## [grok-imagine-image-2.0](https://ailoot.ai/models/en/grok-imagine-image-2-0/)

Grok Imagine Image 2.0 creates images from descriptions with selectable proportions, resolution and quality. The model itself also supports image editing and visual style transfer.

About the model

This description covers the model’s capabilities. Available in Ailoot inputs, outputs and options are listed for the selected method below.

#### Generating and refining an image

Grok Imagine Image 2.0 receives a scene description and creates an image. The xAI model can also work with source visual material: applying changes through text instructions and continuing to edit using the previous result as a new input. Ailoot publishes a text-based generation method.

#### Visual styles

For Image 2.0, xAI describes realistic photography, anime, oil painting and pencil drawing. Style is specified in words; when working with a source image, the instruction defines the desired aesthetic. Sequential changes allow details to be added and the result refined step by step.

#### Proportions, size and quantity

- `n` specifies 1 to 10 images from one description, with one as the default.
- `aspect_ratio` selects frame shape; `auto` leaves the choice to the model.
- `resolution` specifies 1K or 2K, with 1K as the standard value.

Square, landscape and portrait formats are provided: `1:1`, `16:9`, `9:16`, `4:3`, `3:4`, `3:2`, `2:3`, `2:1`, `1:2`. Elongated screen formats include `19.5:9`, `9:19.5`, `20:9`, `9:20`, alongside wide `21:9` and `5:2`.

#### Selecting quality

Image 2.0 supports `low`, `medium` and `auto`. The parameter belongs specifically to this version; `auto` is used when quality is not specified. At the time of verification, automatic mode selects `low` for generation and `medium` for editing.

According to xAI, `medium` allocates more computation to detailed image development. Explicitly selecting `low` or `medium` fixes the required mode, whereas `auto` behavior is determined by the manufacturer's current setting.

#### Input and result

The model has text and visual inputs, and images as its result. In xAI's own editing mode, Image 2.0 accepts up to five source images; Ailoot's current generation method uses text input. A result can be delivered as a file through a link or in base64.

### Receive and save results

#### Ailoot · Images

Download each returned image or save its Base64 contents

- `GET /v1/media/tasks/{task_id}`
- `GET /v1/media/assets/{asset_id}/content`
- `GET /v1/media/assets`
- `GET /v1/media/assets/{asset_id}`

##### Keep all completed results

Save every completed image; retrieve each returned URL or decode its Base64 contents.

Save every data item. Decode each b64\_json or fetch every returned signed URL. Select a filename extension from the actual MIME/bytes.

##### If the original response needs checking

If an image generation or edit result requires a check, keep the original operation\_id/X-Client-Request-ID and returned result information. Recover existing owned results through the media library using actual task\_id or asset\_id values. Do not resubmit the generation/edit request or construct a polling URL from operation\_id.

Response fields

| Field | Type |
| --- | --- |
| Field`created` | Typeinteger |
| Field`data[].url` | Typestring |
| Field`data[].b64_json` | Typebase64 string |
| Field`usage` | Typeobject |

Errors and next steps

| Response | Condition | Next step |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Response400 · `invalid_request_error` | ConditionInvalid required fields, material representation or parameter value | Next stepCorrect the indicated fields before a new creation request. |
| Response`server_error` | ConditionThe returned response says the operation or result requires a check | Next stepKeep the original returned operation/task ID, request headers and response; continue supported reads of that original operation. Do not resubmit the creation request. |
