What It Does

Accepts a list of direct image URLs (JPG, PNG, or WebP)
Downloads each image and submits it to the OpenAI GPT Image edit endpoint
Returns colorized results including a hosted image URL, processing time, and status
Handles failures gracefully — each image produces a record regardless of outcome

Inputs

Field	Type	Required	Description
`imageUrls`	array of strings	Yes	Direct URLs to B&W manga/anime panel images
`openaiApiKey`	string	Yes	Your OpenAI API key (starts with `sk-`). Get one at https://platform.openai.com/api-keys
`colorStyle`	string	No	Colorization style prompt. Default: `vibrant manga-style colors appropriate to the scene and characters`
`outputSize`	string	No	Output image size: `1024x1024` (default), `1024x1536`, `1536x1024`, or `auto`
`maxItems`	integer	No	Maximum number of panels to colorize. Defaults to all provided

Output

Each processed image produces one dataset record:

Field	Type	Description
`sourceUrl`	string	Original input image URL
`colorizedUrl`	string	URL to the colorized image in Apify Key-Value Store
`style`	string	Colorization prompt used
`outputSize`	string	Output dimensions
`processingMs`	number	API round-trip time in milliseconds
`model`	string	OpenAI model used (`gpt-image-1`)
`colorizedAt`	string	ISO 8601 timestamp
`status`	string	`ok` or `error`
`errorMsg`	string	Error details when `status` is `error`

Requirements

OpenAI API key — this actor calls the OpenAI Images Edit API. You must supply your own key. Charges apply per image processed (see OpenAI pricing).
Supported image formats: JPG, JPEG, PNG, WebP, GIF
Maximum image size: 20 MB per file

Example

Input:

{
  "imageUrls": [
    "https://example.com/manga-panel-1.jpg"
  ],
  "openaiApiKey": "sk-...",
  "colorStyle": "vibrant manga-style colors appropriate to the scene and characters",
  "outputSize": "1024x1024"
}

Output record (success):

{
  "sourceUrl": "https://example.com/manga-panel-1.jpg",
  "colorizedUrl": "https://api.apify.com/v2/key-value-stores/abc123/records/panel_xxx",
  "style": "vibrant manga-style colors appropriate to the scene and characters",
  "outputSize": "1024x1024",
  "processingMs": 8420,
  "model": "gpt-image-1",
  "colorizedAt": "2026-06-10T12:00:00.000Z",
  "status": "ok",
  "errorMsg": null
}

Notes

Colorized images are stored in Apify Key-Value Store (colorized-panels) accessible via the returned URLs during the run's data retention window.
Up to 2 images are processed concurrently to maximize throughput while respecting OpenAI rate limits.
Images that fail (network error, unsupported format, API error) still produce a dataset record with status: "error" — the run does not abort on partial failures.
