# Video API: text, image, reference, and editing workflows

> Choose Chinese video models by verified task, understand asynchronous jobs, and use a complete create, poll, download, and verify workflow.

- Canonical: https://chinaapi.ai/video-api/
- Updated: 2026-08-08
- Tasks: text-to-video, image-to-video, reference-to-video, video-editing, video-with-audio
- Endpoint: `POST /v1/video/generations; GET /v1/video/generations/{task_id}`
- Inputs: A prompt plus only the image, video, audio, or reference assets explicitly supported by the selected model.
- Outputs: A task record followed by a downloadable video artifact when the job succeeds.
- Lifecycle: Asynchronous. Create once, preserve the task ID, poll the same job to a terminal state, then download and validate the artifact.
- Limits: Duration, resolution, reference counts, audio generation, editing, and accepted asset types vary by model; an unlisted combination is unsupported.
