Body

application/json
​
model
enum<string>
default:gpt-image-2
required

Image generation model name, official channel, better stability and controllability, suitable for commercial scenarios

Available options:
gpt-image-2
Example:

"gpt-image-2"

​
prompt
string
required

Prompt describing the image to be generated, or describing how to edit the input image

Limits:

  • Up to 32000 characters (counted by Unicode code points, works for CJK and other languages)
Maximum string length: 32000
Example:

"A beautiful colorful sunset over the ocean"

​
image_urls
string<uri>[]

Reference image URL list for image-to-image and image editing functions

Note:

  • Number of input images per request: 1~16
  • Size of a single image: not exceeding 50MB
  • Supported file formats: .jpeg, .jpg, .png, .webp
  • Image URLs must be directly accessible by the server, or the image URL should directly download when accessed (typically these URLs end with image file extensions, such as .png, .jpg)
  • In image-to-image / image editing scenarios, the reference images themselves also incur additional image input token consumption
Example:
[
  "https://example.com/image1.png",
  "https://example.com/image2.png"
]
​
size
string
default:auto

Size of the generated image. Supports both ratio format and explicit pixel format, defaults to auto

① Ratio format (recommended, 15 options)

  • 1:1: Square
  • 1:2 / 2:1: Extreme portrait / landscape
  • 1:3 / 3:1: Ultra portrait / landscape (3:1 limit)
  • 2:3 / 3:2: Standard portrait / landscape
  • 3:4 / 4:3: Classic portrait / landscape
  • 4:5 / 5:4: Common social media
  • 9:16 / 16:9: Mobile / desktop widescreen
  • 9:21 / 21:9: Ultra-wide

② Explicit pixel format: WxH (or W×H), e.g. 1024x1024, 1536x1024, 3840×2160

  • Both width and height must be multiples of 16
  • Each edge range: [16, 3840]
  • Pixel budget: 655,360 ≤ width × height ≤ 8,294,400 (about 0.65 MP ~ 8.29 MP)
  • Aspect ratio: ≤ 3:1

③ auto: The model decides the size automatically (resolution does not apply in this mode)

Out-of-range handling:

  • If a ratio + resolution combination exceeds the pixel budget, dimensions are automatically scaled down proportionally (e.g. 4K 1:1 → 2880×2880)
Example:

"auto"

​
resolution
enum<string>
default:1K

Resolution tier shortcut, only effective when size is a ratio; ignored in explicit pixel mode

Anchor-edge rules (the other edge is auto-derived from the size ratio and aligned to multiples of 16):

  • 1K: Short edge locked at 1024
  • 2K: Long edge locked at 2048
  • 4K: Long edge locked at 3840

Landscape / square output dimensions (portrait dimensions are the landscape width/height swapped, e.g. 2:3 = 3:2 reversed):

Ratio1K2K4K
1:11024×10242048×20482880×2880 *

* Marks combinations that are auto-downscaled to fit the pixel budget. Values are case-insensitive.

Available options:
1K,
2K,
4K
Example:

"1K"

​
quality
enum<string>
default:medium

Rendering quality that controls the model's "reasoning depth", directly affecting output token count and cost. Defaults to medium

ValueTile baseRelative cost (1024²)
low16~0.11×
medium481.0×
high96~4.0×
Available options:
low,
medium,
high
Example:

"medium"

​
n
integer
default:1

Number of images to generate, each billed independently

Note:

  • Text input tokens scale linearly with n
Required range: 1 <= x <= 10
Example:

1

​
callback_url
string<uri>

HTTPS callback address after task completion

Callback Timing:

  • Triggered when task is completed, failed, or cancelled
  • Sent after billing confirmation is completed

Security Restrictions:

  • Only HTTPS protocol is supported
  • Callback to internal IP addresses is prohibited (127.0.0.1, 10.x.x.x, 172.16-31.x.x, 192.168.x.x, etc.)
  • URL length must not exceed 2048 characters

Callback Mechanism:

  • Timeout: 10 seconds
  • Maximum 3 retries on failure (retries after 1 second/2 seconds/4 seconds)
  • Callback response body format is consistent with the task query API response format
  • Callback address returning 2xx status code is considered successful, other status codes will trigger retry
Example:

"https://your-domain.com/webhooks/image-task-completed"
