Instead of polling, you can receive a Webhook callback when the request reaches a terminal state. 3D generation regularly runs for several minutes, so a Webhook is usually the better fit here.

}Request Parameters
| Parameter | Required | Type | Default | Allowed values / range | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
image_url | Yes | string | — | Image URL or base64 data URI | Source image for the 3D model. Accepts .jpg, .jpeg and .png; AVIF and HEIF are converted automatically. |
model_type | No | string | standard | standard, lowpoly | Mesh style. lowpoly produces cleaner, lower-polygon geometry — and when set, Meshy ignores topology, target_polycount and should_remesh. |
topology | No | string | triangle | quad, triangle | Mesh topology. quad suits smooth surfaces, triangle detailed geometry. Ignored when should_remesh is false. |
target_polycount | No | integer | 30000 | 100–300000 | Target polygon count of the generated mesh. Ignored when should_remesh is false. |
symmetry_mode | No | string | auto | off, auto, on | Symmetry behaviour. off disables it, auto decides per object, on enforces it. |
should_remesh | No | boolean | true | true, false | Run the remesh phase. When false the raw triangular mesh is returned and both topology and target_polycount are ignored. |
should_texture | No | boolean | true | true, false | Generate textures. Affects the price — see Pricing. Setting false returns an untextured mesh and costs less. |
enable_pbr | No | boolean | false | true, false | Also generate PBR maps (metallic, roughness, normal) alongside base colour. Requires should_texture. Does not affect the price. |
pose_mode | No | string | "" | a-pose, t-pose, "" | Force the generated character into an A-pose or T-pose. Empty string applies no specific pose. |
is_a_t_pose | No | boolean | false | true, false | Deprecated — use pose_mode instead. Treats the input as already in T-pose. |
texture_prompt | No | string | — | Up to 600 characters | Text prompt steering the texturing pass. Requires should_texture. Longer values are rejected with 400. |
texture_image_url | No | string | — | Image URL | 2D image steering the texturing pass. Requires should_texture. |
enable_rigging | No | boolean | false | true, false | Auto-rig the result as a humanoid character, including basic walk and run animations. Best on humanoid subjects. Adds $0.20 — see Pricing. |
rigging_height_meters | No | number | 1.7 | 0.1–10 metres | Approximate character height. Only read when enable_rigging is true. |
enable_animation | No | boolean | false | true, false | Apply an animation preset. Requires enable_rigging — set on its own it has no effect and is not billed. Adds $0.12. |
animation_action_id | No | integer | 92 | 0–696 | Meshy animation preset (0 is Idle). Only read when enable_animation is true; a value outside the range is rejected with 422. |
enable_safety_checker | No | boolean | true | true, false | Safety-check the input images before processing. |
ultra_mode | No | boolean | false | true, false | Higher-fidelity geometry with finer surface detail. Affects the price — see Pricing. |
Notes
should_texture and ultra_mode are the two price axes on this operation; enable_rigging and enable_animation add fixed amounts on top. enable_animation requires enable_rigging — sent alone it is ignored and not billed. Setting model_type to lowpoly silently overrides topology, target_polycount and should_remesh.

Meshy also produces OBJ, FBX and USDZ variants, a preview thumbnail and separate texture files. This API returns the GLB only — it is the single self-contained file that carries mesh, materials and textures together, and it is what the console preview renders.
Status Values & Flow
QUEUED → PROCESSING → COMPLETED (success) or ERROR (failure).
Pricing
Billed per generation. The base rate depends on the options below; add-ons are then added on top.
| Options | Result | Price |
|---|---|---|
should_texture: false | Untextured mesh | $0.80 |
| default | Textured model | $1.20 |
ultra_mode: true | Ultra-quality textured model | $1.40 |
Add-ons, charged on top of the base rate: enable_rigging +$0.20, enable_animation +$0.12. Animation requires rigging, so the two together add $0.32.
Failed requests are not billed.
Meshy 7 API Pricing

