Parameters

Path Parameters

workspace_id

required

Workspace Id

Id of the workspace that owns the resource.

string format: uuid

Id of the workspace that owns the resource.

Query Parameters

session_name

Session Name

Organize this run under a named session. A new session is created if none matches.

string

nullable

Organize this run under a named session. A new session is created if none matches.

Header Parameters

Idempotency-Key

string

<= 255 characters

Opaque key making a retry of this request return the first result. A 2xx response is replayed for 24 hours with Idempotent-Replayed: true. A 4xx releases the key. A 5xx, or a request still running, holds the key for 120 seconds, during which a retry gets 409; after that a retry executes again. The key covers the method, path, query, and byte-identical body it was first used with; reusing it for a different request is rejected with 422. Protection is best effort: if the key store is unavailable, or a record is lost early, a retry can execute again even after an earlier 409. See the Idempotency section of the API description.

Request Body^required

application/json

Meshy V6

object

prompt

Prompt

Describe what to generate, or the change to make.

string

"" <= 600 characters

prompt_enhancement

Prompt enhancement

Let the model rewrite the prompt before generating.

Advanced field.

string

default: AUTO

Allowed values: AUTO OFF STANDARD

seed

Seed

The starting point for the model’s randomness. The same seed and settings give the same result.

Advanced field.

integer

nullable

draft

Draft

Render a quick, low-cost preview you can complete at full quality later.

boolean

face_limit

Face limit

The maximum number of faces in the output mesh.

integer

default: 30000 >= 200 <= 300000 multiple of 50

quad_mesh

Quads

Build the mesh from four-sided faces, which are easier to edit and rig than triangles.

boolean

nullable

include_textures

Generate textures

Paint colour onto the mesh. Off returns bare geometry.

boolean

default: true

pbr_materials

PBR materials

Add metalness, roughness and normal maps so the model reacts to light in a game engine.

boolean

enable_rigging

Rigging

Add a skeleton so the model is ready to animate.

boolean

nullable

pose_mode

Pose

The pose a character is built in. An A-pose or T-pose is easier to rig.

Advanced field.

string

default: NONE

Allowed values: NONE A_POSE T_POSE

texture_resolution

Texture size

Resolution of the painted texture. 8K costs extra.

string

default: NONE

Allowed values: NONE RES_2K RES_4K RES_8K

remove_lighting

Remove lighting

Strip baked highlights and shadows from the texture so it lights evenly in a game engine.

Advanced field.

boolean

default: true

mesh_density

Mesh density

Let the model size the face count to the shape at one of four densities instead of a fixed face limit.

string

default: NONE

Allowed values: NONE ULTRA HIGH MEDIUM LOW

guidance_file_init_image

Source images

Views of the same subject, in any order

Array<object>

InferenceFormFileRef

A single guidance/reference file supplied to a reference_image_list field.

The slot’s guidance type is fixed by the field it’s attached to; the caller supplies the file (its URL, or the id of a file it can read) and, where the model supports per-file weighting, a weight.

object

url

required

Url

The file’s URL, or the id of a file in this workspace or a public file.

string

weight

Weight

number

nullable

prompt_language

Prompt language

The language the prompt is written in, so it reaches the model as you meant it.

Advanced field.

string

nullable

Example

{
  "prompt": "a knight standing in a snowy forest",
  "draft": false,
  "face_limit": 30000,
