1.1 Workflow description

Title
Configure your own image creation API using OpenAI DALLE-3
Workflow name
Configure your own image creation API using OpenAI DALLE-3

How it works: Webhook URL that responds to Requests with an AI generated Image based on the prompt provided in the URL.

Setup Steps:

  • Ideate your prompt
  • URL Encode The Prompt (as shown in the Template)
  • Authenticate with your OpenAI Credentials
  • Put together the Webhook URL with your prompt and enter into a webbrowser

In this way you can expose a public url to users, employee's etc. without exposing your OpenAI API Key to them.
