size: optional string or "1024x1024" or "1024x1536" or "1536x1024" or "auto"The size of the generated images. For gpt-image-2 and gpt-image-2-2026-04-21, arbitrary resolutions are supported as WIDTHxHEIGHT strings, for example 1536x864. Width and height must both be divisible by 16 and the requested aspect ratio must be between 1:3 and 3:1. Resolutions above 2560x1440 are experimental, and the maximum supported resolution is 3840x2160. The requested size must also satisfy the model’s current pixel and edge limits. The standard sizes 1024x1024, 1536x1024, and 1024x1536 are supported by the GPT image models; auto is supported for models that allow automatic sizing. For dall-e-2, use one of 256x256, 512x512, or 1024x1024. For dall-e-3, use one of 1024x1024, 1792x1024, or 1024x1792.
