Create a reference set (a curated collection of already-uploaded files) that can then be trained into a custom style/LoRA. Upload files first via the Files API, then pass their IDs here.
Authorizations
Section titled “Authorizations”Parameters
Section titled “Parameters”Path Parameters
Section titled “Path Parameters”Id of the workspace that owns the resource.
Id of the workspace that owns the resource.
Header Parameters
Section titled “Header Parameters”Opaque key making this request safe to retry. The first request with a given key executes; a later request with the same key returns that first response with Idempotent-Replayed: true instead of executing again. The key covers the method, path, query, and body it was first used with; reusing it for a different request is rejected with 422. Replayable for 24 hours.
Request Bodyrequired
Section titled “Request Bodyrequired”object
Display name for the reference set.
Training category: general (overall aesthetic), character (person/creature), object (specific item), scene (environment), or effect (visual effect).
Ordered image or video file IDs to include. Must belong to the workspace.
Responses
Section titled “Responses”Successful Response
object
ID of the created reference set (train this with a training run).
Number of input files added to the reference set.
Number of cover thumbnails set on the reference set.
Files from file_ids that were not included, each with the reason.
object
Why this file_id was not added: not_found (no such file), foreign_workspace (belongs to another workspace), already_member (already in the set), or duplicate_in_request (listed more than once in this call).
Example
{ "skipped": [ { "reason": "not_found" } ]}Unauthenticated — missing or invalid Bearer token.
object
Example
{ "type": "https://api.layer.ai/errors/ERROR_CODE", "title": "Error Title", "status": 400, "detail": "Human-readable description."}Forbidden — insufficient permissions, or the access token lacks the scope the operation requires.
object
Example
{ "type": "https://api.layer.ai/errors/ERROR_CODE", "title": "Error Title", "status": 400, "detail": "Human-readable description."}Resource not found.
object
Example
{ "type": "https://api.layer.ai/errors/ERROR_CODE", "title": "Error Title", "status": 400, "detail": "Human-readable description."}The request with this Idempotency-Key is still running — retry after the number of seconds in Retry-After.
object
Example
{ "type": "https://api.layer.ai/errors/ERROR_CODE", "title": "Error Title", "status": 400, "detail": "Human-readable description."}Invalid input parameters, or an Idempotency-Key reused for a different request.
object
Example
{ "type": "https://api.layer.ai/errors/ERROR_CODE", "title": "Error Title", "status": 400, "detail": "Human-readable description."}Rate limited — retry after the number of seconds in Retry-After.
object
Example
{ "type": "https://api.layer.ai/errors/ERROR_CODE", "title": "Error Title", "status": 400, "detail": "Human-readable description."}Internal server error.
object
Example
{ "type": "https://api.layer.ai/errors/ERROR_CODE", "title": "Error Title", "status": 400, "detail": "Human-readable description."}
