Workflow overview
Why this workflow matters
Relevant for managed services and support workflows.
This template integrates OpenAI's image generation and editing endpoints via the GPT-Image-1 model to visually create and manipulate images based on prompts. It features base64 conversion, binary handling, and prompt chaining. Perfect for marketing, design, product visuals and creative workflows. ๐ ๏ธ Requirements OpenAI account with access to gpt-image-1(probably you need organizations verifications for access to that model) OpenAI API credentials configured in AlekSystem A self-hosted or cloud AlekSystem instance Basic familiarity with the AlekSystem UI (no programming required) ๐ง Step-by-step Instructions Step 1: Manual Trigger Starts the workflow on click. Ideal for testing the generation and edit logic. Step 2: Generate Image The Create image call node sends a prompt to OpenAI and returns a base64 image. Example prompt: A cyberpunk city at night with flying cars and neon lights Step 3: Convert to Binary The base64 image is converted into a usable binary PNG file with the Convert json binary to File node. Step 4: Edit the Image The binary file is passed to OpenAIโs /images/edits endpoint. A new prompt applies changes to the image. Example: Add a glowing robot in the foreground with a neon sword โ Supports model: gpt-image-1 โ ๏ธ Requires binary file (not base64) Step 5: Final Conversion Converts the final edited image from base64 to file so it can be downloaded or used in other nodes. ๐ฏ Real-World Use Cases ๐จ Artists & Creators: concept art and illustration variations ๐๏ธ E-commerce: auto-generate product mockups ๐ฐ Marketing: create eye-catching blog or social visuals ๐ก Bonus Ideas Add a Telegram or Slack node to generate or edit images via chat Use a Webhook to feed prompts from a form or frontend Add a mask to restrict edits to specific areas (e.g., background only)
