# Image generation

> Generate an image directly from a prompt using the standalone Images API.

Call the Images API when your application already has the image prompt. To let a model generate an image during an interaction, use [image generation through Responses](/docs/image-generation).

See the Responses guide for [image models](/docs/image-generation#image-generation-models), and the [API reference](/api-reference/images/generate-images-from-text-descriptions) for endpoint details.
