## Quick Example

Let's generate an image using an input image and a prompt that defines how it should be edited.

{% tab title="Python" %}
{% code overflow="wrap" %}

```python
import requests
import json  # for getting a structured output with indentation

def main():
    response = requests.post(
        "https://api.aimlapi.com/v1/images/generations",
        headers={
            # Insert your AIML API Key instead of <YOUR_AIMLAPI_KEY>:

    data = response.json()
    print(json.dumps(data, indent=2, ensure_ascii=False))

if __name__ == "__main__":
    main()
```

{% endcode %}
{% endtab %}

{% tab title="JS" %}

```javascript

const data = await response.json();
console.log(JSON.stringify(data, null, 2));
