# Runs

## Start a generation run

**post** `/runs/generation`

Starts a model generation run in a project canvas using type, prompt, workspace_id, project_id, optional model endpoint ID, and optional model parameters. Use type=image|video|audio|text and model IDs returned by GET /models or list_models. Mutating public API requests support an optional Idempotency-Key header for client retries; duplicate keys within two hours return idempotency_duplicate.

### Body Parameters

- `project_id: string`

  Project identifier. Use the public API ID returned by list projects; it must start with prj_.

- `prompt: string`

  Generation prompt

- `type: "image" or "video" or "audio" or "text"`

  Generation type. Use "image", "video", "audio", or "text"; do not pass model families such as "t2i" or "i2v".

  - `"image"`

  - `"video"`

  - `"audio"`

  - `"text"`

- `workspace_id: string`

  Workspace identifier. Use the public API ID returned by list workspaces; it must start with ws_.

- `model: optional string`

  Model endpoint ID, not a display name. Use list_models (or GET /models) to find accessible endpoint IDs for the requested type.

- `params: optional map[unknown]`

  Model parameters
