## Quick Example

Let's generate an image using two input images and a prompt that defines how they should be edited.

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="Python" %}
{% code overflow="wrap" %}

```python
import requests
import json  # for getting a structured output with indentation

response = requests.post(
    "https://api.aimlapi.com/v1/images/generations",
    headers={
        # Insert your AIML API Key instead of <YOUR_AIMLAPI_KEY>:
        "Authorization":"Bearer <YOUR_AIMLAPI_KEY>",
        "Content-Type":"application/json",
    },
    json={
        "model":"bytedance/seedream-v4-edit",
        "prompt": "Add a bird to the foreground of the photo.",

    }
)

data = response.json()
print(json.dumps(data, indent=2, ensure_ascii=False))
```

{% endcode %}
{% endtab %}

{% tab title="JS" %}

```javascript
const response = await fetch('https://api.aimlapi.com/v1/images/generations', {

const data = await response.json();
console.log(JSON.stringify(data, null, 2));
```
