Request Parameters

ParameterRequiredTypeDefaultAllowed values / rangeDescription
promptYesstringUp to 8,000 charactersText description of the image you want.
num_imagesNointeger114How many images to generate. Each one is billed, so 4 images cost four times the per-image rate.
resolutionNostring1k1k, 2kOutput resolution. Affects the price — see Pricing.
qualityNostringmediumlow, mediumRendering quality. Also affects the price, independently of resolution — the two combine into a four-cell rate table.
aspect_ratioNostring1:12:1, 20:9, 19.5:9, 16:9, 4:3, 3:2, 1:1, 2:3, 3:4, 9:16, 9:19.5, 9:20, 1:2Frame shape of the output. Does not affect the price. auto is not accepted here — it only applies when editing, where there is an input image to match.
output_formatNostringjpegjpeg, png, webpEncoding of the returned file. Does not affect the price.

Notes

quality and resolution are independent price axes — see Pricing for the four-cell table. num_images is capped at 4 and multiplies whichever cell you land in. aspect_ratio does not accept auto on this operation. The model's sync_mode option is not supported here: it returns images as inline data URIs, which this asynchronous API cannot store or serve, so a request setting it is rejected.

The model's sync_mode option is not supported here: it returns images as inline data URIs, which this asynchronous API cannot store or serve, so a request setting it is rejected.

Webhook (Optional)

Add the X-Webhook-URL header to your submit request to receive a POST callback when the job completes — no polling required.

Using curl? These are HTTP request headers — pass each with -H, e.g. -H "X-Webhook-URL: https://your-server.com/webhook/callback". Do not paste them as bare lines, and end every line of a multi-line command with \.

Webhook Headers

HeaderRequiredDefaultDescription
X-Webhook-URLYes (to enable)HTTPS endpoint on your server that will receive the POST callback. Must respond 2xx within a few seconds (process async if needed).
X-Webhook-ModeNoterminalterminal — fires once at the final status (COMPLETED/FAILED/ERROR). sync — fires on every poll cycle plus the terminal event, and caps the queue’s polling delay at 15s for tighter progress updates.

Example: enable webhook

Delivery semantics

  • terminal mode (default) — exactly one POST when the request reaches a terminal status. No callback during PROCESSING.
  • sync modePOST on every status poll (with delay capped at ~15s) plus a final POST at terminal status. Use when you want progress updates.
  • Idempotency — use request_id as your idempotency key. Network retries can deliver the same callback more than once; your handler must tolerate duplicates.
  • Response — respond 200 OK within a few seconds. The queue does not block on slow handlers, but persistent failures may stop further deliveries.
  • HTTPS required — plain http:// URLs are rejected.

Webhook (Optional)

Add the X-Webhook-URL header to your submit request to receive a POST callback when the job completes — no polling required.

Using curl? These are HTTP request headers — pass each with -H, e.g. -H "X-Webhook-URL: https://your-server.com/webhook/callback". Do not paste them as bare lines, and end every line of a multi-line command with \.

Webhook Headers

HeaderRequiredDefaultDescription
X-Webhook-URLYes (to enable)HTTPS endpoint on your server that will receive the POST callback. Must respond 2xx within a few seconds (process async if needed).
X-Webhook-ModeNoterminalterminal — fires once at the final status (COMPLETED/FAILED/ERROR). sync — fires on every poll cycle plus the terminal event, and caps the queue’s polling delay at 15s for tighter progress updates.

Example: enable webhook

X-Webhook-URL: https://your-server.com/webhook/callback
X-Webhook-Mode: terminal

Callback Payload

Your endpoint receives a POST application/json with the same shape as the GET /v2/requests/status/{request_id} response. Example terminal callback (mode terminal):

{
  "request_id": "grok-imagine-pro-edit-quality_019dxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx",
  "status": "COMPLETED",
  "model_id": "grok-imagine-pro-edit-quality",

  "updated_at": "2026-05-22 13:19:23",

⚠ Content policy. The Grok Imagine provider screens every prompt and reference image.

Keep prompts and reference images policy-compliant to avoid failures.
