Seedance 2.0 Mini

Seedance 2.0 Mini is a lighter variant in ByteDance's Seedance 2.0 video model family. It is positioned for teams that want the cinematic prompt understanding and multimodal generation style of Seedance 2.0 in a smaller, more iteration-friendly package. It is suited to fast concepting, quicker turnaround, and broader throughput when the full flagship model is not required.

API Options
Platform-level options for task execution and delivery.
taskType
stringrequiredvalue: videoInferenceIdentifier for the type of task being performed
taskUUID
stringrequiredUUID v4UUID v4 identifier for tracking tasks and matching async responses. Must be unique per task.
outputType
stringdefault: URLVideo output type.
Allowed values1 value
outputFormat
stringdefault: MP4Specifies the file format of the generated output. The available values depend on the task type and the specific model's capabilities.
- `MP4`: Widely supported video container (H.264), recommended for general use.
- `WEBM`: Optimized for web delivery.
- `MOV`: QuickTime format, common in professional workflows (Apple ecosystem).
Allowed values3 values
outputQuality
integermin: 20max: 99default: 95Compression quality of the output. Higher values preserve quality but increase file size.
webhookURL
stringURISpecifies a webhook URL where JSON responses will be sent via HTTP POST when generation tasks complete. For batch requests with multiple results, each completed item triggers a separate webhook call as it becomes available.

deliveryMethod
stringdefault: asyncDetermines how the API delivers task results.
Allowed values1 value
- Returns an immediate acknowledgment with the task UUID. Poll for results using getResponse. Required for long-running tasks like video generation.

uploadEndpoint
stringURISpecifies a URL where the generated content will be automatically uploaded using the HTTP PUT method. The raw binary data of the media file is sent directly as the request body. For secure uploads to cloud storage, use presigned URLs that include temporary authentication credentials.
Common use cases:
- Cloud storage: Upload directly to S3 buckets, Google Cloud Storage, or Azure Blob Storage using presigned URLs.
- CDN integration: Upload to content delivery networks for immediate distribution.
// S3 presigned URL for secure upload https://your-bucket.s3.amazonaws.com/generated/content.mp4?X-Amz-Signature=abc123&X-Amz-Expires=3600 // Google Cloud Storage presigned URL https://storage.googleapis.com/your-bucket/content.jpg?X-Goog-Signature=xyz789 // Custom storage endpoint https://storage.example.com/uploads/generated-image.jpgThe content data will be sent as the request body to the specified URL when generation is complete.
safety

booleandefault: falseEnable or disable content safety checking.
safety»modemode
stringdefault: noneSafety checking mode for video generation.
Allowed values3 values
- Disables checking.
- Checks key frames.
- Checks all frames.
ttl
integermin: 60Time-to-live (TTL) in seconds for generated content. Only applies when
outputTypeisURL.
includeCost
booleandefault: falseInclude task cost in the response.
Inputs
Input resources for the task (images, audio, etc). These must be nested inside the inputs object.
inputs object.inputs»referenceImagesreferenceImages
array of stringsmin items: 1max items: 9List of reference images (UUID, URL, Data URI, or Base64).
inputs»frameImagesframeImages
array of strings or objectsmin items: 1max items: 2List of frame-specific image inputs. Each item can be either a plain image input (UUID, URL, Data URI, or Base64) or an object with an image and a target position in the video.
Format 1: string[]

Core Parameters
Primary parameters that define the task output.
numberResults
integermin: 1max: 4default: 1Number of results to generate. Each result uses a different seed, producing variations of the same parameters.
model
stringrequiredvalue: bytedance:seedance@2.0-miniIdentifier of the model to use for generation.
positivePrompt
stringrequiredmin: 2max: 10000Text prompt describing elements to include in the generated output.
Width of the generated media in pixels.
Height of the generated media in pixels.
resolution
stringdefault: 720pResolution preset for the output. When used with input media, automatically matches the aspect ratio from the input.
Allowed values2 values
duration
integermin: 4max: 15default: 5Length of the generated video in seconds. The total number of frames produced is determined by duration multiplied by the model's frame rate (fps).
Settings
Technical parameters to fine-tune the inference process. These must be nested inside the settings object.
settings object.settings»audioaudio
booleandefault: trueGenerate synchronized audio.