}Request Parameters
| Parameter | Required | Type | Default | Allowed values / range | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
image_urls | Yes | array of string | — | 1–4 image URLs | Between one and four images of the same object from different angles. Accepts .jpg, .jpeg and .png; AVIF and HEIF are converted automatically. Sending more than four is rejected with 400, not silently truncated. |
topology | No | string | triangle | quad, triangle | Mesh topology. quad suits smooth surfaces, triangle detailed geometry. Ignored when should_remesh is false. |
target_polycount | No | integer | 30000 | 100–300000 | Target polygon count of the generated mesh. Ignored when should_remesh is false. |
symmetry_mode | No | string | auto | off, auto, on | Symmetry behaviour. off disables it, auto decides per object, on enforces it. |
should_remesh | No | boolean | true | true, false | Run the remesh phase. When false the raw triangular mesh is returned and both topology and target_polycount are ignored. |
should_texture | No | boolean | true | true, false | Generate textures. Affects the price — see Pricing. On this operation an untextured model is billed at the same rate as a textured one. |
enable_pbr | No | boolean | false | true, false | Also generate PBR maps (metallic, roughness, normal) alongside base colour. Requires should_texture. Does not affect the price. |
pose_mode | No | string | "" | a-pose, t-pose, "" | Force the generated character into an A-pose or T-pose. Empty string applies no specific pose. |
is_a_t_pose | No | boolean | false | true, false | Deprecated — use pose_mode instead. Treats the input as already in T-pose. |
texture_prompt | No | string | — | Up to 600 characters | Text prompt steering the texturing pass. Requires should_texture. Longer values are rejected with 400. |
texture_image_url | No | string | — | Image URL | 2D image steering the texturing pass. Requires should_texture. |
enable_rigging | No | boolean | false | true, false | Auto-rig the result as a humanoid character, including basic walk and run animations. Best on humanoid subjects. Adds $0.20 — see Pricing. |
rigging_height_meters | No | number | 1.7 | 0.1–10 metres | Approximate character height. Only read when enable_rigging is true. |
enable_animation | No | boolean | false | true, false | Apply an animation preset. Requires enable_rigging — set on its own it has no effect and is not billed. Adds $0.12. |
animation_action_id | No | integer | 92 | 0–696 | Meshy animation preset (0 is Idle). Only read when enable_animation is true; a value outside the range is rejected with 422. |
enable_safety_checker | No | boolean | true | true, false | Safety-check the input images before processing. |
ultra_mode | No | boolean | false | true, false | Higher-fidelity geometry with finer surface detail. Affects the price — see Pricing. Charged only when you send it explicitly; omit it and the standard rate applies. |
Notes
model_type is not available on this operation — it exists only on the single-image /image-to-3d endpoint, and sending it here has no effect and does not change the price. enable_animation requires enable_rigging; sent alone it is ignored and not billed. All input images must show the same object, or the reconstruction degrades badly.

Meshy also produces OBJ, FBX and USDZ variants, a preview thumbnail and separate texture files. This API returns the GLB only — it is the single self-contained file that carries mesh, materials and textures together, and it is what the console preview renders.
Status Values & Flow
QUEUED → PROCESSING → COMPLETED (success) or ERROR (failure).
Pricing
Billed per generation. The base rate depends on the options below; add-ons are then added on top.
| Options | Result | Price |
|---|---|---|
| default | Textured model | $1.20 |
should_texture: false | Untextured mesh — billed at the textured rate | $1.20 |
ultra_mode: true | Ultra-quality textured model | $1.40 |
Add-ons, charged on top of the base rate: enable_rigging +$0.20, enable_animation +$0.12. Animation requires rigging, so the two together add $0.32.
Failed requests are not billed.
Meshy 7 API Pricing
Base rate depends on ultra mode; auto-rigging adds $0.20 and animation adds $0.12.
| Option | Price (USD) |
|---|---|
| Textured (default) | $1.20 |
| Ultra mode | $1.40 |
| Auto-rigging add-on (additional) | $0.20 |
| Animation add-on (additional) | $0.12 |

