Input Schema

13 parameters · 1 required · 12 optional

Parameter	Type	Required	Description
`image`	string	Required	Image URL or base64 data URI for 3D model creation. Supports .jpg, .jpeg, and .png formats. Also supports AVIF and HEIF formats which will be automatically converted.
`topology`	string	Optional	quad for smooth surfaces, triangle for detail. · Options: quad, triangle · Default: "triangle" quadtriangle
`pose_mode`	string	Optional	a-pose, t-pose or empty for none. · Options: a-pose, t-pose, · Default: "" a-poset-pose
`enable_pbr`	boolean	Optional	Generate PBR maps (metallic, roughness, normal). · Default: false
`model_type`	string	Optional	standard, lowpoly or smart-topology. · Options: standard, lowpoly, smart-topology · Default: "standard" standardlowpolysmart-topology
`symmetry_mode`	string	Optional	off / auto / on. · Options: off, auto, on · Default: "auto" offautoon
`texture_image`	string	Optional	Image URL to guide texturing.
`enable_rigging`	boolean	Optional	Rig the model as a humanoid character (+$0.20). · Default: false
`should_texture`	boolean	Optional	Generate textures (untextured models are cheaper). · Default: true
`texture_prompt`	string	Optional	Text prompt to guide texturing. · Max length: 600
`enable_animation`	boolean	Optional	Apply an animation preset; requires enable_rigging (+$0.12). · Default: false
`target_polycount`	integer	Optional	Target polygon count (100–300,000). · Min: 100 · Max: 300000 · Default: 30000
`geometry_resolution`	string	Optional	Geometry resolution. · Options: standard, 2k, 4k · Default: "standard" standard2k4k

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, or timeout
Retrieve — Read outputs from the completed response
