How to Utilize the LW_Architectural_MIX API for Image Generation

Feb 6, 2024 | Educational

Welcome to the exciting world of AI image generation! In this article, we will walk you through how to use the LW_Architectural_MIX API to create stunning ultra-realistic images based on your prompts. Whether you are a developer or a designer, this guide is tailored for you!

Getting Started: Obtain Your API Key

The first step in using the LW_Architectural_MIX API is to acquire your API key from ModelsLab API. Let’s make it clear: it’s free! Simply register, and you will receive your key in no time.

Setting Up Your Environment

Now that you have your API key, you’ll need to replace it in the code snippet below. Make sure to also change model_id to lwarchitecturalmix.

import requests
import json

url = "https://modelslab.com/api/v6/images/text2img"
payload = json.dumps({
    "key": "your_api_key",
    "model_id": "lwarchitecturalmix",
    "prompt": "ultra realistic close up portrait ((beautiful pale cyberpunk female with heavy black eyeliner)), blue eyes, shaved side haircut, hyper detail, cinematic lighting, magic neon, dark red city, Canon EOS R3, nikon, f1.4, ISO 200, 1/160s, 8K, RAW, unedited, symmetrical balance, in-frame, 8K",
    "negative_prompt": "painting, extra fingers, mutated hands, poorly drawn hands, poorly drawn face, deformed, ugly, blurry, bad anatomy, bad proportions, extra limbs, cloned face, skinny, glitchy, double torso, extra arms, extra hands, mangled fingers, missing lips, ugly face, distorted face, extra legs, anime",
    "width": 512,
    "height": 512,
    "samples": 1,
    "num_inference_steps": 30,
    "safety_checker": "no",
    "enhance_prompt": "yes",
    "seed": None,
    "guidance_scale": 7.5,
    "multi_lingual": "no",
    "panorama": "no",
    "self_attention": "no",
    "upscale": "no",
    "embeddings": "embeddings_model_id",
    "lora": "lora_model_id",
    "webhook": None,
    "track_id": None
})

headers = {
    "Content-Type": "application/json"
}

response = requests.request("POST", url, headers=headers, data=payload)

print(response.text)

Breaking Down the Code: An Analogy

Think of the API request process like placing an order at a restaurant:

  • The Restaurant: Represents the API (in this case, LW_Architectural_MIX).
  • Your Table: The API endpoint (the URL you will be sending the request to).
  • The Menu: Your payload/data, which contains your specific order (the image you want), such as style and details like prompt and negative_prompt.
  • The Waiter: The requests library, which takes your order (data) to the kitchen (API) and returns your dish (the generated image).
  • The Meal: The response from the API, which will either be the delightful image you requested or an error (bad order).

Troubleshooting Common Issues

If you encounter issues while using the API, here are some common troubleshooting steps:

  • Ensure that your API key is correctly inserted and has permission to access the model.
  • Check the model_id to confirm it’s set to lwarchitecturalmix.
  • Verify the formatting of your JSON payload. JSON formats can often throw errors if not structured correctly.
  • Ensure you’re using valid prompts and parameters.
  • If the response is not as expected, consider simplifying your prompts and checking for any issues in the request structure.
