Seedance 2.0 Mini

ByteDance
by ByteDance

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: videoInference

Identifier for the type of task being performed

taskUUID

stringrequiredUUID v4

UUID v4 identifier for tracking tasks and matching async responses. Must be unique per task.

outputType

stringdefault: URL

Video output type.

Allowed values1 value

outputFormat

stringdefault: MP4

Specifies 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: 95

Compression quality of the output. Higher values preserve quality but increase file size.

webhookURL

stringURI

Specifies 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: async

Determines 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

stringURI

Specifies 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.jpg

The content data will be sent as the request body to the specified URL when generation is complete.
