Fal Video
Generate AI videos using Fal.ai Seedance models. Use when you need to: (1) animate images into short videos, (2) create motion from still photos, or (3) generate high-quality video content from images.
Input
Provide input as JSON:
json{ "input_image": "<file-id>", "motion_prompt": "Describe the motion or animation you want (e.g., 'camera slowly zooms in', 'character waves hand', 'leaves gently swaying in wind')", "video_duration": "Desired video duration in seconds (typically 3-10 seconds)" }
Note on File Input:
input_imagerequires a file ID (format:df-xxxxx)- How to get file ID:
- Upload your image file to Refly using
refly file upload <file-path> - Copy the returned file ID from the upload response
- Use this file ID in the input JSON
- Upload your image file to Refly using
Execution (Pattern A: File Generation)
Step 0: Upload Image File
bash# Upload your image IMAGE_RESULT=$(refly file upload /path/to/your/image.jpg) IMAGE_FILE_ID=$(echo "$IMAGE_RESULT" | jq -r '.payload.fileId') echo "Image file ID: $IMAGE_FILE_ID"
Step 1: Run the Skill and Get Run ID
bash# Use the IMAGE_FILE_ID from Step 0 RESULT=$(refly skill run --id skpi-aeg736kbicr5zzzwgiyn7me3 --input '{ "input_image": "'"$IMAGE_FILE_ID"'", "motion_prompt": "gentle camera zoom in", "video_duration": "5" }') RUN_ID=$(echo "$RESULT" | jq -r '.payload.workflowExecutions[0].id')
Step 2: Open Workflow in Browser and Wait for Completion
bashopen "https://refly.ai/workflow/c-ly9fy5c2gz4hrf1g2izv5bdj" refly workflow status "$RUN_ID" --watch --interval 30000
Step 3: Download and Show Result
bash# Get files from this run FILES=$(refly workflow toolcalls "$RUN_ID" --files --latest | jq -r '.payload.files[]') # Download and open each file echo "$FILES" | jq -c '.' | while read -r file; do FILE_ID=$(echo "$file" | jq -r '.fileId') FILE_NAME=$(echo "$file" | jq -r '.name') if [ -n "$FILE_ID" ] && [ "$FILE_ID" != "null" ]; then refly file download "$FILE_ID" -o "$HOME/Desktop/${FILE_NAME}" open "$HOME/Desktop/${FILE_NAME}" fi done
Expected Output
- Type: Video
- Format: .mp4 video file
- Location:
~/Desktop/ - Action: Opens automatically to show user
Rules
