Available options:

image/*,

application/json

stability-client-id

string

The name of your application, used to help us communicate app-specific debugging or moderation issues to you.

Maximum string length: 256

Example:

"my-awesome-app"

stability-client-user-id

Body

multipart/form-data

prompt

string

required

What you wish to see in the output image. A strong, descriptive prompt that clearly defines elements, colors, and subjects will lead to better results.

To control the weight of a given word use the format (word:weight), where word is the word you'd like to control the weight of and weight is a value between 0 and 1. For example: The sky was a crisp (blue:0.3) and (green:0.8) would convey a sky that was blue and green, but more green than blue.