Request Parameters - Meshy 6 (Text to 3D) generate request
| Parameter | Required | Type | Default | Allowed values / range | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| prompt | Yes | string | — | Max 600 characters | Description of the 3D object. Maximum 600 characters. |
| mode | No | enum | "full" | preview, full | Generation mode. "preview" returns untextured geometry only; "full" runs preview + refine and returns a fully textured model (required for the texture, PBR and rigging options). |
| seed | No | integer | — | — | Random seed that controls the generation's randomness. Reuse the same seed with identical settings to reproduce the same result; leave it empty for a different output each time. |
| model_type | No | enum | "standard" | standard, lowpoly | Type of 3D mesh generation. "standard" produces a regular high-detail mesh; "lowpoly" produces a low-poly mesh optimized for cleaner geometry with fewer polygons. |
| topology | No | enum | "triangle" | quad, triangle | Mesh topology type. Quad for smooth surfaces, triangle for detailed geometry. |
| target_polycount | No | integer | 30000 | 100–300000 | The desired number of polygons in the generated 3D model. Higher values give a more detailed, heavier mesh; lower values give a simpler, lighter one. |
| should_remesh | No | boolean | true | true, false | Rebuilds the model's surface grid for cleaner geometry. When off, returns the raw, unoptimized triangular mesh. |
| symmetry_mode | No | enum | "auto" | off, auto, on | Symmetry enforcement mode. "off" disables symmetry, "auto" decides automatically, "on" enforces symmetry. |
| enable_pbr | No | boolean | false | true, false | Generates realistic surface materials (PBR: metallic, roughness, normal maps) so the model reacts properly to light. Only available in full mode. |
| pose_mode | No | enum | "" | a-pose, t-pose, "" (empty) | Character pose for rigging. "a-pose" generates an A-pose, "t-pose" a T-pose; empty string for no specific pose. |
| enable_prompt_expansion | No | boolean | false | true, false | Automatically rewrites and enriches your prompt with extra detail before generation to improve results. |
| texture_prompt | No | string | — | Max 600 characters | Additional prompt to guide texturing. Only used in full mode. |
| texture_image_url | No | string | — | — | URL to a 2D image used to guide texturing. Only used in full mode. |
| enable_rigging | No | boolean | false | true, false | Auto-rig the generated model as a humanoid character, including basic walking and running animations. |
| rigging_height_meters | No | float | 1.7 | — | Approximate height of the rigged character in meters. Only used when enable_rigging is true. |
| enable_animation | No | boolean | false | true, false | Apply a predefined animation preset. Requires enable_rigging to be true. |
| animation_action_id | No | integer | 92 | 0–696 | Animation preset ID from Meshy's library. Only used when enable_animation is true. See https://docs.meshy.ai/en/api/animation-library. |
| enable_safety_checker | No | boolean | true | true, false | Turns on automatic filtering of unsafe or explicit (NSFW) content. Leave enabled unless you have a specific reason to disable it. |

Notes & Tips
- Poll the status endpoint every 2–3 seconds until status is COMPLETED, FAILED, or ERROR.
- Use enable_prompt_expansion to enhance vague prompts with semantic detail.
- For character models, combine enable_rigging, pose_mode, and enable_animation for ready-to-animate assets.
- Use texture_image_url for precise texture control when text prompts are insufficient.
- Set target_polycount appropriately: lower values (5k–15k) for web/mobile, higher (30k–100k) for high-end rendering.
- Always validate actual_prompt in COMPLETED responses to confirm prompt expansion behavior.
- Implement retry logic for transient ERROR or FAILED states.
- Predictive generation time: 15–60 seconds for preview mode, 30–120 seconds for full mode.
- Texture guidance works best with high-resolution source images (1024x1024+).
- Enable safety_checker is recommended for public applications to prevent inappropriate generation.

