Provider setup

Axtolab AI Image Generation uses the provider credentials you configure. Keep provider keys private and start with a small test image before using the workflow on production content.

Before adding a provider key

Check:

• AI Connector is installed and active.
• The Image Generation add-on is installed and licensed.
• You have provider credentials for a supported provider.
• You understand that provider usage may create charges on that provider account.

Do not paste provider keys into support tickets or AI chat prompts.

Configure the provider

1. Open the Image Generation settings area in WordPress.
2. Choose the provider you want to use.
3. Add the provider credential in the field shown by the plugin.
4. Save settings.
5. Run the provider test if one is available.

If the provider test fails, check that the key is active, has the required provider permissions, and has not hit a quota or billing limit.

First media test

Use a small, reviewable prompt.

Example:

Generate a simple editorial image for a WordPress setup guide. Avoid logos, trademarks, faces, and text inside the image.

After generation:

1. Confirm the media item appears in the WordPress media library.
2. Open the media item and review image quality.
3. Add useful alt text.
4. Use it on a draft first, not a live page.

Production habits

• Review every generated image before publishing.
• Avoid asking for third-party logos, copyrighted characters, or realistic people unless you have a clear right to use the result.
• Keep provider spend limits set in the provider account where available.
• Rotate provider keys if a key is exposed.
