Recraft v3Install

Overview

The "Crisp Upscale" operation of the Recraft v3 node enhances the resolution of an input image using a crisp upscaling AI model. This operation is useful when you want to improve the clarity and detail of images without losing quality, such as enhancing photos, artwork, or graphics for printing, presentations, or further editing.

Practical examples include:

• Upscaling low-resolution product images for e-commerce listings.
• Enhancing digital artwork details before publishing.
• Improving photo quality for social media posts or marketing materials.

Properties

Output

The output contains a JSON field with the result of the upscaling operation. Depending on the selected response format, the output will be either:

• A URL string linking to the upscaled image.
• A base64 encoded JSON string representing the upscaled image data.

This allows flexible usage depending on whether you want to download the image from a URL or process it directly in base64 form.

Dependencies

• Requires an API key credential for the Recraft v3 service.
• The node makes HTTP POST requests to the Recraft API endpoint /images/crispUpscale.
• The input image must be provided as binary data within the workflow (e.g., from a previous node).

Troubleshooting

• Invalid or missing input image: Ensure the binary property specified in "Input Image" exists and contains valid image data.
• API authentication errors: Verify that the API key credential is correctly configured and has sufficient permissions.
• Unsupported response format: Choose either "URL" or "Base64 JSON" for the response format; other values are not supported.
• Large image files: Very large images might cause timeouts or memory issues; consider resizing before upscaling if problems occur.
