kling-motion-control-v3Workflow: kling-motion-controlOverview
Alongside the unified model APIs, we expose compatibility APIs that take each vendor's original parameters exactly as the vendor defines them — nothing renamed, nothing reshaped on the way through.
That makes them the shortest path onto Picsart if you already work with the vendor directly: the request bodies you've already written keep working as they are. You keep their parameter names and defaults, and you get the vendor's full parameter set rather than the subset that is shared across every model.
The cost is that a request is written for one vendor — switching models later means rewriting it, and results come back in the vendor's own shape. When you'd rather write once and change models freely, use the unified API.
Make a request
Call the workflow with ai.apis.run() in TypeScript, or hit /workflows/{workflow}/execute directly — params is passed through untouched either way.
These endpoints are addressed by workflow name rather than model id: the one in this model's header, since one model runs as one workflow. Authentication is unchanged — your Picsart API key as a bearer token (see Authentication).
import { createClient, ApiRunMode } from '@picsart/ai-sdk';
const ai = createClient({
apiKey: process.env.PICSART_API_KEY,
apiUrl: 'https://api.picsart.com',
});
// Calls the 'kling-motion-control' workflow directly — params are sent as-is.
const { result, usage } = await ai.apis.run('kling-motion-control', {
prompt: "A serene mountain lake at golden hour, ultra detailed",
image_url: "https://cdn.example.com/input.jpg",
video_url: "https://cdn.example.com/input.mp4",
character_orientation: "image",
mode: "std"
}, {
mode: ApiRunMode.SYNC,
});
console.log(result); // workflow-specific output
console.log(usage?.credits); // credits chargedAsync (submit & poll)
This model can run longer than the sync limit (~20s). In TypeScript, ai.apis.run(…, { mode: ApiRunMode.ASYNC }) polls for you; over HTTP, submit and poll yourself.
import { createClient, ApiRunMode } from '@picsart/ai-sdk';
const ai = createClient({
apiKey: process.env.PICSART_API_KEY,
apiUrl: 'https://api.picsart.com',
});
// mode: ASYNC submits the job and polls under the hood — you just await.
const { result } = await ai.apis.run('kling-motion-control', {
prompt: "A serene mountain lake at golden hour, ultra detailed",
image_url: "https://cdn.example.com/input.jpg",
video_url: "https://cdn.example.com/input.mp4",
character_orientation: "image",
mode: "std"
}, {
mode: ApiRunMode.ASYNC,
});
console.log(result);Parameters
8 parameters, sent inside params. These are the vendor's own names, so they line up one-for-one with the vendor's documentation. Required ones must be supplied; the rest fall back to their defaults.
| Parameter | Type | Required | Default | Details |
|---|---|---|---|---|
model_nameModel name for motion control video generation | string | no | kling-v2-6 | kling-v2-6kling-v3 |
promptPrompt text for video generation (max 2500 characters) | string | no | — | — |
image_urlReference image URL. The generated video will be based on the characters, background, and elements in the reference image. Characters may be realistic or cartoon-style with natural human-like proportions (realistic preferred) and must not be occluded. The character area must exceed 5% of the image. Supported formats: .jpg / .jpeg / .png, max file size 10MB, dimensions 340–3850px, and aspect ratio between 1:2.5 and 2.5:1. Validation errors will be returned if requirements are not met. | string | yes | — | — |
video_urlReference video URL. The generated video will follow the same character actions as the reference. The video must contain a single realistic character (full or upper body, including head), with clear body movements and facial expressions, no complex actions, and no camera cuts or movement. Supported formats: .mp4 / .mov, max file size 100MB, side length 340–3850px, and duration 3–30s (up to 10s when using image-based orientation). Validation errors will be returned if requirements are not met. | string | yes | — | — |
character_orientationOrientation of the characters in the video | string | yes | — | imagevideo |
keep_original_soundEither keep the original sound or no | string | no | yes | yesno |
modeMode for video generation. Motion control supports std and pro only (4k not supported). | string | yes | — | stdpro |

Response
Over HTTP the output arrives inside a status envelope, at response.result. ai.apis.run() unwraps that envelope for you and resolves to { result, usage } instead. Either way the resultitself is the vendor's own shape.
