Use this endpoint to extend an existing Kling video as a follow-up task.

Before you call it

  • Start from a finished Kling video result
  • Pass the video_id from the parent task result
  • Pass the parent task_id together with the video_id
  • Use a source video that is extension-compatible; unsupported source videos return HTTP 400 instead of creating an extension task
  • A completed 5 s Kling v1 or v1-6 text-to-video or image-to-video parent is a safer starting point for extension compatibility
  • Add prompt, negative_prompt, or cfg_scale only when you need to steer the continuation
  • Run the extension on the same account context as the parent task
  • Trigger the extension promptly before parent-task resources expire

Task flow

1

Finish the parent video task

Create the original Kling video and wait until its result is available.
2

Submit the extension request

Send the parent task_id, video_id, and optional prompt, then save the returned task id.
3

Poll the extension task

Continue with Get a Kling task until the extended video reaches a terminal state.
For the complete parameter reference, see the official Kling documentation.
