Grok Imagine Video Edit Video API — Quick start
Grab a WaveSpeedAI API key, then call POST https://api.wavespeed.ai/api/v3/x-ai/grok-imagine-video/edit-video with your input as JSON. The endpoint returns a prediction id; poll the prediction endpoint until status flips to completed, then read the output URL from data.outputs[0]. Examples for Grok Imagine Video Edit Video below.
HTTP example
# Submit the prediction
curl -X POST "https://api.wavespeed.ai/api/v3/x-ai/grok-imagine-video/edit-video" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-H "Authorization: Bearer $WAVESPEED_API_KEY" \
-d '{
"prompt": "A cinematic shot of a city at sunset, soft golden light",
"video": "https://example.com/your-input.mp4",
"resolution": "480p"
}'
# Response includes a prediction id. Poll for the result:
curl -X GET "https://api.wavespeed.ai/api/v3/predictions/{request_id}/result" \
-H "Authorization: Bearer $WAVESPEED_API_KEY"
# When status is "completed", read the output from data.outputs[0].Node.js example
// npm install wavespeed
const WaveSpeed = require('wavespeed');
const client = new WaveSpeed(); // reads WAVESPEED_API_KEY from env
const result = await client.run("x-ai/grok-imagine-video/edit-video", {
"prompt": "A cinematic shot of a city at sunset, soft golden light",
"video": "https://example.com/your-input.mp4",
