## Endpoint

```http
POST https://api.roasos.com/v1/music/elevenlabs-music
```

Send your API key as a bearer token. The key needs the scope `api:write`. Every paid request also needs an `Idempotency-Key` header.

The envelope fields `quote_only`, `quote_id`, `webhook_url` and `wait_timeout_seconds` behave the same on each model endpoint. Refer to [Jobs](/concepts/jobs) and [Quotes and credits](/concepts/quotes-and-credits).

## Good at

Make a music bed that ends with the ad. Set `duration_seconds` to the length of the cut (3 to 600 seconds, whole seconds) and the track runs to that length. A 15-second ad gets a 15-second bed.

`instrumental` is true by default, so the track has no vocals. Set it to false when the prompt asks for a voice.

The price is $0.60 per started minute of output. The length is always sent, so a request for 15, 30 or 60 seconds costs one minute, and a request for 61 to 120 seconds costs two. When you do not send `duration_seconds`, roasOS sends 120 seconds and charges two minutes. It never lets the model pick a length with no limit. The output reports no duration, so the quote is exact and nothing reconciles.

roasOS states no rights position on the music this model generates. Read the terms of the model and of fal before you publish a track.

## Pricing

The unit is one **minute**. Pricing key: `elevenlabs-music`.

| Request | Credits |
| ------- | ------- |
| `15s`   | 8       |
| `30s`   | 8       |
| `60s`   | 8       |
| `90s`   | 15      |
| `120s`  | 15      |

The credits come from the roasOS pricing table. No other field changes the price. To get the exact price of your request, send it with `quote_only: true` first.

## Modes

* `text-to-music`

Provider endpoints: `elevenlabs/music/v2.5`.

## Request fields

| Field                  | Type    | Required | Default | Rule                              |
| ---------------------- | ------- | -------- | ------- | --------------------------------- |
| `duration_seconds`     | integer | no       | `120`   | 3–600                             |
| `instrumental`         | boolean | no       | `true`  | —                                 |
| `prompt`               | string  | yes      | —       | ≥ 1 character; ≤ 4,100 characters |
| `quote_id`             | string  | no       | —       | UUID                              |
| `quote_only`           | boolean | no       | `false` | —                                 |
| `wait_timeout_seconds` | integer | no       | `0`     | 0–60                              |
| `webhook_url`          | string  | no       | —       | https URL; ≤ 4,096 characters     |

The schema is strict. A field that is not in this table gets `400 unsupported_option`. The field names are the roasOS role names. One role has one name in every family.

## Media

This endpoint accepts no media.

Every other role is refused: `avatar_id`, `elements`, `product_id`, `product_images`, `references`, `reference_images`, `image_url`, `end_image_url`, `scene_id`, `scene_image`, `video_urls`, `video_url`, `audio_urls`, `audio_url`, `voice_id`. A refused role gets `400 unsupported_option`.

<Callout>
  Each media URL must be an immutable object on 

  `https://cdn.roasos.com`

   that your workspace owns. Any other URL gets 

  `400 reference_media_not_workspace_owned`

  . Refer to 

  [Reference media and uploads](/concepts/reference-media)

   to learn how to put a file there.
</Callout>

## Prompt

Write a short brief: the genre, the mood, the tempo in BPM, the lead instruments and the energy arc. Say what the track is for ("a background bed for a product ad, with room for a voice"), so the mix stays under the speech.

Do not write the length in the prompt. `duration_seconds` sets it.

Example: "Warm modern lo-fi bed for a skincare ad, 85 BPM, soft keys, light vinyl texture and a brushed kick; a steady groove that leaves room for a voice, a gentle build and a clean ending."

## Not exposed

These catalog entries describe omitted inputs, pinned values and source constraints. They do not imply that the provider accepts every listed field.

* `composition_plan` — not accepted by this public endpoint.
* `seed` — not accepted by this public endpoint.
* `output_format` — not accepted by this public endpoint.

## Result

The result kind is `audio`. Always present: `url`. Present when the run makes it: `timestamps`.

```json
{
  "data": {
    "id": "gen_…",
    "kind": "audio",
    "model": "elevenlabs-music",
    "status": "completed",
    "result": {
      "timestamps": [
        {}
      ],
      "url": "https://cdn.roasos.com/workspaces/ws_01/result"
    }
  }
}
```

The files are immutable objects on `https://cdn.roasos.com`. A result URL is a valid media input for your next request.

## Example

The three steps are always the same: quote, run, poll.
