> Generate high-quality images, posters, and logos with Ideogram latest V4.0 — producing crisp visuals with accurate text rendering, fine detail, and full creative control for polished, ready-to-use designs.
## Overview
- **Submit endpoint (POST)**: `https://api.atlascloud.ai/api/v1/model/generateImage` — start an async generation; returns a `prediction_id`
- **Poll endpoint (GET)**: `https://api.atlascloud.ai/api/v1/model/prediction/{prediction_id}` — poll this until the prediction finishes
- **Model ID**: `ideogram/v4/quality/text-to-image`
## API Information
This model can be used via our HTTP API or more conveniently via our client libraries.
See the input and output schema below, as well as the usage examples.
### Input Schema
The API accepts the following input parameters:
- **`model`** (`string`, _required_):
model name
- Default: `"ideogram/v4/quality/text-to-image"`
- **`prompt`** (`string`, _required_):
Text description of the image to generate. Maximum 2,000 characters.
- **`image_size`** (`string`, _optional_):
Output image size preset.
- Default: `"landscape_16_9"`
- Options: "square_hd", "square", "portrait_3_4", "portrait_9_16", "landscape_4_3", "landscape_16_9"
- **`output_format`** (`string`, _optional_):
File format of the generated image.
- Default: `"jpeg"`
- Options: "jpeg", "png"
- **`seed`** (`integer`, _optional_):
Random seed for reproducibility. Use the same seed and prompt to reproduce results.
- Min: 0
**Required Parameters Example**:
```json
{
"model": "ideogram/v4/quality/text-to-image",
"prompt": ""
}
```
**Full Example**:
```json
{
"model": "ideogram/v4/quality/text-to-image",
"prompt": "",
"image_size": "landscape_16_9",
"output_format": "jpeg",
"seed": 0
}
```
### Output Schema
The API returns the following output format:
- **`model`** (`string`, _optional_):
model name
- Default: `"ideogram/v4/quality/text-to-image"`
- **`created_at`** (`string`, _optional_):
ISO timestamp of when the request was created (e.g., "2023-04-01T12:34:56.789Z").
- **`id`** (`string`, _optional_):
Unique identifier for the prediction.
- **`outputs`** (`array[string]`, _optional_):
Array of URLs to the generated images. Null when status is not completed.
- **`status`** (`string`, _optional_):
Status of the task: created, processing, completed, or failed.
- **`urls`** (`object`, _optional_):
Object containing related API endpoints.
**Example Response**:
```json
{
"model": "ideogram/v4/quality/text-to-image",
"created_at": "",
"id": "",
"outputs": [
""
],
"status": "",
"urls": {}
}
```
## Usage Examples
### cURL
```bash
# Step 1: Start generation (async)
curl -X POST "https://api.atlascloud.ai/api/v1/model/generateImage" \
-H "Authorization: Bearer $ATLASCLOUD_API_KEY" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{
"model": "ideogram/v4/quality/text-to-image",
"prompt": "",
"image_size": "landscape_16_9",
"output_format": "jpeg",
"seed": 0
}'
# Response will contain: {"code": 200, "data": {"id": "prediction_id", "status": "processing"}}
# Step 2: Poll for result (replace {prediction_id} with the id returned above)
curl -X GET "https://api.atlascloud.ai/api/v1/model/prediction/{prediction_id}" \
-H "Authorization: Bearer $ATLASCLOUD_API_KEY"
# Keep polling until status is "completed", "succeeded" or "failed"
# When completed, outputs will contain the generated content URL(s)
```
