SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Creating short videos from text descriptions or still images normally requires video editing skills or expensive tools. This Skill lets an AI agent call the Pika 2.2 API through the Pixazo gateway to produce video clips, animations, and multi-image reference scenes directly from a conversation. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Text-to-Video: Generate a video clip from a natural-language prompt describing the scene, style, and camera motion. - Image-to-Video: Animate a still image into a moving video clip. - Pika Scenes (Reference-to-Video): Combine multiple reference images into a single generated video. - Use Case: A marketer asks the agent to "create a 5-second clip of a product rotating on a podium with studio lighting" — the agent submits the request, polls until the video is ready, and returns the result URL. ## Quick Start Ask the agent to generate a video with Pika from a text prompt, providing your Pixazo API key when prompted so it can submit the request and return the finished video URL.

Frequently Asked Questions about pika

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I generate a video from a text prompt with Pika?▼

Submit a POST request to the pika-2-2-text-to-video endpoint with your prompt and Pixazo API key, then poll the status endpoint with the returned task_id until the video URL is ready.

How do I animate a still image into a video?▼

Use the Pika 2.2 image-to-video operation (pika-2-2-image-to-video) by sending the source image along with your prompt. The API processes it asynchronously and returns a video URL after polling.

What is Pika Scenes and when should I use it?▼

Pika Scenes (pika-scenes-2-2) is the reference-to-video operation that accepts multiple reference images to guide the generated video. Use it when you need consistent characters, objects, or styles drawn from several input images.

Why is my Pika video request returning a 401 or 402 error?▼

A 401 means the Pixazo API key is missing or invalid, so generate a fresh key at the Pixazo API console. A 402 means the account is out of credits and needs a top-up on the Pixazo dashboard.

How long does Pika video generation take?▼

Video generation is asynchronous; the skill polls the status endpoint every 5-10 seconds with a total cap of about 10 minutes. The exact polling endpoint and completion status string are documented in the model's full reference page.
