​
Overview

Use this endpoint to generate a video with a specific Vidu effect template through Crun’s unified task creation API. The input object is aligned with the official Vidu template request structure, while the outer wrapper follows the Crun unified task format: 
{
  "model": "vidu/template",
  "input": {
    "template": "Easter_cute_pets",
    "images": [
      "https://static.crunai.com/u/9b4262e8-4051-4ae8-abf8-e8d8955a948c.png"
    ],
    "bgm": true
  }
}
To integrate all available Vidu templates at once, first call the Vidu template list endpoint at /api/v1/client/job/vidu-templates, then dynamically render template metadata and submit the selected template to this generation endpoint.

​
Template Discovery

Before creating a task, developers can fetch the latest template catalog from the Crun Vidu template list endpoint:

Vidu Template List

Query all available Vidu effect templates, supported options, cover assets, and per-template instructions.
The list endpoint makes it easy to build a one-click integration flow for all templates:
  1. Query /api/v1/client/job/vidu-templates
  2. Display the returned template list in your app
  3. Use the selected template value and supported fields to call vidu/template

​
Query Task Status

After submitting a task, use the unified query endpoint to check progress and retrieve results:

Get Task Info

Learn how to query task status and retrieve generation results
For production use, we recommend using the callback_url parameter to receive automatic notifications when generation completes, rather than polling the status endpoint.

Vidu Template List

Query all available Vidu effect templates and support one-click template integration.
