Z-Image on RunAPI
Generate and edit images with Z-Image through RunAPI. The default path for one-off agent tasks is the runapi CLI; SDKs are for application integration.
Routing decision
- One-off generation, editing, or transformation for the user → use the CLI path with the
runapibinary. - Building an app, backend, worker, library, or production codebase → use the SDK integration path.
CLI path
The runapi binary is the runtime dependency. Authenticate with runapi login (browser) or set RUNAPI_API_KEY; a saved CLI config also works — no required environment variable.
Inspect the available actions and request fields with CLI help:
runapi z-image --help
runapi z-image text-to-image --help
Run a one-off task (synchronous — polls until the task completes):
runapi z-image text-to-image --input-file request.json
Submit asynchronously and poll separately:
runapi z-image text-to-image --async --input-file request.json
runapi wait \x3Ctask-id> --service z-image --action text-to-image
Available actions: text-to-image.
SDK integration path
When integrating Z-Image into an app, backend, worker, or library — not for one-off tasks — use a RunAPI SDK package:
- JavaScript / TypeScript:
@runapi.ai/z-image - Ruby:
runapi-z_image - Go:
github.com/runapi-ai/z-image-sdk/go
