Tripo 3D v3.1

Tripo AI
by Tripo AI

Tripo 3D v3.1 is a high-fidelity 3D generation model that creates production-ready 3D assets from text prompts or images. It delivers enhanced detail, stronger geometry precision, and improved texture quality compared to earlier versions, with support for PBR materials and export in GLB, FBX, OBJ, and STL formats.

Tripo 3D v3.1

API Options

Platform-level options for task execution and delivery.

taskType

string required value: 3dInference

Identifier for the type of task being performed

taskUUID

string required UUID v4

UUID v4 identifier for tracking tasks and matching async responses. Must be unique per task.

outputType

string default: URL

3D output type.

Allowed values 1 value

outputFormat

string default: GLB

Specifies the file format of the generated output. The available values depend on the task type and the specific model's capabilities.

  • `GLB`: Binary glTF format for 3D models, including geometry, textures, and PBR materials.
Allowed values 1 value

webhookURL

string URI

Specifies a webhook URL where JSON responses will be sent via HTTP POST when generation tasks complete. For batch requests with multiple results, each completed item triggers a separate webhook call as it becomes available.

deliveryMethod

string default: async

Determines how the API delivers task results.

Allowed values 2 values
Returns complete results directly in the API response.
Returns an immediate acknowledgment with the task UUID. Poll for results using getResponse.

uploadEndpoint

string URI

Specifies a URL where the generated content will be automatically uploaded using the HTTP PUT method. The raw binary data of the media file is sent directly as the request body. For secure uploads to cloud storage, use presigned URLs that include temporary authentication credentials.

Common use cases:

  • Cloud storage: Upload directly to S3 buckets, Google Cloud Storage, or Azure Blob Storage using presigned URLs.
  • CDN integration: Upload to content delivery networks for immediate distribution.
// S3 presigned URL for secure upload
https://your-bucket.s3.amazonaws.com/generated/content.mp4?X-Amz-Signature=abc123&X-Amz-Expires=3600

// Google Cloud Storage presigned URL
https://storage.googleapis.com/your-bucket/content.jpg?X-Goog-Signature=xyz789

// Custom storage endpoint
https://storage.example.com/uploads/generated-image.jpg

The content data will be sent as the request body to the specified URL when generation is complete.

ttl

integer min: 60

Time-to-live (TTL) in seconds for generated content. Only applies when outputType is URL.

includeCost

boolean default: false

Include task cost in the response.

numberResults

integer min: 1 max: 4 default: 1

Number of results to generate. Each result uses a different seed, producing variations of the same parameters.

Inputs

Input resources for the task (images, audio, etc). These must be nested inside the inputs object.

inputs » images

images

array of strings min items: 1max items: 4

Image inputs for image-to-3D or multiview-to-3D generation (UUID, URL, Data URI, or Base64).

Generation Parameters

Core parameters for controlling the generated content.

model

string required value: tripo:v3.1@0

Identifier of the model to use for generation.

positivePrompt

string max: 1024

Text prompt describing elements to include in the generated output.

negativePrompt

string max: 255

Prompt to guide what to exclude from generation. Ignored when guidance is disabled (CFGScale ≤ 1).

seed

integer min: 0 max: 20240919

Random seed for reproducible generation. When not provided, a random seed is generated in the unsigned 32-bit range.

Settings

Technical parameters to fine-tune the inference process. These must be nested inside the settings object.

settings » autoSize

autoSize

boolean default: false

Scales the model to real-world dimensions in meters.

settings » compress

compress

string default: meshopt

Compression method for the output mesh.

Allowed values 2 values
Geometry-based compression. Requires decompression for editing.
Default mesh optimization compression.
settings » exportUv

exportUv

boolean default: true

Enables UV unwrapping on the output mesh.

settings » faceLimit

faceLimit

integer min: 500 max: 20000

Maximum number of faces (polygons) in the output mesh. If not set, determined adaptively. Range depends on mode: 1000–20000 for low-poly, 500–10000 for quad.

settings » generateParts

generateParts

boolean default: false

Generates segmented 3D models with individually editable parts.

settings » geometryQuality

geometryQuality

string default: standard

Controls the geometric detail level of the output mesh.

Allowed values 2 values
Balanced detail and generation speed.
Maximum geometric detail. Slower generation.
settings » imageAutoFix

imageAutoFix

boolean default: false

Optimizes the input image for better 3D generation results.

settings » orientation

orientation

string default: default

Controls model orientation.

Allowed values 2 values
Default model orientation.
Rotates the model to match the input image viewpoint.
settings » pbr

pbr

boolean default: true

Enables physically-based rendering materials.

settings » quad

quad

boolean default: false

Enables quad mesh output.

settings » smartLowPoly

smartLowPoly

boolean default: false

Generates low-poly meshes optimized for simple inputs. May fail on complex models.

settings » texture

boolean default: true

Enables texturing on the generated model. Set to false for a base model without textures.

settings » textureAlignment

Controls texture alignment priority.

Allowed values 2 values
Prioritizes visual fidelity to the source image. May introduce minor 3D inconsistencies.
