# Meshy 6 · Image to 3D API

> Meshy 6 Bild-zu-3D mat Remeshing, PBR-Kaarten, optionalem humanoidem Rigging an Animatioun

Baut aus engem Bild (`image_url`) en 3D-Modell. `model_type` ass standard, lowpoly oder smart-topology, d'Topologie ass triangle oder quad, an `target_polycount` leeft vun 100 bis 300000 (Smart-Topology maximal 15,000). Optiounen ëmfaassen Texturéierung, PBR-Kaarten, Symmetrie, A- oder T-Pose an humanoidt Rigging mat engem Animatiounspreset. D'Ausgab enthält GLB- a FBX-Dateien.

- Made by: Meshy
- Category: Image to 3D
- Output: 3d
- Price per run: from $0.80 / run (cheapest run $0.80 (800 API credits))
- Run: `POST https://api.doitong.com/v1/run/meshy/v6/image-to-3d`

- Docs page: https://doitong.com/lb/developers/models/meshy/v6/image-to-3d

## Pricing

Price: **from $0.80 / run** (the lowest tier; the quote prices your exact input). Price per run: the input files are measured before the run (length, resolution, frame rate). The quote measures the same files and is exactly what the run charges.

The full example input below costs $1.20 = 1200 API credits (1 run × $1.20).

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/meshy/v6/image-to-3d` 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

Send either the canonical name or the native field name (not both). Canonical names are the same across models.

| Parameter | Canonical name | Type | Required | Default | Allowed values / range | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| `image_url` | `image` | string (image URL) | yes |  |  | Quellbild fir d'3D-Kreatioun per URL oder base64-Daten-URI, mat .jpg, .jpeg, .png, AVIF oder HEIF. AVIF- an HEIF-Input ginn automatesch ëmgewandelt. |
| `model_type` |  | enum (string) | no | `standard` | `standard`, `lowpoly`, `smart-topology` | 3D-Mesh-Modus: wielt 'lowpoly' fir e Low-Poly-Resultat mat méi propperen Polygonen; an dësem Modus ignoréiert Meshy topology, target_polycount a should_remesh. Fir e konventionellt héich detailléiert Resultat wielt 'standard', oder 'smart-topology' fir Meshy-T2 ze benotzen an direkt separat generéiert propper Deeler ze kréien. |
| `topology` |  | enum (string) | no | `triangle` | `quad`, `triangle` | Auswiel vun der Modelltopologie tëscht Triangle fir geometreschen Detail an Quad fir glat Uewerflächen. |
| `target_polycount` |  | integer | no | `30000` | 100 – 300,000 | Zilzuel vu Polygonen, begrenzt op 15,000 wann model_type 'smart-topology' ass. Wann d'Zil an dësem Modus ewechgelooss gëtt, gëtt Meshy säin nidderege Standard vun 4,000 benotzt. |
| `symmetry_mode` |  | enum (string) | no | `auto` | `off`, `auto`, `on` | Wielt, ob d'Modellgeneratioun d'Symmetrie mat On erzwingt, se mat Off ewechléisst oder mat Auto automatesch entscheet. |
| `should_remesh` |  | boolean | no | `true` |  | Aktivéiert oder deaktivéiert d'Remeshing-Phase. |
| `should_texture` |  | boolean | no | `true` |  | Aktivéiert oder deaktivéiert d'Texturgeneratioun. |
| `enable_pbr` |  | boolean | no | `false` |  | Füügt PBR-Maps fir metallesch, rau an normal nieft der Basisfaarf dobäi. |
| `is_a_t_pose` |  | boolean | no | `false` |  | T-Pose-Generatiounsschalter, aktivéiert mat true; ofgeschaaft zugonschte vu pose_mode. |
| `pose_mode` |  | enum (string) | no | `` | `a-pose`, `t-pose`, `` | Loosst de String eidel, fir d'Pose vum generéierte Modell net unzeginn, oder frot eng A-Pose mat 'a-pose' respektiv eng T-Pose mat 't-pose' un. |
| `texture_prompt` |  | string \| null | no |  | ≤ 600 characters | Textinstruktiounen, déi d'Texturgeneratioun steieren. |
| `texture_image_url` |  | string (image URL) \| null | no |  |  | 2D-Referenzbild, dat d'Texturgeneratioun steiert. |
| `enable_rigging` |  | boolean | no | `false` |  | Automatescht humanoidt Rigging, am effektivste fir humanoid Modeller mat kloer ënnerscheedbare Glidder. D'Aktivéierung riggt de generéierte Modell a liwwert Basis-Animatioune fir Goe a Lafen. |
| `rigging_height_meters` |  | number | no | `1.7` | > 0 | Gitt eng geschätzte Charakterhéicht a Meter un, wann enable_rigging true ass; soss huet dëse Wäert keen Effekt. |
| `enable_animation` |  | boolean | no | `false` |  | Ob de geriggte Modell eng Preset-Animatioun kritt; dofir muss enable_rigging true sinn. |
| `animation_action_id` |  | integer | no | `92` |  | ID vun enger Animatioun aus der Meshy-Bibliothéik; verfügbar Aktiounen stinn op https://docs.meshy.ai/en/api/animation-library. Validatioun a Gebrauch gëllen nëmme wann enable_animation true ass: Wäerter ausserhalb [0, 696] ginn mat engem 422 zeréckgewisen, an "Idle" entsprécht `0`. |
| `enable_safety_checker` |  | boolean | no | `true` |  | Sécherheetskontroll virun der Veraarbechtung: true mécht eng Input-Sécherheetskontroll zur Viraussetzung fir d'Veraarbechtung. |

File parameters (`image`, `texture_image_url`) take a public `https://` URL, a `data:` URI up to 10 MB, or the `file_url` of an upload from `POST /files`.

## Example input

Required parameters only:

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

A fuller example:

}
```

## 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/meshy/v6/image-to-3d?wait=20" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $DOITONG_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "image_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/meshy/v6/image-to-3d?wait=20", {
  method: "POST",
  headers,
  body: JSON.stringify({
    "image_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_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/meshy/v6/image-to-3d", 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": "meshy/v6/image-to-3d",
      "input": {
        "image_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.
