Tencent Hunyuan 3D

Tencent Hunyuan 3D API reference. Generate production-ready 3D models with Pro and Rapid editions. Text-to-3D, image-to-3D, multi-view input with GLB output and optional PBR textures.

Pro Edition

POST

/v1/3d-models/tencent/generate/pro/

High-quality 3D generation with advanced controls. Supports text-to-3D, image-to-3D, multi-view image input, and multiple generation types. Base cost is 60 credits (+20 for PBR, +20 for multi-view).

Pro Edition Parameters

Parameter	Type	Required	Description
model	string	Yes	Model version: "3.0" or "3.1".
prompt	string	Conditional	Text description (max 1024 chars). Required if no image provided.
image	string	Conditional	Base64-encoded image (data:image/...;base64,...). Required if no prompt.
enable_pbr	boolean	No	Enable PBR textures. Default: false. Adds 20 credits.
face_count	integer	No	Target polygon count (40,000 to 1,500,000). Default: 500,000.
generate_type	string	No	Generation mode (see table below). Default: "Normal". LowPoly and Sketch are not available on model 3.1.
polygon_type	string	No	"triangle" or "quadrilateral". Only used with LowPoly. Default: "triangle".
multi_view_images	array	No	Array of multi-view images. Must include a "front" view. Adds 20 credits.

Generation Types

The generate_type parameter controls what kind of output the model produces.

Type	Description
Normal	Standard generation. Produces a textured 3D model with full geometry and materials.
LowPoly	Generates a model with intelligent polygon reduction applied. Use polygon_type to choose between triangle or quadrilateral topology. Not available on model 3.1.
Geometry	Generates a geometry only model without any textures (white model). The enable_pbr parameter has no effect in this mode.
Sketch	Generates a model from a sketch or line drawing input. This is the only mode where both a prompt and an image can be provided together. Not available on model 3.1.

Multi-View Images

For Pro edition, you can provide multiple reference images from different angles. Each entry has a view_type and a base64-encoded view_image. A "front" view is always required. Model 3.0 supports: front, left, right, back. Model 3.1 adds: top, bottom, left_front, right_front.

Request

{
  "model": "3.0",
  "multi_view_images": [
    { "view_type": "front", "view_image": "data:image/png;base64,..." },
    { "view_type": "left", "view_image": "data:image/png;base64,..." },
    { "view_type": "right", "view_image": "data:image/png;base64,..." }
  ],
  "enable_pbr": true
}

Rapid Edition

POST

/v1/3d-models/tencent/generate/rapid/

Faster 3D generation with simplified parameters. Supports text-to-3D and image-to-3D. Base cost is 35 credits (+20 for PBR).

}

Rapid Edition Parameters

Parameter	Type	Required	Description
prompt	string	Conditional	Text description (max 1024 chars). Required if no image provided.
image	string	Conditional	Base64-encoded image. Required if no prompt.
enable_pbr	boolean	No	Enable PBR textures. Default: false. Adds 20 credits.
enable_geometry	boolean	No	Enable geometry optimization. Default: false.

Checking Status

GET

/v1/generation-request/<task_id>/status/

Poll this endpoint with the task_id from the submit response. When status is "FINISHED", the results array contains your 3D model files with download URLs and thumbnails. Results expire after 24 hours.

Request

curl https://api.3daistudio.com/v1/generation-request/YOUR_TASK_ID/status/ \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY"

Response

{
  "status": "FINISHED",
  "progress": 100,
  "results": [
    {
      "asset_url": "https://cdn.3daistudio.com/models/abc123.glb",
      "asset": "https://storage.3daistudio.com/assets/abc123.glb",

    }
  ]
}

Credit Costs

Edition	Base	+ PBR	+ Multi-View	Max
Pro	60	+20	+20	100
Rapid	35	+20	N/A	55

Processing Times

The Rapid edition typically takes 2–3 minutes to generate a model. The Pro edition takes longer at 3–6 minutes, depending on the complexity of the input and selected options. Enabling PBR textures or providing multi-view images may add additional processing time.
