10 parameters · 2 required · 8 optional
| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
image | string | Required | The URL of the image to be inpainted. |
prompt | string | Required | The prompt for the image to image task. |
mask | string | Optional | The URL of the mask for inpainting. |
seed | integer | Optional | The same seed and the same prompt given to the same version of the model will output the same image every time. |
loras | object[] | Optional | The LoRAs to use for the image generation. You can use any number of LoRAs and they will be merged together to generate the final image. · Default: [] |
strength | number | Optional | The strength of the initial image. Higher strength values are better for this model. · Min: 0.01 · Max: 1 · Default: 0.88 |
output_format | string | Optional | The format of the generated image. · Options: jpeg, png · Default: "png" jpegpng |
guidance_scale | number | Optional | The CFG (Classifier Free Guidance) scale is a measure of how close you want the model to stick to your prompt when looking for a related image to show you. · Min: 0 · Max: 20 · Default: 2.5 |
num_inference_steps | integer | Optional | The number of inference steps to perform. · Min: 10 · Max: 50 · Default: 30 |
reference_image_url | string | Optional | The URL of the reference image for inpainting. |
Output Schema
| Field | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
id | string | Unique identifier for the generation task |
status | string | Task status: pending, running, completed, failed, timeout |
model | string | Model used for the generation |
outputs | array | Array of output items |
outputs[].url | string | URL of the generated artifact |
outputs[].content_type | string | MIME type (e.g. image/png, video/mp4) |
error | object | null | Error details if failed, null on success |
error.type | string | Machine-readable error type code |
error.message | string | Human-readable error description |
Async Workflow
This model uses asynchronous execution. Submit a request and poll for the result.
- Submit — POST to /v1/run, receive an
id - Poll — GET /v1/run/{id} until status is
completed,failed, ortimeout - Retrieve — Read
outputsfrom the completed response

Flux Kontext Lora Inpaint
Flux Kontext Lora Inpaint belongs at the localized contextual revision shaped by a learned identity stage of a visual workflow. Rather than treating the model as an isolated demonstration, teams can place it inside briefing, review, selection, and handoff practices where a selected area can be reopened without abandoning the customized look that connects the broader image collection. This positioning clarifies why the model earns a place in a real creative pipeline and what kind of decision it helps people make.
A practical use of Flux Kontext Lora Inpaint is branded object replacement, character corrections, styled repairs, and focused campaign edits that must remain part of the same visual family. Begin by agreeing on the creative objective and review criteria, prepare only the source material needed for that objective, and compare results against audience, brand, editorial, and production needs. Technical request choices remain documented below so the prose can stay focused on planning and creative value.
Highlights
Context-aware reconstruction. Rebuilds masked content with lighting, perspective, texture, and scale matched to its surroundings.
Semantic replacement. Follows written direction for new objects or materials instead of simply cloning nearby pixels.
Natural boundary blending. Integrates regenerated content across the mask edge without a pasted-on appearance.
Unmasked-area preservation. Concentrates generative change on the intended region while retaining the broader composition. Kontext-LoRA combines semantic image understanding with a learned concept, allowing both source-aware change and specialized identity.

When to Use
| ✅ Good fit | ❌ Consider alternatives |
|---|---|
| The project needs this exact FLUX capability | The intended task belongs to a different media workflow |
| Required source and control media are available | Necessary assets or usage rights are unavailable |
| Creative direction can state change and preservation goals | Output must be deterministic at pixel or frame level |
| Supported dimensions and formats match final delivery | Placement requires unsupported specifications |
| An asynchronous generated result fits production | A live frame-synchronous response is mandatory |
Prompt Guide
Lead with the main subject and action, then specify composition, context, lighting, materials, style, typography, and atmosphere. For editing, identify each source and clearly separate the requested transformation from the subjects, regions, geometry, or identity that must remain unchanged.
