--- title: Qwen-Image-3.0 | Runware Docs url: https://runware.ai/docs/models/alibaba-qwen-image-3-0 description: Unified Qwen image generation and editing with multi-image input and adaptive resolution control --- # Qwen-Image-3.0 Qwen-Image-3.0 is a unified image model from Alibaba for both text-to-image generation and prompt-guided image editing. It supports one to three reference images for editing, automatic prompt expansion, negative prompts, reproducible seeded generation, and adaptive or user-specified output sizes. It supports text-to-image resolutions from 512x512 up to 2048x2048 and image editing resolutions up to 1440x1440, making it a strong fit for high-quality visual creation, controlled edits, and multi-image reference workflows. - **ID**: `alibaba:qwen-image@3.0` - **Status**: live - **Creator**: Alibaba - **Release Date**: July 20, 2026 - **Capabilities**: Text to Image, Image to Image, Edit, Checkpoint ## Compatibility & Validation When `providerSettings.alibaba.promptExtend` is `false`, `providerSettings.alibaba.promptExtendMode` cannot be used. --- `width` and `height` must be used together. ## Request Parameters **API Options** Platform-level options for task execution and delivery. ### [taskType](https://runware.ai/docs/models/alibaba-qwen-image-3-0#request-tasktype) - **Type**: `string` - **Required**: true - **Value**: `imageInference` Identifier for the type of task being performed ### [taskUUID](https://runware.ai/docs/models/alibaba-qwen-image-3-0#request-taskuuid) - **Type**: `string` - **Required**: true - **Format**: `UUID v4` UUID v4 identifier for tracking tasks and matching async responses. Must be unique per task. ### [outputType](https://runware.ai/docs/models/alibaba-qwen-image-3-0#request-outputtype) - **Type**: `string` - **Default**: `URL` Image output type. **Allowed values**: `URL` `base64Data` `dataURI` ### [outputFormat](https://runware.ai/docs/models/alibaba-qwen-image-3-0#request-outputformat) - **Type**: `string` - **Default**: `JPG` Specifies the file format of the generated output. The available values depend on the task type and the specific model's capabilities. - \`JPG\`: Best for photorealistic images with smaller file sizes (no transparency). - \`PNG\`: Lossless compression, supports high quality and transparency (alpha channel). - \`WEBP\`: Modern format providing superior compression and transparency support. > [!NOTE] > \*\*Transparency\*\*: If you are using features like background removal or LayerDiffuse that require transparency, you must select a format that supports an alpha channel (e.g., \`PNG\`, \`WEBP\`, \`TIFF\`). \`JPG\` does not support transparency. **Allowed values**: `JPG` `PNG` `WEBP` ### [outputQuality](https://runware.ai/docs/models/alibaba-qwen-image-3-0#request-outputquality) - **Type**: `integer` - **Min**: `20` - **Max**: `99` - **Default**: `95` Compression quality of the output.
