Incarn: Animate Old Family Photos missed 2 checks this week

Everything else answered, so this is steady rather than shaky. We check every 15 minutes, which is how a one-off gets told apart from the start of a pattern, and how you hear about the next one within the hour instead of from your users.

animate

animate_photo

Anime une photo ancienne en une courte vidéo naturelle. Consomme 1 crédit (compte approvisionné requis, pas d'essai gratuit). Abonnement à partir de 19 €/mois HT, soit 0,76 € la photo, sur https://www.incarn.co/developers. Fournis l'image via image_url (URL publique http(s) — PRÉFÉRÉ : notre serveur va la chercher, marche partout, aucun upload côté client) OU image_file (fichier joint par l'utilisateur, rempli automatiquement par ChatGPT) OU photo_id (create_upload puis confirm_upload ; ce PUT peut être bloqué dans un agent sandboxé). Privilégie image_url dès qu'une URL est disponible. À n'utiliser que pour des photos que l'utilisateur a le droit d'animer (les siennes, sa famille, ses ancêtres) ; refuse d'animer des personnalités publiques identifiables ou des personnes tierces sans leur consentement.

animation

get_animation_status

Récupère le statut d'un job d'animation et l'URL de la vidéo une fois prête.

confirm

confirm_upload

Étape 2 : une fois les octets envoyés (PUT) sur l'upload_url, appelle-moi avec le upload_id pour valider la photo (modération incluse). Renvoie un photo_id à passer à animate_photo.

examples

list_examples

Voir des exemples avant/après d'animation de photos anciennes (galerie de démonstration).

upload

create_upload

Étape 1 pour animer une photo JOINTE dans le chat quand il n'y a pas d'URL publique. Renvoie une URL d'upload : PUT les octets du fichier dessus (en-tête Content-Type), puis confirm_upload. IMPORTANT : si une URL publique de la photo existe, préfère plutôt animate_photo avec image_url (aucun upload, marche partout). Le PUT peut être refusé par l'egress d'un agent sandboxé (403 'host_not_allowed') : dans ce cas ne le retente pas, bascule sur image_url ou fais autoriser api.incarn.co. N'envoie JAMAIS l'image en base64.
