How to Use Meshy6 API

Step 1: Create an Account

Sign up at Hypereal to get started with Meshy6 API.

Step 2: Get Your API Key

Generate your API key from the dashboard. Keep it secure and never expose it in client-side code.

Step 3: Install SDK (Optional)

npm install hypereal
# or
pip install hypereal

Step 4: Text-to-3D Generation

const response = await fetch('https://api.hypereal.com/v1/meshy6-text-to-3d', {
  method: 'POST',
  headers: {
    'Authorization': 'Bearer YOUR_API_KEY',
    'Content-Type': 'application/json'
  },
  body: JSON.stringify({
    prompt: 'a medieval sword with ornate golden handle',
    art_style: 'realistic',
    topology: 'triangle',
    target_polycount: 30000,
    enable_pbr: true
  })
});

const result = await response.json();
console.log(result);

Step 5: Image-to-3D Generation

const response = await fetch('https://api.hypereal.com/v1/meshy6-image-to-3d', {
  method: 'POST',
  headers: {
    'Authorization': 'Bearer YOUR_API_KEY',
    'Content-Type': 'application/json'
  },
  body: JSON.stringify({
    image: 'https://example.com/your-image.png',
    topology: 'triangle',
    target_polycount: 30000,
    enable_pbr: true,
    should_texture: true
  })
});

const result = await response.json();
console.log(result);

Step 6: Handle the Response

if (result.status === 'success') {
  console.log('3D Model URLs:', result.outputs);
} else {
  console.error('Error:', result.error);
}

API Parameters

Text-to-3D Parameters

Parameter	Type	Required	Default	Description
prompt	string	Yes	-	Description of the 3D model (max 600 chars)
art_style	string	No	realistic	Art style: realistic or sculpture
topology	string	No	triangle	Mesh type: quad or triangle
target_polycount	integer	No	30000	Target polygons (100-300000)
enable_pbr	boolean	No	false	Generate PBR material maps

Image-to-3D Parameters

Parameter	Type	Required	Default	Description
image	string	Yes	-	Image URL or base64 data URI
topology	string	No	triangle	Mesh type: quad or triangle
target_polycount	integer	No	30000	Target polygons (100-300000)
enable_pbr	boolean	No	false	Generate PBR material maps
should_texture	boolean	No	true	Generate textures

Best Practices

1. Use high-quality images - For image-to-3D, use clear, well-lit images
2. Be descriptive - For text-to-3D, provide detailed prompts
3. Choose appropriate topology - Use quad for smooth surfaces, triangle for detail
4. Optimize polycount - Balance quality with file size needs
5. Enable PBR for games - Use PBR maps for game-ready assets
