Enhance the resolution and quality of your images using Runware's advanced upscaling API. Transform low-resolution images into sharp, high-definition visuals. Upscaling refers to the process of enhancing the resolution and overall quality of images. This technique is particularly useful for improving the visual clarity and detail of lower-resolution images, making them suitable for various high-definition applications.
To upscale an image, send a request in the following format:
[
{
"taskType": "imageUpscale",
"taskUUID": "19abad0d-6ec5-40a6-b7af-203775fa5b7f",
"inputImage": "fd613011-3872-4f37-b4aa-0d343c051a27",
"outputType": "URL",
"outputFormat": "JPG",
"upscaleFactor": 2
}
]| Parameter | Type | Description |

| taskType | string | Must be set to "imageUpscale" for this operation. |
| taskUUID | UUIDv4 string | Unique identifier for the task, used to match async responses. |
| inputImage | UUIDv4 string | The UUID of the image to be upscaled. Can be from a previously uploaded or generated image. |
