Generates images with transparent background synchronously based on a given prompt and optional parameters using
the Ideogram 3.0 model. Images will be generated using maximum supported resolution at the specified aspect ratio
to allow best results with upscaler. The selected resolution is written to the response, not the upscaled final
resolution.
`rendering_speed=FLASH` is not supported for transparent-background generation; the request will return a 400.
Use `TURBO`, `DEFAULT`, or `QUALITY` instead.
Images links are available for a limited period of time; if you would like to keep the image, you must download it.
Authentication
Api-Keystring
API key for access control. Use in the header with the name “Api-Key”
Request
A request to generate an image with transparent background using Ideogram 3.0, with optional upscaling.
promptstringRequired
The prompt to use to generate the image.
seedintegerOptional0-2147483647
Random seed. Set for reproducible generation.
upscale_factorenumOptionalDefaults to X1
Upscale the initially generated image by the given factor. Upscale factors other than X1 will incur additional cost.
Allowed values:
aspect_ratioenumOptional
The aspect ratio to use for image generation, which determines the image's resolution. Cannot be used in conjunction with resolution. Defaults to 1x1.
rendering_speedenumOptionalDefaults to DEFAULT
The rendering speed to use. FLASH is not supported for transparent-background generation; requests with rendering_speed=FLASH will return a 400.
Allowed values:
magic_promptenumOptional
Determine if MagicPrompt should be used in generating the request or not.
Allowed values:
negative_promptstringOptional
Description of what to exclude from an image. Descriptions in the prompt take precedence
to descriptions in the negative prompt.
num_imagesintegerOptional1-8Defaults to 1
Number of images to generate.
Response
Image(s) generated successfully.
createddatetime
The time the request was created.
datalist of objects
A list of ImageObjects that contain the generated image(s).
