TokModel exposes three image endpoints that follow the OpenAI Images API shape: generate a new image from a text prompt, edit an existing image using a mask, or produce variations of an image. All three endpoints accept a model parameter so you can route requests to different image providers without changing your client code.
Authentication
Include your API key in every request:
Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY
Generate an image from a prompt
POST /v1/images/generations accepts a text prompt and returns one or more image URLs. Use the n parameter to request multiple images and size to control resolution.curl https://tokmodel.com/v1/images/generations \
-H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{
"model": "openai/dall-e-3",
"prompt": "A photorealistic white cat sitting on a wooden desk next to a laptop, soft morning light",
"n": 1,
"size": "1024x1024"
}'
Key parameters
| Parameter | Type | Description |
|---|
model | string | The image model to use, e.g. openai/dall-e-3. |
prompt | string | Text description of the image to generate. |
n | integer | Number of images to return (1–10, model-dependent). |
size | string | Image dimensions, e.g. 256x256, 512x512, 1024x1024. |
response_format | string | url (default) or b64_json. |
Example response
{
"created": 1716489600,
"data": [
{
"url": "https://cdn.tokmodel.com/images/generated/abc123.png",
"revised_prompt": "A highly detailed photorealistic white cat with bright green eyes sitting on a polished wooden desk beside a silver laptop, bathed in warm soft morning sunlight streaming through a nearby window."
}
]
}
The url field contains a temporary link to the generated image. Download and store it if you need it beyond the expiry window.Edit an image with a mask
POST /v1/images/edits replaces a region of an existing image based on a prompt. You supply the original image, a mask (a PNG where transparent pixels mark the area to replace), and a text description of what should fill that area.The request uses multipart/form-data because it includes binary file uploads.curl https://tokmodel.com/v1/images/edits \
-H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" \
-F "model=openai/dall-e-2" \
-F "image=@original.png" \
-F "mask=@mask.png" \
-F "prompt=A sunlit garden with blooming red roses" \
-F "n=1" \
-F "size=1024x1024"
Key parameters
| Parameter | Type | Description |
|---|
model | string | The image model to use, e.g. openai/dall-e-2. |
image | file | The source PNG image to edit (max 4 MB, must be square). |
mask | file | A PNG mask where transparent areas indicate what to replace. |
prompt | string | Description of what to generate in the masked area. |
n | integer | Number of edited images to return. |
size | string | Output dimensions. Must match the source image size. |
Example response
{
"created": 1716489700,
"data": [
{
"url": "https://cdn.tokmodel.com/images/edited/def456.png"
}
]
}
Both the source image and the mask must be square PNGs with an alpha channel. Use an image editor or a library like Pillow to ensure the mask is correctly formatted before uploading.
Create variations of an image
POST /v1/images/variations generates one or more new images that are stylistically similar to a source image but not identical. No prompt is required — the model derives context directly from the input image.The request uses multipart/form-data.curl https://tokmodel.com/v1/images/variations \
-H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" \
-F "model=openai/dall-e-2" \
-F "image=@source.png" \
-F "n=3" \
-F "size=512x512"
Key parameters
| Parameter | Type | Description |
|---|
model | string | The image model to use, e.g. openai/dall-e-2. |
image | file | The source PNG image to vary (max 4 MB, must be square). |
n | integer | Number of variations to return (1–10). |
size | string | Output dimensions: 256x256, 512x512, or 1024x1024. |
response_format | string | url (default) or b64_json. |
Example response
{
"created": 1716489800,
"data": [
{ "url": "https://cdn.tokmodel.com/images/variations/var1.png" },
{ "url": "https://cdn.tokmodel.com/images/variations/var2.png" },
{ "url": "https://cdn.tokmodel.com/images/variations/var3.png" }

}
Each entry in data is an independent variation. All share visual similarity with the source but differ in composition, lighting, or detail.
