https://api.higgsfield.ai/wan/v2.6/text-to-video \
    --header "Authorization: Key ${HF_API_KEY_ID}:${HF_API_KEY_SECRET}" \
    --header "Content-Type: application/json" \
    --data '{
    "prompt": "A cinematic wide shot of ocean waves at sunset, with gentle camera movement."
  }'
  ```

  ```python Python theme={"theme":{"light":"github-light","dark":"github-dark"}}
  import higgsfield_client

  arguments = (
      {'prompt': 'A cinematic wide shot of ocean waves at sunset, with gentle camera '
                 'movement.'}
  )
  result = higgsfield_client.subscribe(
      "wan/v2.6/text-to-video",
      arguments=arguments,
  )
  print(result["video"]["url"])
  ```

  ```typescript TypeScript theme={"theme":{"light":"github-light","dark":"github-dark"}}

## Response

Submission returns a request handle. Poll `status_url` until `status` is `completed`, or use [webhooks](/docs/how-to/webhooks).

```json Accepted theme={"theme":{"light":"github-light","dark":"github-dark"}}
{
  "status": "queued",
  "request_id": "REQUEST_ID",
  "status_url": "https://api.higgsfield.ai/requests/REQUEST_ID/status",
  "cancel_url": "https://api.higgsfield.ai/requests/REQUEST_ID/cancel"
}
```

A completed response includes the following output fields:

```json theme={"theme":{"light":"github-light","dark":"github-dark"}}
{
  "status": "completed",
  "request_id": "REQUEST_ID",
  "video": {
    "url": "https://example.com/output.mp4"
  }
}
```

See [polling](/docs/concepts/polling), [request errors](/docs/concepts/errors) and [authentication](/docs/authentication) for shared request handling.
