Course 2: Building with MIFY — Chapter 3

Chapter 3: Content Generation Workflows

Generate images, video, and text through MIFY’s three execution paths.

What You’ll Learn

• The three content generation paths
• How to submit generation jobs via API
• How to track job status and retrieve results

Three Paths

Path	API Endpoint	How It Works
MIFY Queue	POST /api/content-gen/queue	Async — submits to GPU providers, webhook callback
AI Provider	POST /api/content-gen/provider	Sync or SSE streaming
ComfyUI Local	POST /api/content-gen/comfyui-local/finalize	Local GPU execution

Path 1: AI Provider (Sync)

Fastest for text and quick image generation:

curl -X POST \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer mify_xxx" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "provider": "OpenAI",
    "model": "gpt-4o",
    "input": {"prompt": "Write a product description for a smart water bottle"},
    "outputType": "text"
  }' \
  https://your-instance/api/content-gen/provider

Path 2: MIFY Queue (Async GPU)

For high-quality image/video generation:

curl -X POST \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer mify_xxx" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "workflowSlug": "sdxl-txt2img",
    "overrides": {"positive_prompt": "a sunset over mountains, photorealistic"},
    "idempotencyKey": "unique-key-123"
  }' \
  https://your-instance/api/content-gen/queue

Returns a runId. Check status:

curl -H "Authorization: Bearer mify_xxx" \
  https://your-instance/api/content-gen/runs/{runId}

Tracking History

# List all your generations
curl -H "Authorization: Bearer mify_xxx" \
  https://your-instance/api/content-gen/runs

# Delete from history
curl -X DELETE -H "Authorization: Bearer mify_xxx" \
  https://your-instance/api/content-gen/runs/{runId}

Exercise

1. Generate text via the Provider path using curl
2. Submit an image generation job via the Queue path
3. Poll the run status until it completes
4. List all your generation history via API
5. Try the same in the UI at /content-gen
