Veo Video Generation
Generate AI videos through AceDataCloud's Google Veo API.
Setup: See authentication for token setup.
Quick Start

-d '{"action": "text2video", "prompt": "a whale breaching in slow motion at golden hour", "model": "veo3", "callback_url": "https://api.acedata.cloud/health"}'

Gotchas
- Veo 3 and 3.1 models generate native audio
- The
get1080paction usesvideo_id(from a prior generation), not a URL aspect_ratiois only valid for theimage2videoactionimage_urlsaccepts an array — up to 2 images forimage2video, up to 3 foringredients2videoveo31-fast-ingredientsrequires image input — it cannot do text-only generation- Documented
