Image & Video

Use image and video tools to generate hosted visual assets for Playbook outputs

Image & Video Tools help Playbooks create and retrieve visual assets that downstream systems can reference. Use them when a Playbook needs a generated image, a stock image, or a hosted image URL for a CMS, landing page, social post, or content artifact.

Tools

Image Generation

Generate hosted images with GPT Image 2 or Nano Banana 2. Hosted image outputs are useful when a downstream Tool publishes content to a CMS or stores a finished artifact.

Use Image Generation when a Playbook needs a new image or an edited source image. GPT Image 2 supports high-resolution generation and strong text rendering. Nano Banana 2 is useful for fast generation and image editing workflows.

Search Stock Images

Search Getty Images or Unsplash for relevant stock photography. Use Search Stock Images when a Playbook needs sourced imagery instead of generated imagery.

Fetch Stock Image with ID

Fetch a specific stock image from Getty Images or Unsplash by its image ID. Use this after a search step when the Playbook has selected the image that should appear in the final Artifact or downstream publish action.

How to Configure

1. Open the Playbook editor.
2. Type / in the Section where the visual should be created.
3. Select Image Generation, Search Stock Images, or Fetch Stock Image with ID.
4. Describe the image subject, style, source, aspect ratio, dimensions, and usage context.
5. Tell the Playbook where to use the hosted image URL in the final artifact.
