Creates an image task and returns its id. Nothing in the response is an image
yet. Wait for the task by polling or with a
webhook, or let the SDK's image.generate() wait
for you.
Always pass model. When it is omitted, the API uses auto, which is
experimental. See the model field.
Generate images covers sizes and the result.

accessobjectControls whether the create-task response should include a short-lived Public Access Token.
That token can be passed to browser or client-side code for polling task status and task images without exposing your API key.

access.pat.enabledis true.publicAccessTokenstringrequiredShort-lived Public Access Token for polling task status and image results.
This token is safe to return to frontend code and can be used instead of your API key for polling public task state.
e.g. "pat_eyJhbGciOi..."
Errors#
A failed call names what went wrong in code, with a sentence in message. The codes, which of them are worth retrying, and how to read a validation failure are on Errors.
