# Z Image Trainer API

> Entraîne un LoRA pour Z-Image Turbo à partir d’une archive zip d’images, avec un focus contenu, style ou équilibré

Ajuste fin d’un LoRA sur vos propres images fournies dans une archive zip, idéalement au moins 10, éventuellement avec un fichier texte de légende par image. Définissez `training_type` sur content, style ou balanced, `steps` entre 100 et 10000, ainsi que `learning_rate`. Un `default_caption` est utilisé pour les légendes manquantes. Produit les poids LoRA et un fichier de configuration.

- Model id: `z-image-trainer`
- Made by: Alibaba
- Category: Training
- Output: file
- Price: $0.00226 / step (cheapest run $2.26 (2260 API credits))
- Run: `POST https://api.doitong.com/v1/run/z-image-trainer`
- Quote: `POST https://api.doitong.com/v1/quote/z-image-trainer`
- Docs page: https://doitong.com/fr/developers/models/z-image-trainer

## Pricing

Price: **$0.00226 / step**. Billed per training step (`steps`).

The full example input below costs $2.26 = 2260 API credits (1000 steps × 2.26 API credits).

Prices are the upstream price in USD, paid from the API balance in API credits (1000 API credits = 1 USD). `POST https://api.doitong.com/v1/quote/z-image-trainer` with the same JSON body returns the exact price for that input; the quote is exactly what a run charges. Invalid input is never charged and failed or canceled requests are refunded automatically.

## Input parameters

| Parameter | Canonical name | Type | Required | Default | Allowed values / range | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| `image_data_url` |  | string | yes |  |  | URL d’une archive zip d’images stylistiquement cohérentes ; au moins 10 sont recommandées, et les ensembles plus grands sont préférables. Pour chaque paire d’images, des instructions de retouche peuvent être fournies dans un fichier texte correspondant nommé ROOT.txt, comme photo.txt. Les fichiers texte manquants utilisent default_caption par défaut ; l’entraînement échoue si cette solution de repli est également absente. |
| `steps` |  | integer | no | `1000` | 100 – 10,000 | Nombre total d’étapes d’entraînement. |
| `learning_rate` |  | number | no | `0.0001` |  | Taux d’apprentissage utilisé pour les paramètres entraînables. |
| `default_caption` |  | string \| null | no |  |  | Légende utilisée à la place des fichiers de légende manquants ; None rend leur absence invalide. |
| `training_type` |  | enum (string) | no | `balanced` | `content`, `style`, `balanced` | Orientation de l'entraînement : 'content' met l'accent sur le contenu de l'image, 'style' sur le style de l'image et 'balanced' combine les deux. |

## Example input

Required parameters only:

```json
{
  "image_data_url": "https://content.doitong.com/images/showcase/v3/gen_fox_cartoon.jpg"
}
```

A fuller example:

```json
{
  "image_data_url": "https://content.doitong.com/images/showcase/v3/gen_fox_cartoon.jpg"
}
```

## Run it

Set `DOITONG_API_KEY` to a key from https://doitong.com/developers/dashboard#keys. `?wait=20` returns the finished request in the same call when it is ready within 20 seconds; otherwise poll `GET /requests/{id}` (it also accepts `?wait=`), or pass `webhook_url`.

### curl

```bash
# Run the model; wait up to 20 s for the finished result in the same call
curl -X POST "https://api.doitong.com/v1/run/z-image-trainer?wait=20" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $DOITONG_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "image_data_url": "https://content.doitong.com/images/showcase/v3/gen_fox_cartoon.jpg"
  }'

# Still "queued" or "running"? Poll with the id from the response:
curl "https://api.doitong.com/v1/requests/REQUEST_ID?wait=20" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $DOITONG_API_KEY"
```

### JavaScript

```javascript
const API = "https://api.doitong.com/v1";
const headers = {
  "Authorization": "Bearer " + process.env.DOITONG_API_KEY,
  "Content-Type": "application/json",
};

// Run the model; wait up to 20 s for the finished result in the same call
let res = await fetch(API + "/run/z-image-trainer?wait=20", {
  method: "POST",
  headers,
  body: JSON.stringify({
    "image_data_url": "https://content.doitong.com/images/showcase/v3/gen_fox_cartoon.jpg"
  }),
});
let request = await res.json();
if (!res.ok) throw new Error(request.error.code + ": " + request.error.message);

// Not finished yet: long-poll until it is
while (request.status === "queued" || request.status === "running") {
  res = await fetch(API + "/requests/" + request.id + "?wait=20", { headers });
  request = await res.json();
}
if (request.status !== "succeeded") throw new Error(JSON.stringify(request.error));
console.log(request.outputs.map((o) => o.url), request.cost.credits + " API credits ($" + request.cost.usd + ")");
```

### Python

```python
import os
import requests

API = "https://api.doitong.com/v1"
headers = {"Authorization": "Bearer " + os.environ["DOITONG_API_KEY"]}

payload = {
    "image_data_url": "https://content.doitong.com/images/showcase/v3/gen_fox_cartoon.jpg",
}

# Run the model; wait up to 20 s for the finished result in the same call
r = requests.post(API + "/run/z-image-trainer", params={"wait": 20}, json=payload, headers=headers)
request = r.json()
if not r.ok:
    raise RuntimeError(request["error"]["code"] + ": " + request["error"]["message"])

# Not finished yet: long-poll until it is
while request["status"] in ("queued", "running"):
    request = requests.get(API + "/requests/" + request["id"], params={"wait": 20}, headers=headers).json()
if request["status"] != "succeeded":
    raise RuntimeError(request["error"])
print([o["url"] for o in request["outputs"]], request["cost"]["credits"], "API credits", "$" + request["cost"]["usd"])
```

### MCP

The MCP server at `https://api.doitong.com/v1/mcp` exposes the tools `search_models`, `get_model`, `quote`, `run`, `get_request`, `cancel_request`, `list_requests`, `create_upload` and `get_account`. A `run` call for this model:

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "run",
    "arguments": {
      "model_id": "z-image-trainer",
      "input": {
        "image_data_url": "https://content.doitong.com/images/showcase/v3/gen_fox_cartoon.jpg"
      },
      "wait_seconds": 20
    }
  }
}
```

## Response

Every call returns a request object. `status` is one of `queued`, `running`, `succeeded`, `failed`, `canceled`. `outputs` lists the generated files with URLs on our storage (kept forever, or 7 days with `?storage=temporary`; `storage` says which); `output` is the model's own result object with the same URLs.
