Flare and Sunburst, fixed-price 1K / 2K / 4K images, reference editing and 1K text-to-GIF. Model IDs: gpt-image-2.6-flare-rev / gpt-image-2.6-sunburst-rev.

Quick start

curl -X POST https://api.qingbo.ai/v1/tasks \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $WAVE_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "Idempotency-Key: image26-rev-demo-001" \
  -d '{
  "model": "gpt-image-2.6-flare-rev",
  "action": "generate",
  "prompt": "A sculptural glass vase on ivory stone, soft side light, refined editorial photography",
  "resolution": "2k",
  "aspect_ratio": "4:5",
  "quality": "medium",
  "complexity": "high",
  "n": 1
}'

Read task_id after submission and poll GET /v1/tasks/{task_id}. Download files from result.images[].url[] on success. Continue polling the original task after a timeout; do not submit a duplicate.

Parameters

Parameter	Values and rules
`action`	generate for text generation; edit requires image_urls.
`prompt`	Required description or edit instruction.
`image_urls`	1–16 publicly accessible reference images for editing. At 2K/4K use PNG/JPEG/WebP, not GIF/BMP.
`resolution`	1k / 2k / 4k; defaults to 1k. GIF is limited to 1k.
`aspect_ratio`	auto / 1:1 / 16:9 / 9:16 / 4:3 / 3:4 / 3:2 / 2:3 / 5:4 / 4:5 / 21:9. GIF requires explicit auto.
`quality`	low / medium / high / xhigh / max / auto; defaults to low.
`complexity`	low / medium / high, defaults to high. Planning effort is independent of quality and has no separate fee.
`n`	Must be 1.
`output_format`	png / jpeg / webp / gif; defaults to png. GIF requires 1k generate without references.

Reference editing

{
  "model": "gpt-image-2.6-sunburst-rev",
  "action": "edit",
  "prompt": "Preserve the subject and composition. Change the lighting to warm late-afternoon sunlight.",
  "image_urls": [
    "https://cdn.example.com/source.png"
  ],
  "resolution": "1k",
  "quality": "low",
  "complexity": "low",
  "n": 1
}

GIF

{
  "model": "gpt-image-2.6-flare-rev",
  "action": "generate",
  "prompt": "A paper lantern sways gently in a breeze, seamless loop, fixed camera",
  "resolution": "1k",
  "aspect_ratio": "auto",
  "output_format": "gif",
  "quality": "medium",
  "n": 1
}

Billing

Both variants use the same fixed per-image prices:

Resolution	USD / image
1K	$0.0095625; approximately $0.009564 after billing-unit rounding
2K	$0.03375
4K	$0.045

Quality, planning effort and references have no separate surcharge. The reservation and successful settlement use the same fixed price. Existing tasks retain their frozen tariff after a price update. Check final billing_status and refund records for failed tasks.

Resolution and actual pixels

4k names the supplier’s resolution tier, rather than a promise of a 4096-pixel edge for every aspect ratio:

Aspect ratio	1K	2K	4K
1:1	1024×1024	2048×2048	2880×2880
16:9	1536×864	2048×1152	3840×2160
9:16	864×1536	1152×2048	2160×3840

For text generation, auto uses 1:1. For editing, auto matches the closest reference aspect ratio; it does not preserve exact input dimensions. At 2K/4K use PNG/JPEG/WebP references, not GIF/BMP.

Examples

These images were generated by their named Economy variants using resolution: "4k" and aspect_ratio: "1:1". Both original files are 2880×2880. GPT Image 2.6 Flare Economy 4K example

Limits

SVG is unavailable: real test requests returned PNG. It will be exposed after the supplier delivers and passes acceptance. GIF frame counts and pixel sizes are not exposed. Multiple output images, masks and annotation layers are unavailable. Ineffective upstream controls such as background, moderation and output_compression are not exposed. model pins Flare/Sunburst; do not send version.
