Image Generation

Image Generation lets you create images from a text prompt directly inside the Media Library. Generated images are added to the workspace's media, ready to attach to posts.

Generating an Image​

  1. Open the Media Library (or the media picker when creating a post).
  2. In the upload area, click AI.
  3. Enter a prompt describing the image you want.
  4. Click Generate.

Generation runs in the background and can take up to a couple of minutes. When it finishes, the image is added to the workspace's media library and selected automatically.

note

Because generation runs as a background job, the image is saved to the media library even if you close the panel while it's still working — it simply won't be auto-selected in that session. You'll find it in the library afterwards.

If the AI button isn't there​

Image generation is switched on for the whole instance rather than per workspace, so it is not something you can enable yourself. On a self-hosted instance, ask your administrator to turn it on — the steps are in AI Settings. On Mixpost Cloud, contact support.

The same applies if generation keeps failing: the cause is on the instance side, not in your workspace.
