Edit images using Bytedance's SeedDream 4.5 model.
The client provides a convenient way to interact with the model API.
npm install --save @fal-ai/clientThe @fal-ai/serverless-client package has been deprecated in favor of @fal-ai/client. Install the new package and update your imports — see client setup.
Set FAL_KEY as an environment variable in your runtime.
export FAL_KEY="YOUR_API_KEY"The client API handles the API submit protocol. It will handle the request status updates and return the result when the request is completed.
import { fal } from "@fal-ai/client";
const result = await fal.subscribe("fal-ai/bytedance/seedream/v4.5/edit", {
input: {
prompt: "Replace the product in Figure 1 with that in Figure 2. For the title copy the text in Figure 3 to the top of the screen, the title should have a clear contrast with the background but not be overly eye-catching.",
image_urls: ["https://storage.googleapis.com/falserverless/example_inputs/seedreamv45/seedream_v45_edit_input_1.png", "https://storage.googleapis.com/falserverless/example_inputs/seedreamv45/seedream_v45_edit_input_2.png", "https://storage.googleapis.com/falserverless/example_inputs/seedreamv45/seedream_v45_edit_input_3.png"]
},
logs: true,
onQueueUpdate: (update) => {
if (update.status === "IN_PROGRESS") {
update.logs.map((log) => log.message).forEach(console.log);
}
},
});
console.log(result.data);
console.log(result.requestId);The API uses an API Key for authentication. It is recommended you set the FAL_KEY environment variable in your runtime when possible.
import { fal } from "@fal-ai/client";
fal.config({
credentials: "YOUR_FAL_KEY"
});When running code on the client-side (e.g. in a browser, mobile app or GUI applications), make sure to not expose your FAL_KEY. Instead, use a server-side proxy to make requests to the API. For more information, check out our server-side integration guide.
The client API provides a convenient way to submit requests to the model.
import { fal } from "@fal-ai/client";
const { request_id } = await fal.queue.submit("fal-ai/bytedance/seedream/v4.5/edit", {
input: {
prompt: "Replace the product in Figure 1 with that in Figure 2. For the title copy the text in Figure 3 to the top of the screen, the title should have a clear contrast with the background but not be overly eye-catching.",
image_urls: ["https://storage.googleapis.com/falserverless/example_inputs/seedreamv45/seedream_v45_edit_input_1.png", "https://storage.googleapis.com/falserverless/example_inputs/seedreamv45/seedream_v45_edit_input_2.png", "https://storage.googleapis.com/falserverless/example_inputs/seedreamv45/seedream_v45_edit_input_3.png"]
},
webhookUrl: "https://optional.webhook.url/for/results",
});You can fetch the status of a request to check if it is completed or still in progress.
import { fal } from "@fal-ai/client";
const status = await fal.queue.status("fal-ai/bytedance/seedream/v4.5/edit", {
requestId: "764cabcf-b745-4b3e-ae38-1200304cf45b",
logs: true,
});Once the request is completed, you can fetch the result. See the Output Schema for the expected result format.
import { fal } from "@fal-ai/client";
const result = await fal.queue.result("fal-ai/bytedance/seedream/v4.5/edit", {
requestId: "764cabcf-b745-4b3e-ae38-1200304cf45b"
});
console.log(result.data);
console.log(result.requestId);Some attributes in the API accept file URLs as input. Whenever that's the case you can pass your own URL or a Base64 data URI.
You can pass a Base64 data URI as a file input. The API will handle the file decoding for you. Keep in mind that for large files, this alternative although convenient can impact the request performance.
You can also pass your own URLs as long as they are publicly accessible. Be aware that some hosts might block cross-site requests, rate-limit, or consider the request as a bot.
We provide a convenient file storage that allows you to upload files and use them in your requests. You can upload files using the client API and use the returned URL in your requests.
import { fal } from "@fal-ai/client";
const file = new File(["Hello, World!"], "hello.txt", { type: "text/plain" });
const url = await fal.storage.upload(file);The client will auto-upload the file for you if you pass a binary object (e.g. File, Data).
Read more about file handling in our file upload guide.
prompt string* requiredThe text prompt used to edit the image
The size of the generated image. Width and height must be between 1920 and 4096, or total number of pixels must be between 25601440 and 40964096.
Possible enum values: square_hd, square, portrait_4_3, portrait_16_9, landscape_4_3, landscape_16_9, auto_2K, auto_4K
Note: For custom image sizes, you can pass the width and height as an object:
"image_size": {
"width": 1280,
"height": 720
}num_images integerNumber of separate model generations to be run with the prompt. Default value: 1
max_images integerIf set to a number greater than one, enables multi-image generation. The model will potentially return up to max_images images every generation, and in total, num_images generations will be carried out. In total, the number of images generated will be between num_images and max_images*num_images. The total number of images (image inputs + image outputs) must not exceed 15 Default value: 1
seed integerRandom seed to control the stochasticity of image generation.
sync_mode booleanIf True, the media will be returned as a data URI and the output data won't be available in the request history.
enable_safety_checker booleanIf set to true, the safety checker will be enabled. Disabling it requires account authorization; unauthorized requests are always checked. Default value: true
List of URLs of input images for editing. Presently, up to 10 image inputs are allowed. If over 10 images are sent, only the last 10 will be used.
