Input

Input fields for openai/gpt-image-2.6/flare/text-to-image
Name	Type	Description
`prompt`required	string	The prompt for image generation
`image_size`	string (enum)	The size of the generated image. Supports preset names, explicit {width, height}, or 'auto' to let the model pick the best size. Concrete sizes must have both dimensions as multiples of 16, max edge 3840px, aspect ratio <= 3:1, total pixels between 655,360 and 8,294,400. Default: `landscape_4_3` One of: `square_hd`, `square`, `portrait_4_3`, `portrait_16_9`, `landscape_4_3`, `landscape_16_9`, `auto`
`background`	string (enum)	Background for the generated image Default: `auto` One of: `auto`, `transparent`, `opaque`
`quality`	string (enum)	Rendering quality for the generated image. For SVG output it controls the reference image used to create the vector. Default: `high` One of: `auto`, `low`, `medium`, `high`, `xhigh`, `max`
`reasoning_effort`	string (enum)	How much the model plans before rendering, independently of quality (OpenAI `complexity`). Higher levels can help with dense text and complex layouts but add latency. Default: `high` One of: `low`, `medium`, `high`
`num_images`	integer	Number of images to generate. Must be 1 for SVG output. For GIF output, all frames of all outputs share the request's pixel budget. Default: `1`
`output_format`	string (enum)	Output format for the images. 'gif' returns an animation and 'svg' a vector image. Default: `png` One of: `jpeg`, `png`, `webp`, `gif`
`output_compression`	integer	Compression level from 0 to 100. Only supported when output_format is 'jpeg' or 'webp'.
`frame_count`	integer	GIF only: number of frames. image_size applies to each frame; reduce size or count if the request exceeds the pixel budget. Default: `9`
`frame_duration_ms`	integer	GIF only: milliseconds per frame, rounded to 10 ms. Default: `200`
`svg_model`	string (enum)	SVG only: the model that converts the generated reference image into vector paths. Larger models produce more accurate shapes. Default: `gpt-6-astra` One of: `gpt-6-astra`, `gpt-5.5`, `gpt-5.4`, `gpt-5.6-terra`, `gpt-6-luna`
`sync_mode`	boolean	If `True`, the media will be returned as a data URI and the output data won't be available in the request history. Default: `false`
