Install the SDK
TypeScript targets Node 20+ and ships with types; Python needs 3.10+ and is async. Over REST there is nothing to install: call https://api.picsart.com from any HTTP client.
npm install @picsart/ai-sdkpip install picsart-ai-sdkAuthenticate
Send your Picsart API key as a bearer token. The SDK does it for you once the client is created.
import { createClient } from '@picsart/ai-sdk';
const ai = createClient({
apiKey: process.env.PICSART_API_KEY, // sent as: Authorization: Bearer <key>
apiUrl: 'https://api.picsart.com',
});import os
from picsart_ai_sdk import create_client
ai = create_client(
api_key=os.environ["PICSART_API_KEY"], # sent as: Authorization: Bearer <key>
api_url="https://api.picsart.com",
)Authorization: Bearer <PICSART_API_KEY>Make a request
Call the model by its id. Over REST, one endpoint serves every model: POST /workflows/v1/models/execute with the model id and its input in the body. The outer params is the envelope every workflow takes; the inner one is this model's input, with the same names generate() takes.
import { createClient } from '@picsart/ai-sdk';
const ai = createClient({
apiKey: process.env.PICSART_API_KEY,
apiUrl: 'https://api.picsart.com',
});
const result = await ai.generate('minimax-music-v2', {
prompt: "A serene mountain lake at golden hour, ultra detailed"
});

This model can run longer than the sync limit (~20s). generate() waits for you; to hold on to the job instead, submit it and poll. Over REST, send it to /workflows/v1/models/submit and poll /workflows/v1/models/{taskId}/result until response.status is COMPLETED or FAILED.

7 parameters, the same for the SDK and for the inner params over REST. Required ones must be supplied; the rest fall back to their defaults.

promptThe text to speak. For music and sound effects, what to make, in plain language. | text | yes | — | max 2000 chars · e.g. "Describe the genre, mood, instruments, tempo, and production style..." |
lyricsPromptLyrics for the song. | text | no | — | max 3500 chars · e.g. "Write lyrics, or describe the lyrical theme. Optional for instrumental or optimizer-generated lyrics." |
lyricsOptimizerLyrics Optimizer | boolean | no | false | — |
isInstrumentalMusic without vocals. | boolean | no | false | — |
sampleRateSample rate of the audio, in Hz. | enum | no | 44100 | 16000, 24000, 32000, 44100 |
bitrateBitrate of the audio, in bits per second. | enum | no | 256000 | 32000, 64000, 128000, 256000 |
formatFile format of the result. | enum | no | mp3 | mp3, wav, pcm |
Response
generate() resolves once the job completes. An audio URL. Over REST the output is at response.result, inside the gateway's status envelope with the task id, its status and the amount charged.

}Overview
Alongside the unified model APIs, we expose compatibility APIs that take each vendor's original parameters exactly as the vendor defines them — nothing renamed, nothing reshaped on the way through.
That makes them the shortest path onto Picsart if you already work with the vendor directly: the request bodies you've already written keep working as they are. You keep their parameter names and defaults, and you get the vendor's full parameter set rather than the subset that is shared across every model.
The cost is that a request is written for one vendor — switching models later means rewriting it, and results come back in the vendor's own shape. When you'd rather write once and change models freely, use the unified API.
Make a request
Call the workflow with ai.apis.run() in TypeScript or Python, or hit /workflows/{workflow}/execute directly — params is passed through untouched either way.
These endpoints are addressed by workflow name rather than model id: the one in this model's header, since one model runs as one workflow. Authentication is unchanged — your Picsart API key as a bearer token (see Authentication).

const ai = createClient({

apiUrl: 'https://api.picsart.com',

Response
Over HTTP the output arrives inside a status envelope, at response.result. ai.apis.run() unwraps that envelope for you and resolves to { result, usage } instead. Either way the result itself is the vendor's own shape.
