Dall-E 2 (image generation) Node

Overview

The DALL-E 2 Node enables your flow to generate images using OpenAI's DALL-E 2 model. This node transforms text descriptions into high-quality images, making it ideal for applications requiring automated image generation, creative content production, or visual asset creation.

Usage cost: 2 credits

Configuration Settings

  1. Model Selection

    • Model*: Select OpenAI's DALL-E 2 model from available providers

    • Note: Only OpenAI provider is supported for DALL-E 2

  2. Image Generation

    • Prompt*: Text description of the image to generate

    • Image Size*: Select output resolution

      • 256x256: Small size, faster generation

      • 512x512: Medium size, balanced option

      • 1024x1024: Large size, highest detail

Outputs

  • image (Image): Generated image object for use in subsequent nodes

  • base64_image (string): Base64-encoded image data

Best Practices

  1. Prompt Engineering

    • Be specific and detailed in descriptions

    • Include key visual elements:

      • Style (e.g., "photorealistic", "oil painting", "3D render")

      • Composition (e.g., "close-up", "wide angle", "overhead view")

      • Lighting (e.g., "bright", "moody", "natural lighting")

      • Colors (e.g., "vibrant", "pastel", "monochromatic")

    • Maintain prompt clarity and coherence

  2. Size Selection

    • Choose 256x256 for:

      • Thumbnails and previews

      • Quick iterations and testing

      • Resource-efficient generation

    • Choose 512x512 for:

      • Medium-quality assets

      • Social media content

      • Balance between quality and speed

    • Choose 1024x1024 for:

      • High-quality visuals

      • Detailed illustrations

      • Professional content

Common Issues

  • API rate limiting

  • Network timeouts during image fetching
