Try both Anthropic and OpenAI compatible formats.
```bash
# Using OpenAI-compatible format
curl -X POST "https://api.lowcodeapi.com/minimax/v1/chat/completions?api_token=YOUR_API_TOKEN" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{
"model": "MiniMax-M2.1",
"messages": [
{"role": "user", "content": "Explain quantum computing in simple terms."}
],
"max_tokens": 500,
"temperature": 0.7

{"role": "user", "content": "Explain quantum computing in simple terms."}
]
}'
```
### Example 2: Generate and Check Video Status
Create videos from text or images.
```bash
# Generate video from text prompt
# Returns task_id for status checking
curl -X POST "https://api.lowcodeapi.com/minimax/v1/video_generation?api_token=YOUR_API_TOKEN" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{
"model": "hailuo-02",
"prompt": "A peaceful forest with sunlight filtering through the trees",
"duration": 5,
"aspect_ratio": "16:9"
}'
# Check task status periodically
# Use task_id from previous response
curl -X GET "https://api.lowcodeapi.com/minimax/v1/video_generation/taskid?task_id=TASK_ID&api_token=YOUR_API_TOKEN"
# Convert image to video
curl -X POST "https://api.lowcodeapi.com/minimax/v1/video_generation?api_token=YOUR_API_TOKEN" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{
"model": "hailuo-2.3Fast",
"image_url": "https://example.com/landscape.jpg",
"duration": 4
}'
```
### Example 3: Text to Speech and Music Generation
Create audio content from text.
```bash
# Convert text to speech
curl -X POST "https://api.lowcodeapi.com/minimax/v1/t2a_v2?api_token=YOUR_API_TOKEN" \

## Rate Limits & Best Practices
- Video generation is async - poll task status until complete
- Use appropriate aspect ratios for your use case (16:9 for video, 9:16 for mobile)
- Lyrics should follow structure tags for better music generation
- Stream responses can improve perceived performance for long generations
## Error Handling
Standard HTTP status codes apply. For video generation, check task status to see if generation succeeded or failed.
