FLUX.1 is all the rage these days, and for good reason. It’s a fast, powerful image generation model that’s easy to use and fine-tune, and it generates stunning images.Last week we brought you a guide to fine-tuning Flux with faces. That guide used an entirely web-based flow to create a fine-tuned Flux model, without writing a single line of code.We heard from some users that they would like to fine-tune Flux with an API, so we’re back this week with another tutorial that shows you how to do just that.In this guide, you’ll create and run your own fine-tuned Flux models programmatically using Replicate’s HTTP API.Kick off your Flux trainings programmatically with Replicate’s HTTP API.Step 0: PrerequisitesHere’s what you’ll need to get started:
A Replicate account
A handful of training images
A small budget of 2-3 US dollars for training costs
cURL, the beloved command-line tool for making HTTP requests that’s been around since the 1990s
