This processor sends an image description and other attributes, such as image size and quality to the OpenAI API, which generates an image. By default, the processor submits the entire payload of each message as a string, unless you use the `prompt` configuration field to customize it.

To learn more about image generation, see the https://platform.openai.com/docs/guides/images[OpenAI API documentation^].

== Fields

=== `server_address`

The Open API endpoint that the processor sends requests to. Update the default value to use another OpenAI compatible service.


*Type*: `string`

*Default*: `"https://api.openai.com/v1"`

=== `api_key`

The API key for OpenAI API.
[CAUTION]
====
This field contains sensitive information that usually shouldn't be added to a config directly, read our xref:configuration:secrets.adoc[secrets page for more info].
====



*Type*: `string`


=== `model`

The name of the OpenAI model to use.


*Type*: `string`


```yml
# Examples

model: dall-e-3

model: dall-e-2
```

=== `prompt`

A text description of the image you want to generate. The `prompt` field accepts a maximum of 1000 characters for `dall-e-2` and 4000 characters for `dall-e-3`.


*Type*: `string`


=== `quality`

The quality of the image to generate. Use `hd` to create images with finer details and greater consistency across the image. This parameter is only supported for `dall-e-3` models.
This field supports xref:configuration:interpolation.adoc#bloblang-queries[interpolation functions].


*Type*: `string`


```yml
# Examples

quality: standard

quality: hd
```

=== `size`

The size of the generated image. Choose from `256x256`, `512x512`, or `1024x1024` for `dall-e-2`. Choose from `1024x1024`, `1792x1024`, or `1024x1792` for `dall-e-3` models.
This field supports xref:configuration:interpolation.adoc#bloblang-queries[interpolation functions].


*Type*: `string`


```yml
# Examples

size: 1024x1024

size: 512x512

size: 1792x1024

size: 1024x1792
```

=== `style`

The style of the generated image. Choose from `vivid` or `natural`. Vivid causes the model to lean towards generating hyperreal and dramatic images. Natural causes the model to produce more natural, less hyperreal looking images. This parameter is only supported for `dall-e-3`.
This field supports xref:configuration:interpolation.adoc#bloblang-queries[interpolation functions].


*Type*: `string`


```yml
# Examples

style: vivid

style: natural
```
