Starts making one frame: your product photo, worn by the scene’s model, in the scene’s style. The answer is 202 with the frame in status queued. Poll GET /frames/{frame_id} until it is ready or failed. One frame is used from your allowance when you start, and it is refunded if the frame fails.

Pass regenerate_of with the id of an earlier frame to record that this one is a retry of it. The scene must be ready. A listed scene can, rarely, be refused with 422 scene_unsupported. Pick another scene when that happens.

When your plan is used up the answer is 402 quota_exceeded, with the allowance in details. If your plan could bill an extra frame but this key is not allowed extra frames, details also carries key_allows_overage: false and the message says so. Allow extra frames on the key in the web app, or wait for your plan to refill. Without that field, no key could get another frame on your plan right now.

Send an Idempotency-Key to make a retry safe, so one network error does not cost you two frames. Only 2xx answers are stored and replayed, for 24 hours. A request still running under the same key answers 409 idempotency_in_progress, and a claim older than 5 minutes is treated as abandoned.

Idempotency-Key
string
>= 1 characters <= 255 characters

A unique string you choose, 1 to 255 characters, for this request. Repeating the request with the same key and the same body replays the first answer for 24 hours instead of doing the work again. Only 2xx answers are stored. Using the same key with a different request answers 409 idempotency_conflict.
