`POST /assets/image`

## Request body

- GenerateImagePayload — Payload for generating an image from text prompt
  - `image_type` string, required — What kind of image to generate.
  - `prompt` string, required — Text description of the image to generate. The more detailed the prompt, the more accurate the image will be.
  - `art_style` string — Visual art style for the sprite (e.g., "Pixel Art", "Cartoonish", "Realistic").
  - `perspective` string — Camera angle/view for the sprite (e.g., "Side view", "Front view", "Isometric").
  - `aspect_ratio` string — Aspect ratio of the output image.
  - `n` number — Number of image variations to generate
  - `augment_prompt` boolean — Augment the prompt behind the scenes. Disable to have more control.
  - `request_id` string — Optional client-provided identifier for this request. Use this to retrieve results later via the results endpoint.

## Response `200`

Success

- ImageResult[]
  - `url` string
  - `request_id` string
  - `created_at` integer

## Other responses

- `400` — Error
