Node Overview
DALL·E 3 is OpenAI’s latest image generation model, capable of creating detailed and high-quality images based on text prompts. Through this node in ComfyUI, you can directly access DALL·E 3’s generation capabilities without leaving the ComfyUI interface. The OpenAI DALL·E 3 node generates images synchronously through OpenAI’s image generation API. It receives text prompts and returns images that match the description.To use the API nodes, you need to ensure that you are logged in properly and using a permitted network environment. Please refer to the API Nodes Overview section of the documentation to understand the specific requirements for using the API nodes.
Make sure your ComfyUI is updated.Workflows in this guide can be found in the Workflow Templates.
If you can’t find them in the template, your ComfyUI may be outdated.(Desktop version’s update will delay sometime)If nodes are missing when loading a workflow, possible reasons:
- You are not using the latest ComfyUI version(Nightly version)
- You are using Stable or Desktop version (Latest changes may not be included)
- Some nodes failed to import at startup
