Workflows

1. Text-to-Image

POST /seedream/images
{
  "prompt": "a serene Japanese garden with cherry blossoms and a red bridge",
  "model": "seedream-3.0",
  "width": 1024,
  "height": 1024
}

2. Image Editing (Inpainting / Outpainting)

Edit regions of an existing image using a mask.

POST /seedream/images/edit
{
  "prompt": "replace with a golden sunset sky",

Gotchas

  • Maximum resolution is 2048×2048 — exceed this and requests fail
  • Mask images must be binary (black/white) with the same dimensions as the source image
  • seedream-3.0-turbo offers a good speed/quality trade-off for iterative workflows
  • Results return a direct image URL — no task polling needed for generation
  • Editing always requires both image_url and mask_url
