FAQs

What are APIs and SDKs?

APIs are atomic operations that can be performed on any platform, using practically any programming language. They can run on a frontend as well as backend with no limitations. This can be performed one-by-one as well as in batches (e.g. up to 300 requests/operations in a second), can be a small unit in an application or part of a larger workflow, can be triggered programmatically or manually.
The SDK, in contrast, is an experience that can be embedded in web applications and is intended for the end-user’s interaction (w/ GUI). The SDK provides many functions that go far beyond atomic API operations.

APIs are for developers.
SDKs are for end users.

Can I add multiple textures to the same image?
If you want to apply multiple textures to the same image, we recommend you first upload the source image using the Upload method and then use the reference image ID. Otherwise, you can source the image by providing a file or a URL to an online image.

The API allows you to upload any design or photo you have or simply use a text prompt to create a unique pattern using our effortless algorithm. Incorporate our API key or simply copy the code on your app or website, and you are ready to go.

How does the credit payment system work?

Credits are a universal unit that is used to charge for APIs and SDK usage on Picsart. Each developer is given 5 credits for free upon signup. The balance can be refilled, by making a purchase. The more you buy, the bigger discount you get and the more credits are given per US dollar.

When an API call is made, the system checks for the “cost” of that triggered endpoint and charges a corresponding amount. There are endpoints such as /remove-background, that will cost, for example, 8 credits, and there are also endpoints such as /balance or /effects (lists the existing effect names) that will cost 0 credits (utility, helper methods are free of charge).

Similarly, when operations are made in SDK, for example, export is performed, a corresponding number of credits will be charged from the balance.

Is Texture Generator API available in the Editor SDK?

No, Texture Generator API is currently not available in the Editor SDK, but we will be adding it soon!

Do you provide ‘free previews’ for your APIs?

A ‘preview’ is a specific type of API call that gives the users an idea of what the final edit would look like with a smaller image and lower resolution than what the final image will look like.
For certain APIs, e.g. Effects and Masks, there is preview functionality that can be used. Calls made to ‘preview’ APIs are not charged.

What are ORM textures?

ORM stands for Occlusion, Roughness, metallic. It is a modern way to pack PBR materials into fewer files. It is also more efficient to render.
