Create Images Automatically with the AI Image Generation Action

The AI Image Generation action turns a text prompt into a finished picture inside your workflow. The image is saved to your Media Storage at a public link, so later steps can attach it to emails, texts or social posts. It is a premium action, billed per execution.

Settings at a glance

  • Model: choose from the available image models; each has a different look and different strengths with text, realism and composition.
  • Quality: Auto, High, Medium or Low. Higher quality takes longer.
  • Prompt: your description. Insert custom values to make each contact or record produce a unique picture.
  • Templates: four starting prompts: Product Mockups, Social Post, Promo Flyer and Lifestyle.
  • Reference images: up to five images for visual context, added by upload, from the media library, or by URL.
  • Additional Settings: size, background, output format, plus your Design Kit and Brand Voice to keep results on-brand.

Build it

  1. Add AI Image Generation from AI Actions and name it clearly.
  2. Select a model and quality.
  3. Write your prompt, covering subject, style, setting, lighting and composition. Or pick a template and edit it.
  4. Click Enhance Prompt to have AI expand a rough idea; review and adjust the result.
  5. Add reference images if you want a specific look.
  6. Open Additional Settings to set size and brand options.
  7. Save the action.

Use the generated image

The action outputs the image URL as a variable. Insert it as an email image, an MMS attachment, a social post image, or pass it to another system through a webhook. You can also feed it to AI Analyze Image to check the result.

Ideas

  • Personalized promo graphics for each segment.
  • Social images generated from a product name in a form.
  • Birthday or milestone cards.

Tips

  • Try the same prompt on two models and compare.
  • Be specific; vague prompts give generic pictures.
  • Generated images are stored automatically, so clean up your media library periodically.

Good to know: Use the Design Kit option when consistency matters, such as customer-facing campaigns.
