Batch Generation

Batch Generation lets you create many generations from a spreadsheet of prompts and settings.

Batch Generation is available where your plan and account support it, typically on Pro and Team plans.

Upload a .csv, .xls, .xlsx, or .ods spreadsheet up to 1 MB. A batch can include up to 500 prompt rows plus one header row. Each prompt row becomes one generation, and num_images controls how many images each generation creates.

How to Use Batch Generation

1. Open Batch under the Tools section in the Navigation Bar on the side (desktop) or bottom (mobile).

2. Download the simple or full template.

3. Fill in the spreadsheet using supported columns and values.

4. Upload the spreadsheet.

5. Review the preview, total generations, image count, and required Priority credits.

6. Start the batch.

7. Return to the Batch page to review progress, stop or resume supported jobs, and download completed results as a ZIP file.

Generated images are also available from your Library where your account and current product surface support them.

Template Columns

The full template can include these columns:

Column	Purpose
prompt	Text prompt for the generation.
visibility	Public/private visibility where private generation is supported.
aspect_ratio	Aspect ratio such as 1:1 or 16:9.
magic_prompt	Magic Prompt setting.
model	Model label supported by the batch workflow.
num_images	Number of images for each prompt row.
seed_number	Seed value where supported.
rendering	Render speed where supported by the model.
negative_prompt	Terms or concepts to avoid where supported.
style	Style setting where supported.
color_palette	Preset or custom color palette where supported.

If a column has a default in the template or product flow, Ideogram applies that default when the cell is left blank.

Formatting Tips

• Keep the header row exactly aligned with the template column names.

• Remove example rows before uploading your file.

• Save CSV files as UTF-8 when possible.

• In spreadsheet apps, format cells as text to prevent values such as 2:3 from being converted to dates.

• If upload validation fails, fix the highlighted rows or columns and upload again.

Credits

Batch Generation uses Priority credits. Credit usage depends on the selected model, render speed, number of prompt rows, and num_images value.
