Parameter Reference

Required Supported Not available

Core Parameters

Parameter	Type	Description	Modes
`prompt`	string	Required. Edit instruction for the image	T2I Edit
`seed`	integer	Random seed for reproducibility	T2I Edit

Size & Layout

Parameter	Type	Description	Modes
`size`	string	Image dimensions as WxH pixels (e.g. "1024x1024") or aspect ratio (e.g. "16:9") WxH determines both shape and scale (aspect_ratio and resolution are ignored when size is provided). W:H format is equivalent to aspect_ratio.	T2I Edit
`aspect_ratio`	string	Aspect ratio of the output image (e.g. "16:9", "1:1") Controls shape independently of scale. Use with resolution to control both. If size is also provided, size takes precedence. Any ratio is accepted and mapped to the nearest supported value.	T2I Edit
`resolution`	string	Output resolution tier (e.g. "1K", "4K") `auto` `1K` Controls scale independently of shape. Higher tiers produce larger images and cost more. If size is also provided, size takes precedence for scale. Any tier is accepted and mapped to the nearest supported value.	T2I Edit

Output	`size`		`aspect_ratio` + `resolution`
Flexible
Auto	`"auto"`	—	Model chooses optimal dimensions
Custom 1–14142px per side	`"WxH"`	—	Any pixel dimensions within model constraints

1K 8 sizes

Output	`size`		`aspect_ratio` + `resolution`
1183 × 887	`"1183x887"`	or	`"4:3"` + `"1K"`
1024 × 1024	`"1024x1024"`	or	`"1:1"` + `"1K"`
887 × 1182	`"887x1182"`	or	`"3:4"` + `"1K"`
836 × 1254	`"836x1254"`	or	`"2:3"` + `"1K"`
1254 × 836	`"1254x836"`	or	`"3:2"` + `"1K"`
768 × 1365	`"768x1365"`	or	`"9:16"` + `"1K"`
1365 × 768	`"1365x768"`	or	`"16:9"` + `"1K"`
1563 × 670	`"1563x670"`	or	`"21:9"` + `"1K"`

How these parameters work

size

Exact pixel dimensions

"1920x1080"

aspect_ratio

Shape only, default scale

"16:9"

resolution

Scale tier, preserves shape

"1K"

Priority when combined

size › aspect_ratio + resolution › aspect_ratio › resolution

size is most specific and always wins. aspect_ratio and resolution control shape and scale independently.

How matching works

Shape matching – we pick the closest supported ratio. Ask for 7:1 on a model with 4:1 and 8:1, you get 8:1.

Scale matching – providers use different tier formats: K tiers (0.5K 1K 2K 4K) or megapixel tiers (0.25 1). If the exact tier isn't available, you get the nearest one.

Dimension clamping – if a model has pixel limits, we clamp dimensions to fit and keep the aspect ratio intact.

Media Inputs

Parameter	Type	Description	Modes
`image`	file	Required. Input image(s) to edit Supports PNG, JPEG, WebP.	T2I Edit

Output & Format

Parameter	Type	Description	Modes
`response_format`	string	How to return the image `url` `b64_json` Default: `"url"`	T2I Edit
`output_format`	string	Output image format `png` `jpeg` `gif` `webp` `avif` Gateway converts to requested format if provider doesn't support it natively.	T2I Edit
`output_compression`	integer	Compression level for lossy formats (JPEG, WebP, AVIF)	T2I Edit
`n`	integer	Number of images to generate Default: `1` Gateway generates multiple images in parallel even if provider only supports 1.	T2I Edit

Additional Parameters

Parameter	Type	Description	Modes
`enable_safety_checker` fal	boolean	If set to true, the safety checker will be enabled.	T2I Edit
`enhance_prompt` replicate	boolean	Enable prompt enhancement for higher quality results, this will take longer to generate.	T2I Edit
`enhance_prompt_mode` fal	string	The mode to use for enhancing prompt enhancement. Standard mode provides higher quality results but takes longer to generate. Fast mode provides average quality results but takes less time to generate. `fast` `standard`	T2I Edit
`height` replicate	integer	Custom image height (only used when size='custom'). Range: 1024-4096 pixels.	T2I Edit
`sequential_image_generation` replicate	string	Group image generation mode. 'disabled' generates a single image. 'auto' lets the model decide whether to generate multiple related images (e.g., story scenes, character variations). `disabled`	T2I Edit
`sync_mode` fal	boolean	If `True`, the media will be returned as a data URI and the output data won't be available in the request history.	T2I Edit
`width` replicate	integer	Custom image width (only used when size='custom'). Range: 1024-4096 pixels.	T2I Edit

Parameter Normalization

How we handle parameters across different providers

Not every provider speaks the same language. When you send a parameter, we handle it in one of four ways depending on what the model supports:

Behavior	What happens	Example
`passthrough`	Sent as-is to the provider	style, quality
`renamed`	Same value, mapped to the field name the provider expects	prompt
`converted`	Transformed to the provider's native format	size
`emulated`	Works even if the provider has no concept of it	n, response_format

Parameters we don't recognize pass straight through to the upstream API, so provider-specific options still work.
