Parameters 6
| Name | Type | Default | Allowed | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| imagesrequired | string[] | — | up to 10 image urls | 1 to 10 images to edit, restyle or combine. Refer to them in the prompt as Image 1, Image 2 or <ref_image_0>, <ref_image_1>. URL or base64. |
| promptrequired | string | Recolour only the motorcycle's fuel tank from cherry red to brushed copper. Keep the chrome, the tyres, the pegboard of hand tools, the brick wall and the lighting exactly unchanged. | — | What to change and what must stay the same. Supports bounding boxes: tag elements with <id> and append a JSON array of {id, bbox:[y_min,x_min,y_max,x_max] on a 0-1000 grid, desc}. |
| resolution | enum | 1k | 768sq · 1k · 1.5k · 2k · 4k | Output size tier (equal pixel area; exact dimensions follow the aspect ratio). Price scales with the tier. |
| aspect_ratio | enum | auto | auto · 21:9 · 2:1 · 16:9 · 3:2 · 7:5 · 4:3 · 5:4 · 1:1 · 4:5 · 3:4 · 5:7 · 2:3 · 9:16 · 1:2 · 9:21 | auto keeps the first reference image's framing unless the prompt asks for a ratio. |
| safety_tolerance | integer | 2 | 0–4 | Input and output moderation level: 0 is strictest, 4 most permissive. |
| grounding | boolean | true | — | Let the model ground the prompt in web and image search (real places, products, people in the news). Off for pure imagination. |
File inputs (images: up to 10 image urls) take URLs. Upload the raw file to POST /v1/uploads with its own Content-Type and pass the url it returns. Inputs are kept 90 days.
