FAQ
Kling 4.0 API questions
Welche Modell-ID und welchen API-Endpunkt sollte ich verwenden?+
Senden Sie kling-v4 an POST /api-platform/v1/generations. Fragen Sie den zurückgegebenen PixMind taskId unter GET /api-platform/v1/tasks/{taskId} ab.
Wie wähle ich den Referenz-, Bearbeitungs- oder Erweiterungsmodus?+
Stellen Sie omni_reference_task_type zum Referenzieren, Bearbeiten oder Erweitern ein. Zum Bearbeiten und Erweitern ist ein Eingabevideo erforderlich. Die Erweiterung akzeptiert weder aspect_ratio noch audio_setting.
Was bedeutet der 720p-Eingangspreis?+
Es handelt sich um einen Preis von 0,105 USD pro abrechnungsfähiger Sekunde für Videobearbeitung und Videoreferenzen. Für einen Schnitt von 3,04 Sekunden ohne Dauer werden 4 + 4 = 8 Sekunden berechnet.
Welche Kling 4.0-Parameter werden abgelehnt?+
Die Route lehnt mode=std/pro/4k, negative_prompt, watermark=true und audio=false ab. Die Validierung und Medienprüfung erfolgt vor der Abrechnung. Ausgefallene Generationen werden vollständig erstattet.
What model ID should I use for the Kling 4.0 API?+
Use kling-v4 in the model field. This is the stable PixMind route identifier shown in the playground request JSON.
Which endpoint does the Kling 4.0 API use?+
Send POST requests to /v1/generations. Keep your API key on your server and pass it as a Bearer token.
Is the playground using a real API request?+
Yes. When you click Run model, PixMind forwards the displayed payload with the API key you entered. A successful request may create a paid task.
Does PixMind save the API key entered here?+
No. The playground keeps the key only in component memory and sends it for the current request; it is not written to browser storage.
Is API pricing the same as PixMind Studio pricing?+
No. API usage resolves through the apiPlatform pricing role and a separate pay-as-you-go ledger. Studio pricing includes the creation interface and product workflow services.
Why can the final price differ from the starting price?+
The entry price reflects the configuration displayed on this page. Resolution, duration, quality, audio, references, and output count can affect the final task price.