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
| Header | Required | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
X-Webhook-URL | Yes (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-Mode | No | terminal | terminal — 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": "meshy-6-i2-3d_019dxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx",
"status": "COMPLETED",
"model_id": "meshy-6-i2-3d",
"error": null,
"output": {
"media_url": [
"https://pub-582b7213209642b9b995c96c95a30381.r2.dev/v1/meshy-6-i2-3d_019dxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx/output.glb"
],
"media_type": "model/glb"
},
"created_at": "2026-05-22T13:17:32.110Z",
"updated_at": "2026-05-22 13:19:23",
"completed_at": "2026-05-22 13:19:23"
}
Failure callback shape
{
"request_id": "meshy-6-i2-3d_019dxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx",
"status": "ERROR",
"model_id": "meshy-6-i2-3d",
"error": "Description of the error",
"output": null,
"created_at": "...",
"updated_at": "...",
"completed_at": "..."
}
Delivery semantics
- terminal mode (default) — exactly one
POSTwhen the request reaches a terminal status. No callback duringPROCESSING. - sync mode —
POSTon every status poll (with delay capped at ~15s) plus a finalPOSTat terminal status. Use when you want progress updates. - Idempotency — use
request_idas your idempotency key. Network retries can deliver the same callback more than once; your handler must tolerate duplicates. - Response — respond
200 OKwithin 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.
Request Parameters - Meshy 6 i2-3d generate request
| Parameter | Required | Type | Default | Allowed values / range | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| image_url | Yes | string | — | — | URL of the input 2D image to convert into a 3D model. Supports .jpg, .jpeg and .png (also AVIF/HEIF); a base64 data URI is also accepted. |
| model_type | No | enum | "standard" | standard, lowpoly | Type of 3D mesh generation. "standard" produces a regular high-detail mesh; "lowpoly" produces a low-poly mesh optimized for cleaner geometry with fewer polygons. |
| topology | No | enum | "triangle" | quad, triangle | Mesh topology type. Quad for smooth surfaces, triangle for detailed geometry. |
| target_polycount | No | integer | 30000 | 100–300000 | The desired number of polygons in the generated 3D model. Higher values give a more detailed, heavier mesh; lower values give a simpler, lighter one. |
| symmetry_mode | No | enum | "auto" | off, auto, on | Symmetry enforcement mode. "off" disables symmetry, "auto" decides automatically, "on" enforces symmetry. |
| should_remesh | No | boolean | true | true, false | Rebuilds the model's surface grid for cleaner geometry. When off, returns the raw, unoptimized triangular mesh. |
| should_texture | No | boolean | true | true, false | Generates a texture map for the 3D model. When off, returns untextured geometry only. |
| enable_pbr | No | boolean | false | true, false | Generates realistic surface materials (PBR: metallic, roughness, normal maps) in addition to the base colour, so the model reacts properly to light. |
| pose_mode | No | enum | "" | a-pose, t-pose, "" (empty) | Character pose for rigging. "a-pose" generates an A-pose, "t-pose" a T-pose; empty string for no specific pose. |
| texture_prompt | No | string | — | Max 600 characters | Additional text prompt used to guide the texturing process. |
| texture_image_url | No | string | — | — | URL to a 2D image used to guide the texturing process. |
| enable_rigging | No | boolean | false | true, false | Auto-rig the generated model as a humanoid character, including basic walking and running animations. |
| rigging_height_meters | No | float | 1.7 | — | Approximate height of the rigged character in meters. Only used when enable_rigging is true. |
| enable_animation | No | boolean | false | true, false | Apply a predefined animation preset. Requires enable_rigging to be true. |
| animation_action_id | No | integer | 92 | 0–696 | Animation preset ID from Meshy's library. Only used when enable_animation is true. See https://docs.meshy.ai/en/api/animation-library. |
| enable_safety_checker | No | boolean | true | true, false | Turns on automatic filtering of unsafe or explicit (NSFW) content. Leave enabled unless you have a specific reason to disable it. |

Typical Workflow
- Send a generate request to the API endpoint
- Save the
request_idfrom the response - Poll every 5-10 seconds:
GET /v2/requests/status/{request_id} - When
statusis"COMPLETED", download fromoutput.media_url
Tip: Use X-Webhook-URL header to get a callback instead of polling.
