[Text to image](/docs/models/gpt-image-2.6-sunburst/generations) · [Reference image edits](/docs/models/gpt-image-2.6-sunburst/edits)

Generations support JPEG, PNG, WebP and animated GIF. Use automatic sizing for GIF generation. The live sample returned nine frames at 200 ms per frame. Custom timing and frame counts are unverified.

```bash
curl "https://newrouters.com/v1/tasks" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  --data '{
  "model": "gpt-image-2.6-sunburst",
  "input": {
    "prompt": "A blue ceramic cup on white with soft side lighting and a detailed glaze.",
    "size": "auto",
    "quality": "low",
    "output_format": "jpeg"
  }
}'
```

Save the task ID and poll `GET /v1/tasks/{id}` with the same key. On success, download the file from `result.assets`.
