Create a prediction

POST https://api.replicate.com/v1/predictions

Start a new prediction for the model version and inputs you provide.

Example request body:

{
  "version": "5c7d5dc6dd8bf75c1acaa8565735e7986bc5b66206b55cca93cb72c9bf15ccaa",
  "input": {
    "text": "Alice"
  }
}

Example cURL request:

curl -s -X POST \
  -d '{"version": "5c7d5dc6dd8bf75c1acaa8565735e7986bc5b66206b55cca93cb72c9bf15ccaa", "input": {"text": "Alice"}}' \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer <paste-your-token-here>" \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  https://api.replicate.com/v1/predictions

The response will be the prediction object:

{
  "id": "gm3qorzdhgbfurvjtvhg6dckhu",
  "model": "replicate/hello-world",
  "version": "5c7d5dc6dd8bf75c1acaa8565735e7986bc5b66206b55cca93cb72c9bf15ccaa",
  "input": {
    "text": "Alice"
  },
  "logs": "",
  "error": null,
  "status": "starting",
  "created_at": "2023-09-08T16:19:34.765994657Z",
  "urls": {
    "cancel": "https://api.replicate.com/v1/predictions/gm3qorzdhgbfurvjtvhg6dckhu/cancel",
    "get": "https://api.replicate.com/v1/predictions/gm3qorzdhgbfurvjtvhg6dckhu"
  }
}

As models can take several seconds or more to run, the output will not be available immediately. To get the final result of the prediction you should either provide a webhook HTTPS URL for us to call when the results are ready, or poll the get a prediction endpoint until it has finished.

Input and output (including any files) will be automatically deleted after an hour, so you must save a copy of any files in the output if you’d like to continue using them.

Output files are served by replicate.delivery and its subdomains. If you use an allow list of external domains for your assets, add replicate.delivery and *.replicate.delivery to it.

Request body

input (required)

The model’s input as a JSON object. The input schema depends on what model you are running. To see the available inputs, click the “API” tab on the model you are running or get the model version and look at its openapi_schema property. For example, stability-ai/sdxl takes prompt as an input.

Files should be passed as HTTP URLs or data URLs.

Use an HTTP URL when:

  • you have a large file > 256kb
  • you want to be able to use the file multiple times
  • you want your prediction metadata to be associable with your input files

Use a data URL when:

  • you have a small file <= 256kb
  • you don’t want to upload and host the file somewhere
  • you don’t need to use the file again (Replicate will not store it)
version (required)

The ID of the model version that you want to run.

stream

Request a URL to receive streaming output using server-sent events (SSE).

If the requested model version supports streaming, the returned prediction will have a stream entry in its urls property with an HTTPS URL that you can use to construct an EventSource.

webhook

An HTTPS URL for receiving a webhook when the prediction has new output. The webhook will be a POST request where the request body is the same as the response body of the get prediction operation. If there are network problems, we will retry the webhook a few times, so make sure it can be safely called more than once.

webhook_events_filter

By default, we will send requests to your webhook URL whenever there are new outputs or the prediction has finished. You can change which events trigger webhook requests by specifying webhook_events_filter in the prediction request:

  • start: immediately on prediction start
  • output: each time a prediction generates an output (note that predictions can generate multiple outputs)
  • logs: each time log output is generated by a prediction
  • completed: when the prediction reaches a terminal state (succeeded/canceled/failed)

For example, if you only wanted requests to be sent at the start and end of the prediction, you would provide:

{
  "version": "5c7d5dc6dd8bf75c1acaa8565735e7986bc5b66206b55cca93cb72c9bf15ccaa",
  "input": {
    "text": "Alice"
  },
  "webhook": "https://example.com/my-webhook",
  "webhook_events_filter": ["start", "completed"]
}

Requests for event types output and logs will be sent at most once every 500ms. If you request start and completed webhooks, then they’ll always be sent regardless of throttling.

Get a prediction

GET https://api.replicate.com/v1/predictions/{prediction_id}

Get the current state of a prediction.

Example cURL request:

curl -s \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer <paste-your-token-here>" \
  https://api.replicate.com/v1/predictions/gm3qorzdhgbfurvjtvhg6dckhu

The response will be the prediction object:

{
  "id": "gm3qorzdhgbfurvjtvhg6dckhu",
  "model": "replicate/hello-world",
  "version": "5c7d5dc6dd8bf75c1acaa8565735e7986bc5b66206b55cca93cb72c9bf15ccaa",
  "input": {
    "text": "Alice"
  },
  "logs": "",
  "output": "hello Alice",
  "error": null,
  "status": "succeeded",
  "created_at": "2023-09-08T16:19:34.765994Z",
  "started_at": "2023-09-08T16:19:34.779176Z",
  "completed_at": "2023-09-08T16:19:34.791859Z",
  "metrics": {
    "predict_time": 0.012683
  },
  "urls": {
    "cancel": "https://api.replicate.com/v1/predictions/gm3qorzdhgbfurvjtvhg6dckhu/cancel",
    "get": "https://api.replicate.com/v1/predictions/gm3qorzdhgbfurvjtvhg6dckhu"
  }
}

status will be one of:

  • starting: the prediction is starting up. If this status lasts longer than a few seconds, then it’s typically because a new worker is being started to run the prediction.
  • processing: the predict() method of the model is currently running.
  • succeeded: the prediction completed successfully.
  • failed: the prediction encountered an error during processing.
  • canceled: the prediction was canceled by its creator.

In the case of success, output will be an object containing the output of the model. Any files will be represented as HTTPS URLs. You’ll need to pass the Authorization header to request them.

In the case of failure, error will contain the error encountered during the prediction.

Terminated predictions (with a status of succeeded, failed, or canceled) will include a metrics object with a predict_time property showing the amount of CPU or GPU time, in seconds, that the prediction used while running. It won’t include time waiting for the prediction to start.

Input and output (including any files) are automatically deleted after an hour, so you must save a copy of any files in the output if you’d like to continue using them.

Output files are served by replicate.delivery and its subdomains. If you use an allow list of external domains for your assets, add replicate.delivery and *.replicate.delivery to it.

}

As models can take several minutes or more to train, the result will not be available immediately. To get the final result of the training you should either provide a webhook HTTPS URL for us to call when the results are ready, or poll the get a training endpoint until it has finished.

When a training completes, it creates a new version of the model at the specified destination.

To find some models to train on, check out the trainable language models collection.

model_name (required)

The name of the model.

version_id (required)

Request body

destination

webhook

An HTTPS URL for receiving a webhook when the training completes. The webhook will be a POST request where the request body is the same as the response body of the get training operation.
