Midjourney Video Automation If you're looking to automate images instead of videos, check out the Midjourney Image Automation actor. ## 🎥 What does Midjourney Video Automation do? Midjourney Video Automation empowers you to automate video generation on Midjourney using both text prompts and existing images—no manual intervention required. With this actor, you can: - 🤖 Bulk process multiple prompts or image inputs to create videos - 🎞️ Text-to-Video: generate a sequence of images from prompts and stitch them into a short video - 📸 Image-to-Video: convert your own images (via URLs or a Google Drive folder) into videos, optionally enhanced with prompts - ⚡ Extensions: add extra seconds to each video (4 s per extension) - 🔄 Concurrency: run multiple jobs in parallel - ⏳ Randomized wait times between operations to mimic human usage - 📁 Album HTML: auto-generate an album.html in Key-Value storage for easy browsing and downloading ## 🔑 Prerequisites Before using this actor, you need: 1.

Example: json [ { "album_url": "https://api.apify.com/v2/key-value-stores/XXX/records/album.html#<runId>", "prompt": "A futuristic city skyline at dusk --v 6.1", "url": "https://cdn.midjourney.com/video/<jobId>/0_1080_N.mp4", "preview_url": "https://cdn.midjourney.com/video/<jobId>/0.gif", "job_id": "<jobId>", "index": 0, "extensions": 1, "image_url": "https://drive.google.com/uc?id=<fileId>" } ] | Field | Description | | ------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------- | | album_url | Link to the generated album.html for browsing/downloading all videos. | | prompt | The text prompt used. | | url | Direct link to the generated video file (.mp4). | | preview_url | Thumbnail link for the video (.gif) | | job_id | Unique identifier for the generation job. | | index | Index of the generated video within the grid | | extensions | Number of 4-second extensions applied. | | image_url | Original image URL. | ## 🎞️ Accessing Generated Videos The actor saves an "album.html" file to the KeyValue store for easy browsing and downloading of generated videos. You can access it by: - Clicking any "Album URL" field in the results table - Going to Run > Storage > KeyValueStore and finding the "album.html" file The album interface provides several features: - Filter videos by prompt text or other metadata - Select multiple videos for batch operations - Open videos in new tabs for detailed viewing - Download selected videos as a ZIP file Here's an example album showcasing some generated videos so you can see how your results will be displayed: Browse Example Gallery ## ⚠️ Usage Guidelines & Best Practices ### Account Safety - Midjourney may flag excessive automation; use responsibly. - Only automate tasks you would normally perform manually. - Avoid continuous 24/7 runs. ### Performance Optimization - Start with low concurrency (1–2) and increase based on success rates. - Use proxies from your region for more reliable access. - Tune minWait/maxWait to balance speed and rate-limit safety. - Update your cookie periodically for long sessions. ### General Tips - Test with a small batch of prompts or images first. - Use clear, descriptive prompts for better video content. - Monitor and review failed jobs; they won't halt your run. ## 💳 Pricing & Credits Apify's Free plan includes \$5 in monthly credits—ideal for testing. For regular usage, we recommend the \$49/month Personal plan, which provides ample credits for ongoing Midjourney Video Automation.
