Getting started with Krea
- Generate an API token at krea.ai/settings/api tokens.
- Upload your input image reference using POST /assets.
- Create an edit by calling POST /generate/image/krea/krea 3 with your prompt and reference, and save the job_id from the response.
- Poll GET /jobs/{job_id} until the status is completed to get your output image from result.urls[0].
Tips
- Keep your API token on your server and never ship it in client side code.
- Write prompts in plain language by leading with the change and closing with one preservation sentence when the rest of the image should stay the same.
- Set regional_edit to true for local edits where the rest of the image must stay pixel exact.
