API Usage

import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

const client = new ApifyClient({ token: 'YOUR_TOKEN' });
const run = await client.actor('viralanalyzer/review-analyzer-image-generator').call({
    imageUrl: 'https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/a7/Camponotus_flavomarginatus_ant.jpg/640px-Camponotus_flavomarginatus_ant.jpg',
    upscale: true,
    faceEnhance: true,
    outputAspect: 'both',
    outputResolution: '4K',
});

const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
console.log(items[0].landscapeUrl); // → 4K landscape PNG URL
console.log(items[0].portraitUrl);  // → 4K portrait PNG URL

from apify_client import ApifyClient

client = ApifyClient('YOUR_TOKEN')
