POST /beta/ai/image-generations/{generationRequestId}/images/{index}/refine

AI Generator - Image Refining

Use a mask image and text prompts to modify content in a previously generated image. Use of this endpoint is restricted to clients with an AI Generation license product and may result in the deduction of a credit depending on the terms of your license.

The Image Refine Request

The ImageRefineRequest payload requires a valid mask_url and accepts the following optional parameters:

ParameterPurpose
promptThe primary text used for refined portion of the images.
negative_promptConcepts to exclude from the refined portion.
product_idIf you have multiple AI Generation Getty Images products, indicate which one you would like to use for this refine request. If you have multiple products, this property is required.
notesA note for the download. Some products require a note.
project_codeThe project code for the download. Some products require a project code.
mask_urlRequired. Specifies the location of the mask.

Uploading mask image

Before calling the refine endpoint, a mask in JPEG format must be uploaded to https://api.gettyimages.com/v3/search/by-image/uploads/{CLIENT_IMAGE.jpg}, where the client defines the {CLIENT_IMAGE.jpg} portion of the URL.

For example, using cURL:

curl -i -X PUT https://api.gettyimages.com/v3/search/by-image/uploads/my-test-image.jpg -H 'Content-Type: image/jpeg' -H 'Api-Key: API_KEY' --data-binary "@testimage.jpg"

Once the mask has been uploaded, use the full URL as the mask_url.

Fulfilled and Pending Results

In many cases the result of this call will be the final fulfilled result. In these cases, you will see a HTTP 200 OK result and a payload including URLs to the result images and a generation request id value.

However some generations may take more time than can be accommodated in the initial call. In these cases the result of this call is HTTP 202 Accepted and the payload will only contain a generation request id value. This value must be retained by the client for subsequent polling of the GET beta/ai/image-generations/{generationRequestId} Get Images Generation endpoint.

Lifetime of Generated Images

Generated images will be retained for 6 months after generation.
