Accessing a modelAccessing a model

You can access image generation models of in a number of ways.

SDK
API

When operating an image generation model via Yandex Cloud ML SDK, use one of the following formats:

  • Model name, provided as a string.

    model = (
      sdk.models.image_generation("yandex-art")
    )
    
  • Model name and version, provided as strings in the model_name and model_version fields, respectively.

    model = (
      sdk.models.image_generation(model_name="yandex-art", model_version="latest")
    )
    
  • Model URI, provided as a string containing the full URI of the model.

    model = (
      sdk.models.image_generation("art://b1gt6g8ht345********/yandex-art/latest")
    )
    

To access a model via the REST API or gRPC API, specify the model's URI containing the folder ID in the modelUri field of the request body. The /latest segment indicates the model version and is optional.

Example:

{
  "modelUri": "art://b1gt6g8ht345********/yandex-art/latest"
  ...
}

To access the Latest version, you do not need to specify the model version explicitly because Latest is used by default.
