How to Use Dall-e API

Step 1: Create an Account

Generate your API key from the dashboard. Keep it secure and never expose it in client-side code.

Step 3: Install SDK (Optional)

npm install hypereal
# or
pip install hypereal

Step 4: Make Your First API Call

const response = await fetch('https://api.hypereal.com/v1/dall-e', {
  method: 'POST',
  headers: {
    'Authorization': 'Bearer YOUR_API_KEY',
    'Content-Type': 'application/json'
  },
  body: JSON.stringify({
    prompt: 'Your prompt here'
  })
});

const result = await response.json();
console.log(result);

Step 5: Handle the Response

if (result.status === 'success') {
  console.log('Output:', result.output);
} else {
  console.error('Error:', result.error);
}

Best Practices

  1. Cache responses - Reduce redundant API calls
  2. Use webhooks - For long-running tasks, use webhooks instead of polling
  3. Implement retry logic - Handle rate limits with exponential backoff
  4. Validate inputs - Check user inputs before sending to API
  5. Monitor usage - Set up alerts for unexpected spikes
