  "prompt": "1girl, brown hair, green eyes, colorful, autumn, cumulonimbus clouds, lighting, blue sky, falling leaves, garden",
  "guidanceScale": 12,
  "numberOfOutputs": 1,
  "numberOfInferenceSteps": 50
}

Input Fields:

  • seed (optional, integer): A random seed for generating images. If omitted, a random seed is used.

]

This URL provides direct access to the created image based on the provided prompt and parameters.

Conceptual Usage Example (Python)

Here’s how you might call the Generate Anime Style Images action using Python:

import requests
import json

# Replace with your Cognitive Actions API key and endpoint
COGNITIVE_ACTIONS_API_KEY = "YOUR_COGNITIVE_ACTIONS_API_KEY"
COGNITIVE_ACTIONS_EXECUTE_URL = "https://api.cognitiveactions.com/actions/execute"  # Hypothetical endpoint

action_id = "60fe1024-7569-4953-9d2b-edcc5e3287df"  # Action ID for Generate Anime Style Images

# Construct the input payload based on the action's requirements
payload = {
    "width": 512,
    "height": 512,
    "prompt": "1girl, brown hair, green eyes, colorful, autumn, cumulonimbus clouds, lighting, blue sky, falling leaves, garden",
    "guidanceScale": 12,
    "numberOfOutputs": 1,
    "numberOfInferenceSteps": 50
}

headers = {
    "Authorization": f"Bearer {COGNITIVE_ACTIONS_API_KEY}",
    "Content-Type": "application/json"
}

try:
    response = requests.post(
        COGNITIVE_ACTIONS_EXECUTE_URL,
        headers=headers,
        json={"action_id": action_id, "inputs": payload}  # Hypothetical structure
    )
    response.raise_for_status()  # Raise an exception for bad status codes (4xx or 5xx)

    result = response.json()
    print("Action executed successfully:")
    print(json.dumps(result, indent=2))

except requests.exceptions.RequestException as e:
    print(f"Error executing action {action_id}: {e}")
    if e.response is not None:
        print(f"Response status: {e.response.status_code}")
        try:
            print(f"Response body: {e.response.json()}")
        except json.JSONDecodeError:
            print(f"Response body: {e.response.text}")

In this example, replace YOUR_COGNITIVE_ACTIONS_API_KEY with your actual API key. The action ID and input payload are structured according to the requirements of the Generate Anime Style Images action. This snippet highlights how to send a request to the Cognitive Actions endpoint and handle the response.
