https://api.segmind.com/v1/gpt-image-1-miniParameters
promptrequiredstringDescribe the image you want to generate. Try using descriptive keywords and context for creative imagery or straight-forward terms for clear visuals.
backgroundoptionalstringDecide if background should be see-through or solid. Transparent is best for overlays; opaque suits standalone images.
"opaque""transparent""opaque"moderationoptionalstringChoose moderation level for content. Use low for creative freedom, auto for balanced safety.
"auto""low""auto"output_compressionoptionalintegerSelect how compressed the output image is. A higher number preserves quality; lower numbers shrink file size.
100output_formatoptionalstringChoose the file type for saving. PNG is great for quality; jpeg for smaller files.
"png""png""jpeg""webp"qualityoptionalstringSet the image's visual quality. Use high for intricate details or medium for efficiency without much compromise.
"high""low""medium""high""auto"sizeoptionalstringChoose how big the image should be. Use square for fast results and larger sizes for detailed or wide visuals.

Returns: Text/JSON
Asynchronous requests (v2)
Use Async for video, long-running (>~60s), or high-concurrency workloads; Sync is simplest for fast image & LLM calls. Async submits a request and you poll it to completion.
- 1
POST /v2/gpt-image-1-miniSubmit — returns request_id, status_url, response_url
- 2
GET /v2/requests/{id}/statusPoll — until COMPLETED or FAILED
- 3
GET /v2/requests/{id}Result — final response body
Status states
- A FAILED request is served as HTTP 422 — the body still carries the error detail.
- An unknown or expired request_id returns HTTP 404.
- Results are retained for 1 hour, then expire.
- Content / RAI blocks surface as FAILED, not a separate state.
- Track completion by polling the status endpoint.
