}Upscale an image with Clarity Upscaler
Clarity Upscaler — creative AI upscaling that can add detail as it enlarges, steered by creativity/resemblance controls and an optional guiding prompt. 30 credits per image (typically ~60 seconds).
Asynchronous. Returns a job id (the image is not in this response). Poll GET /v1/upscales/{id} until status is succeeded — the image URL is in that response’s image_url.

}Authorizations
API key as a bearer token: Authorization: Bearer bpx_live_xxx
Body
Image to upscale. A public image URL, a data URI, raw base64, or an uploaded-file URL from POST /v1/uploads.
How much new detail the model may invent (0.3-0.9 recommended).
HDR effect strength (3-9 for best results).
Optional guiding prompt describing the image content — helps the model invent plausible detail.
How closely the result must match the input (0-3).
Upscale factor (2 or 4).
Seed for reproducible results. Omit for random.
Response
Job accepted.
