OpenAI's cost-effective image generation model for when image quality isn't the top priority
GPT Image 1 Mini API OpenAI-compatible
Integrate GPT Image 1 Mini into your application for automated text-to-image generation and image editing via the Lumenfall OpenAI-compatible API. This standardized endpoint allows developers to programmatically generate and modify media using simple POST requests.

Parameter Reference
Core Parameters
| Parameter | Type | Description | Modes |
|---|---|---|---|
prompt
|
string | Required. Text prompt for image generation |
T2I

|
quality
|
string |
Image quality level
high
low
medium

Size & Layout
| Parameter | Type | Description | Modes |
|---|---|---|---|
size
|
string |
Image dimensions as WxH pixels (e.g. "1024x1024") or aspect ratio (e.g. "16:9")
1024x1024
1536x1024
1024x1536
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")
2:3
1:1
3:2
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")
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.

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 is most specific and always wins. aspect_ratio and resolution control shape and scale independently.
How matching works
7:1 on a model with
4:1 and 8:1,
you get 8:1.
0.5K 1K 2K 4K)
or megapixel tiers (0.25 1).
If the exact tier isn't available, you get the nearest one.

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.
