## API Information

This model can be used via our HTTP API or more conveniently via our client libraries.
See the input and output schema below, as well as the usage examples.


### Input Schema

The API accepts the following input parameters:


- **`prompt`** (`string`, _required_):
  The prompt to generate an image from.

  URL of image to use as initial image.
  - Examples: "https://fal.media/files/koala/h6a7KK2Ie_inuGbdartoX.jpeg"

- **`change_map_image_url`** (`string`, _required_):
  URL of change map.
  - Examples: "https://fal.media/files/zebra/Wh4IYAiAAcVbuZ8M9ZMSn.jpeg"

- **`strength`** (`float`, _optional_):
  The strength to use for image-to-image. 1.0 is completely remakes the image while 0.0 preserves the original. Default value: `0.85`
  - Default: `0.85`
  - Range: `0.01` to `1`

- **`num_inference_steps`** (`integer`, _optional_):
  The number of inference steps to perform. Default value: `28`
  - Default: `28`
  - Range: `1` to `50`

- **`seed`** (`integer`, _optional_):
  The same seed and the same prompt given to the same version of the model
  will output the same image every time.

- **`guidance_scale`** (`float`, _optional_):
  The CFG (Classifier Free Guidance) scale is a measure of how close you want
  the model to stick to your prompt when looking for a related image to show you. Default value: `3.5`
  - Default: `3.5`
  - Range: `0` to `20`

- **`sync_mode`** (`boolean`, _optional_):
  If `True`, the media will be returned as a data URI and the output data won't be available in the request history.
  - Default: `false`

- **`num_images`** (`integer`, _optional_):
  The number of images to generate. Default value: `1`
  - Default: `1`
  - Range: `1` to `4`

- **`enable_safety_checker`** (`boolean`, _optional_):
  If set to true, the safety checker will be enabled. Default value: `true`
  - Default: `true`

## Usage Examples

### cURL

```bash
curl --request POST \
  --url https://fal.run/fal-ai/flux-differential-diffusion \
  --header "Authorization: Key $FAL_KEY" \
  --header "Content-Type: application/json" \
  --data '{
     "prompt": "Tree of life under the sea, ethereal, glittering, lens flares, cinematic lighting, artwork by Anna Dittmann & Carne Griffiths, 8k, unreal engine 5, hightly detailed, intricate detailed.",
     "image_url": "https://fal.media/files/koala/h6a7KK2Ie_inuGbdartoX.jpeg",
     "change_map_image_url": "https://fal.media/files/zebra/Wh4IYAiAAcVbuZ8M9ZMSn.jpeg"
   }'
```

### Python

Ensure you have the Python client installed:

```bash
pip install fal-client
```

Then use the API client to make requests:

```python
import fal_client

def on_queue_update(update):
    if isinstance(update, fal_client.InProgress):
        for log in update.logs:
           print(log["message"])

result = fal_client.subscribe(
    "fal-ai/flux-differential-diffusion",
    arguments={
        "prompt": "Tree of life under the sea, ethereal, glittering, lens flares, cinematic lighting, artwork by Anna Dittmann & Carne Griffiths, 8k, unreal engine 5, hightly detailed, intricate detailed.",
        "image_url": "https://fal.media/files/koala/h6a7KK2Ie_inuGbdartoX.jpeg",
        "change_map_image_url": "https://fal.media/files/zebra/Wh4IYAiAAcVbuZ8M9ZMSn.jpeg"
    },
    with_logs=True,
    on_queue_update=on_queue_update,
)
print(result)
```

### JavaScript

Ensure you have the JavaScript client installed:

```bash
npm install --save @fal-ai/client
```

Then use the API client to make requests:

```javascript
import { fal } from "@fal-ai/client";

const result = await fal.subscribe("fal-ai/flux-differential-diffusion", {
  input: {
    prompt: "Tree of life under the sea, ethereal, glittering, lens flares, cinematic lighting, artwork by Anna Dittmann & Carne Griffiths, 8k, unreal engine 5, hightly detailed, intricate detailed.",
    image_url: "https://fal.media/files/koala/h6a7KK2Ie_inuGbdartoX.jpeg",
    change_map_image_url: "https://fal.media/files/zebra/Wh4IYAiAAcVbuZ8M9ZMSn.jpeg"
  },
  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);
```
