-H "Authorization: Bearer $LAYER_TOKEN"- prompt string
- Describe what to generate, or the change to make.
- negative_prompt string
- What to keep out of the result.
- seed integer
- The starting point for the model's randomness. The same seed and settings give the same result.
- guidance_scale numberdefault 40–20
- How closely the result follows the prompt. Lower gives the model more freedom.
- inference_steps integerdefault 184–50
- How many refinement passes the model makes. More add detail and take longer.
- upscale_factor enumdefault 22, 4
- How many times larger the output is than the source.
- resemblance number0–1
- How closely the result keeps to the source. Higher stays truer to it.
- creativity number0–1
- How much new detail the model may invent. Higher can drift from the source.
- guidance_file_init_image file[]required
- The image to modify
- output_fit any
- Trim the transparent margin, and place the image on a canvas of a fixed size.
- prompt_language string
- The language the prompt is written in, so it reaches the model as you meant it.

How does Layer's pricing work?+
There are no seat fees, feature gates, or plans on Layer. Instead, our platform uses a consumption based system with Creative Units (CUs) with a flexible monthly subscription. Every generation on Layer (image, video, 3D, or audio) consumes a Creative Unit, and you only pay for what you create.
