Async API Reference

Async image edit contract

Async endpoint returns a response without waiting for an actual result. The actual result should be queried with another request. So you can request image editing and separately get the result after it's ready.

Request image processing

The request body for async endpoint is the same as for regular image edit operation. See Image edit contract for more info.

  • what image will be processed (input)
  • how it will be processed (operations)
  • where it will be stored (output)
