This is more than just an ordinary image improvement tool, it's a game-changer that will revolutionize the way you work with images. And the best part? It’s beginner friendly and super easy to use! 

In this blog, we'll take a closer look at the Super Resolution Endpoint and see how it can bring your images to life in a whole new way.

Getting started with the Super Resolution Endpoint

Setting up account

To use any endpoint, you need to have an active API key. To get the API key, sign up on the official website and buy a plan or you can use the free quota with some limits. Once you sign up, you can see your dashboard like the one below

In order to view your API key, you need to click the ‘View’ button and then you will be able to see your API key. We can use the API key with any programming language to interact with the endpoint. In this tutorial, we will use the python requests module to interact with the API endpoint.

Making API calls

We can use either the requests module or the http.client method to send the API calls. We use the following code to send the API call to the super resolution endpoint.

import requests

url = "https://stablediffusionapi.com/api/v3/super_resolution"

payload = {
 "key": "Your API key",
 "url": "https://stable-diffusion-api.s3.amazonaws.com/generations/1668922501_1-0.png",
 "scale": 5,
 "face_enhance": 'false'
}
headers = {}

response = requests.request("POST", url, headers=headers, data=payload)

print(response.text)

In the above code, we first imported the requests module, and then we gave the endpoint URL that generates our images. In the next line, we created a variable called ‘payload’ which contains all the parameters that our API needs in order to generate the image. We created a response request to send all these parameters to the API endpoint and printed the output in the last step. The output of the above code looks like the below:

Output:

You can see that the output contains the status of the API call, generation time, and a link to the generated image. Below is the image that compares the original image with the generated image. 

This is how the super resolution endpoint works. It is very simple and beginner friendly as we saw now. Now let’s explore the different parameters that this endpoint uses. 

Parameters for the Super Resolution Endpoint

The super resolution endpoint allows customization regarding the scale of the image and we can also use a face enhance option to make the image clear. The following parameters are available for this endpoint

{
 "key": "Your API key",
 "url": Url for the image link,
 "scale": Integer that tells the model to scale,
 "webhook": A webhook to get the image,
 "face_enhance": Boolean value to use the face enhancement feature
}
