Kling: Kling 3.0 Omni Video API

Kling 3.0 Omni all-in-one video generation: text, image, first/last frame, reference image, reference video, elements and video editing in one endpoint, with 4K and multi-shot.

Frequently Asked Questions

3.0 Omni or Kling 3.0 image-to-video?

For first frame (plus optional last frame) with a prompt, use **Kling 3.0 image-to-video** — fewer parameters. Choose **3.0 Omni** when you need reference images, reference videos or base-video editing. Same visual generation; Omni costs more when a reference video is used.

Can I keep the result URLs long-term?

No. Kling clears generated image/video URLs after **30 days**. If object storage is enabled on this site, the gateway automatically re-hosts results on completion; otherwise download and archive them yourself.

How long does a task take and how do I get the result?

Video generation is asynchronous and usually takes from tens of seconds to a few minutes. Set `options.callback_url` to receive a push when the status changes, or poll the task query endpoint.

How is this different from the v-prefixed model (e.g. kling-v2-6)?

They are **two API generations of the same underlying model**. The v-prefixed one is Kling's legacy API (model passed as the `model_name` parameter); this one is the new API (model version in the request path) with a `contents / settings / options` body, fewer coupled parameters and batch task queries. Kling states the legacy API remains available, so both can coexist.
