Input Parameters

Name	Type	Description	Default	Constraints
`image_input`	array	List of images to send to the model		—
`max_completion_tokens`	integer	Maximum number of completion tokens to generate	`4096`	—
`messages`	array	A JSON string representing a list of messages. For example: [{"role": "user", "content": "Hello, how are you?"}]. If provided, prompt and system_prompt are ignored.		—
`prompt`	string	The prompt to send to the model. Do not use if using messages.	`—`	—
`reasoning_effort`	string	Constrains effort on reasoning for reasoning models. Currently supported values are low, medium, and high. Reducing reasoning effort can result in faster responses and fewer tokens used on reasoning in a response.	`"medium"`	lowmediumhigh
