Quick Example

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

Python

import requests
import json

def main():
    response = requests.post(
        "https://api.aimlapi.com/v1/images/generations",
        headers={
            # Insert your AIML API Key instead of <YOUR_AIMLAPI_KEY>:
            "Authorization": "Bearer <YOUR_AIMLAPI_KEY>",
            "Content-Type": "application/json",
        },
        json={
            "model": "google/gemini-2.5-flash-image-edit",
            "image_urls": [
                "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/aimlapi/api-docs/main/reference-files/t-rex.png",
                "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/aimlapi/api-docs/main/reference-files/blue-mug.jpg"
            ],
            "prompt": "Combine the images so the T-Rex is wearing a business suit, sitting in a cozy small café, drinking from the mug. Blur the background slightly to create a bokeh effect.",
        }
    )

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

if __name__ == "__main__":
    main()
