Text and image

Available in Classic and VPC

This guide describes Chat Completions v3, which can use the HCX-005 vision model that can interpret and understand images, and the lightweight HCX-DASH-002 model.

Request

This section describes the request format. The method and URI are as follows:

Method	URI
POST	/v3/chat-completions/{modelName} Generate sentences using the model. /v3/tasks/{taskId}/chat-completions Generate sentences using tuning trained jobs. No support for image input, inference, function calling, or structured outputs.

Request headers

For information about the headers common to all CLOVA Studio APIs, see CLOVA Studio request headers.

Request path parameters

You can use the following path parameters with your request:

Field	Type	Required	Description
`modelName`	Enum	Required	Model name Example: `HCX-005`
`taskId`	String	Conditional	Training ID When using tuning trained job to generate sentences See Create training.

Note

HCX-005 and HCX-DASH-002 are only available in the Chat Completions v3 API.
Image input is only available in HCX-005, the HyperCLOVA X vision model, and tuning training is not supported.

Request body

You can include the following data in the body of your request:

Field	Type	Required	Description
`messages`	Array	Required	Conversation messages: messages

`topK`	Integer	Optional	Sample K high-probability candidates from the pool of generated token candidates. 0 ≤ `topK` ≤ 128 (default: 0)
`maxTokens`	Integer	Optional	Maximum number of generated tokens 1 ≤ `maxTokens` ≤ model maximum value Can't be used concurrently with `maxCompletionTokens`.
`maxCompletionTokens`	Integer	Optional	Maximum number of generated tokens (inference model) 1 ≤ `maxCompletionTokens` ≤ model maximum value Can't be used concurrently with `maxTokens`.

`repetitionPenalty`	Double	Optional	Degree of penalty for generating the same token 0.0 ＜ `repetitionPenalty` ≤ 2.0 (default: 1.1) The higher the setting, the less likely it is to generate the same result repeatedly. We recommend fine-tuning in increments of 0.05 between 1.0 and 1.1.
`stop`	Array	Optional	Token generation stop character [] (default) Can't be used for inference.
`seed`	Integer	Optional	Adjust consistency level of output on model iterations. 0: Randomize consistency level (default). 1 ≤ `seed` ≤ 4294967295: `seed` value of result value you want to generate consistently, or a user-specified `seed` value

The following describes content.

Field	Type	Required	Description
`type`	Enum	Required	Format of conversation message content `text` \| `image_url` `text` : Text `image_url` : Image URL
`text`	String	Conditional	Conversation message content Enter text. Required if `type` is `text`.
`imageUrl`	Object	Conditional	Image list If `type` is `image_url`, `imageUrl` or `dataUri` must be entered. One image per turn can be included. Recommended to request with `text` for best results.

The shorter side must be 4 px or more.
`dataUri`	Object	Conditional	Image list If `type` is `image_url`, `imageUrl` or `dataUri` must be entered. One image per turn can be included. Recommended to request with `text` for best results.
`dataUri.data`	String	Conditional	Base64-encoded image string Supported image specifications Format: BMP, PNG, JPG, JPEG, WEBP Size: Between 0 byte and 20 MB Ratio: Horizontal and vertical dimensions of 1:5 or 5:1 or less Length: The longer side (horizontal or vertical) must be 2240 px or less.

Note

When entering some fields, check the following:

role: You can only include one Conversation message that is system per request.
HCX-005
- The sum of the input tokens and the output tokens cannot exceed 128,000 tokens.
- The input tokens can be up to 128,000 tokens.
- The output tokens (maxTokens) to be requested from the model can be up to 4096 tokens.
- messages: One image can be included per turn, and up to five images can be included per request.
  - The total request body size must be 50 MB or less. Therefore, if you want to include multiple images in a request, we recommend using image URLs rather than Base64 format.
HCX-DASH-002
- The sum of the input tokens and the output tokens cannot exceed 32000 tokens.
- The input tokens can be up to 32000 tokens.
- The output tokens (maxTokens) to be requested from the model can be up to 4096 tokens.
