Audio

Produce a piece of music from a text description, such as "epic orchestral battle theme" or "calm piano melody", with optional lyrics. Synchronous until September 10, 2026: the call blocks until generation finishes and returns a single audio result containing a URL; there is no separate polling step. The description field is required; duration must be one of the allowed values (0 means auto, otherwise multiples of 10 up to 180 seconds) and out-of-range values return HTTP 400. Credits are charged on success. Use this for songs and musical scores; use createSoundEffect for short sound effects, createAmbiance for looping background soundscapes, and createAudioTransform to remix an existing audio sample. Pass an optional request_id to tag the result so you can locate it later via `GET /assets/audio/results`. Requires an API key (user scope). Async is the intended integration pattern: pass `async: true` and the call returns 202 with a job id - poll `GET /assets/jobs/{id}` (`getApiJob` in MCP), honouring poll_after_ms or long-polling with wait=30, until status is succeeded, whose result field is exactly the response documented for this operation. Synchronous responses are deprecated: they remain the default until September 10, 2026, after which requests default to async and return 202 with a job id; set `async: false` explicitly to keep synchronous behavior during and after the transition. Synchronous calls run on the same queue: the response carries an X-Ludo-Job-Id header, and a job still running after 15 minutes comes back as 202 with the job instead of an error. Each account may have up to 50 generations queued or running at once via the API; a request beyond that returns 429 (code PENDING_JOBS_LIMIT).

post/audio/music

Request body

descriptionstring required

Text description of the music to generate (e.g., "epic orchestral battle theme", "calm piano melody").

lyricsstring

Optional lyrics to include in the generated music.

duration0 | 10 | 20 | 30 | 40 | 50 | 60 | 70 | 80 | 90 | 100 | 110 | 120 | 130 | 140 | 150 | 160 | 170 | 180

Duration in seconds. Use 0 for automatic duration based on the description.

augment_promptboolean

Augment the prompt behind the scenes. Disable to have more control.

request_idstring

Optional client-provided identifier, unique per request. Re-sending the same request_id returns the existing job instead of generating again. Also usable with the results endpoint.

asyncboolean

When true, return 202 immediately with a job id instead of waiting for the result. Poll GET /assets/jobs/{id}. Defaults to false (synchronous).

Response

Success

urlstring

URL to the generated audio file
