Use this route to start a Replicate-style prediction on CometAPI and get back a prediction id for later polling.

​
First request checklist

  • Put every model parameter inside the input object
  • Start with black-forest-labs/flux-schnell for the quickest first request
  • Keep the first request text-only unless you specifically need input_image or input_images
  • Save the returned prediction id for status checks

​
Task flow

1

Create the prediction

Submit the path model id and the input object through this endpoint.
2

Store the prediction id

Save the returned id, because you need it for later polling.
3

Poll the prediction

Continue with Replicate Query Status until output is populated or an error appears.
