Basic Image Generation (Python)
python
from google import genaifrom google.genai import typesclient = genai.Client(api_key="YOUR_GEMINI_API_KEY")response = client.models.generate_content(model="gemini-3-pro-image-preview",contents="A serene Japanese garden with cherry blossoms and a koi pond",config=types.GenerateContentConfig(response_modalities=['TEXT', 'IMAGE']))# Process responsefor part in response.candidates[0].content.parts:if hasattr(part, 'text'):print(f"Description: {part.text}")elif hasattr(part, 'inline_data'):# Save imageimage_data = part.inline_data.data # Base64 encodedmime_type = part.inline_data.mime_type # image/pngimport base64with open("output.png", "wb") as f:f.write(base64.b64decode(image_data))
REST API (cURL)
bash
curl -s -X POST \"https://generativelanguage.googleapis.com/v1beta/models/gemini-3-pro-image-preview:generateContent" \-H "x-goog-api-key: $GEMINI_API_KEY" \-H "Content-Type: application/json" \-d '{"contents": [{"role": "user","parts": [{"text": "Create a vibrant infographic about photosynthesis"}]}],"generationConfig": {"responseModalities": ["TEXT", "IMAGE"]}}'
TypeScript/JavaScript
typescript
const GEMINI_API_KEY = process.env.GEMINI_API_KEY;async function generateImage(prompt: string) {const response = await fetch('https://generativelanguage.googleapis.com/v1beta/models/gemini-3-pro-image-preview:generateContent',{method: 'POST',headers: {'x-goog-api-key': GEMINI_API_KEY!,'Content-Type': 'application/json',},body: JSON.stringify({contents: [{role: 'user',parts: [{ text: prompt }]}],generationConfig: {responseModalities: ['TEXT', 'IMAGE'],},}),});const data = await response.json();return data;}
Configuration Options
Image Configuration
python
response = client.models.generate_content(model="gemini-3-pro-image-preview",contents="Professional product photo of a coffee mug",config=types.GenerateContentConfig(response_modalities=['TEXT', 'IMAGE'],image_config=types.ImageConfig(aspect_ratio="16:9", # Options: 1:1, 3:2, 16:9, 9:16, 21:9image_size="2K" # Options: 1K, 2K, 4K)))
With Google Search Grounding
python
response = client.models.generate_content(model="gemini-3-pro-image-preview",contents="Create an infographic showing today's stock market trends",config=types.GenerateContentConfig(response_modalities=['TEXT', 'IMAGE'],tools=[{"google_search": {}}] # Enable search grounding))
Multi-Turn Conversations (Iterative Editing)
python
# Create a chat sessionchat = client.chats.create(model="gemini-3-pro-image-preview",config=types.GenerateContentConfig(response_modalities=['TEXT', 'IMAGE'],tools=[{"google_search": {}}]))# Initial generationresponse1 = chat.send_message("Create a vibrant infographic explaining photosynthesis")# Edit the imageresponse2 = chat.send_message("Update this infographic to be in Spanish. Keep all other elements the same.")
Key Capabilities
1. Superior Text Rendering

response = client.models.generate_content(model="gemini-3-pro-image-preview",contents="""Create a professional poster with:- Title: "Annual Tech Summit 2025"- Date: March 15-17, 2025- Location: San Francisco Convention Center""",config=types.GenerateContentConfig(response_modalities=['TEXT', 'IMAGE']))
2. Character Consistency (Up to 5 Subjects)
python
import base64def load_image(path: str) -> str:with open(path, "rb") as f:return base64.b64encode(f.read()).decode()character_ref = load_image("character.png")response = client.models.generate_content(model="gemini-3-pro-image-preview",contents=[{"text": "Generate an image of this person at a tech conference"},{"inline_data": {"mime_type": "image/png", "data": character_ref}}],config=types.GenerateContentConfig(response_modalities=['TEXT', 'IMAGE']))
Next.js API Route
typescript
// app/api/generate-image/route.tsimport { NextRequest, NextResponse } from 'next/server';export async function POST(request: NextRequest) {const { prompt, aspectRatio = '1:1', imageSize = '2K' } = await request.json();try {const response = await fetch('https://generativelanguage.googleapis.com/v1beta/models/gemini-3-pro-image-preview:generateContent',{method: 'POST',headers: {'x-goog-api-key': process.env.GEMINI_API_KEY!,'Content-Type': 'application/json',},body: JSON.stringify({contents: [{ role: 'user', parts: [{ text: prompt }] }],generationConfig: {responseModalities: ['TEXT', 'IMAGE'],imageConfig: { aspectRatio, imageSize },},}),});const data = await response.json();const parts = data.candidates?.[0]?.content?.parts || [];const imagePart = parts.find((p: any) => p.inline_data);return NextResponse.json({image: imagePart ? {data: imagePart.inline_data.data,mimeType: imagePart.inline_data.mime_type,url: `data:${imagePart.inline_data.mime_type};base64,${imagePart.inline_data.data}`,} : null,});} catch (error) {return NextResponse.json({ error: 'Generation failed' }, { status: 500 });}}
