# Kling 2.6 Video Generation

>  - Async processing mode, returns task ID for subsequent queries
- Supports text-to-video, image-to-video (first frame/first-last frame control)
- Supports standard mode (720P) and professional mode (1080P)
- Professional mode supports automatic audio generation and voice selection

## Authorization

<ParamField header="Authorization" type="string" required>
  All API endpoints require Bearer Token authentication

  Get your API Key:

  Visit the [API Key Management Page](https://apimart.ai/keys) to get your API Key

  Add it to the request header:

  ```
  Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY
  ```

> **Note**: In `pro` mode, last frame and audio control are mutually exclusive and cannot be used together.

## Text-to-Video vs Image-to-Video

The system automatically determines the mode based on whether `image_urls` is provided: no images means text-to-video, with images means image-to-video.

| Parameter         | Text-to-Video            | Image-to-Video                                  |

| `image_urls`      | ❌ Not used               | ✅ Required (1-2 images, last frame needs `pro`) |
| `negative_prompt` | ✅ Optional               | ✅ Optional                                      |

## Use Cases

### Case 1: Text-to-Video (Standard Mode)

```json theme={null}
{
  "model": "kling-v2-6",
  "prompt": "A golden cat running on a sunlit meadow, slow motion, cinematic quality",
  "mode": "std",
  "duration": 5,
  "aspect_ratio": "16:9"
}
```

### Case 2: Text-to-Video (Pro Mode + Negative Prompt)

```json theme={null}
{
  "model": "kling-v2-6",
  "prompt": "Tokyo Shibuya crossing at night, neon lights reflected on wet ground, people walking with umbrellas",
  "negative_prompt": "blurry, low quality, distorted",
  "mode": "pro",
  "duration": 10,
  "aspect_ratio": "16:9"
}
```

### Case 3: Image-to-Video (First Frame)

```json theme={null}
{
  "model": "kling-v2-6",
  "prompt": "The person in the frame turns and smiles",
  "image_urls": ["https://example.com/portrait.jpg"],
  "mode": "std",
  "duration": 5,
  "aspect_ratio": "16:9"
}
```

### Case 4: Image-to-Video (First + Last Frame Control)

```json theme={null}
{
  "model": "kling-v2-6",
  "prompt": "City timelapse transitioning from day to night",
  "image_urls": ["https://example.com/day-city.jpg", "https://example.com/night-city.jpg"],
  "mode": "pro",
  "duration": 5
}
```

### Case 5: Pro Mode + Auto Audio

```json theme={null}
{
  "model": "kling-v2-6",
  "prompt": "Waves crashing against rocks, seagulls circling in the sky, lighthouse in the distance",
  "mode": "pro",
  "duration": 10,
  "audio": true,
  "aspect_ratio": "16:9"
}
```

<Note>
  **Query Task Results**

  Video generation is an async task that returns a `task_id` upon submission. Use the [Get Task Status](/en/api-reference/tasks/status) endpoint to query generation progress and results.
