# Replicate Replicate Block

Blocks for running any AI model hosted on the Replicate platform.

## Replicate Model

### What it is

Run Replicate models synchronously

### How it works

This block runs any model hosted on Replicate using their API. Specify the model name in owner/model format, provide inputs as a dictionary, and optionally pin to a specific version.

The block waits for completion and returns the model output along with status information.

### Inputs

| Input              | Description                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                        | Type                                    | Required |
| ------------------ | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | --------------------------------------- | -------- |
| model\_name        | The Replicate model name (format: 'owner/model-name')                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                              | str                                     | Yes      |
| model\_inputs      | Dictionary of inputs to pass to the model. Values may be strings, integers, floats, or booleans — Replicate model schemas commonly require booleans (e.g. `generate_audio`, `safety_checker`) and floats (e.g. `temperature`, `guidance_scale`).                                                                                   | Dict\[str, str \| int \| float \| bool] | No       |
| files              | Files (image, audio, video, etc.) to send to the model. Each file is uploaded to Replicate and passed to the model under the field named by `file_input_field`. Pass file references (URLs, uploaded files) here instead of inlining base64 in `model_inputs`.                                                                     | List\[str (file)]                       | No       |
| file\_input\_field | Name of the model input field that receives the uploaded `files`. Defaults to `image`, the most common name. Check the model's schema on Replicate for the exact name (common alternatives: `input_image`, `img`, `image_input`, `audio`, `video`, `mask`). A single file is sent as one value; multiple files are sent as a list. | str                                     | No       |
| version            | Version hash of the model to run. Leave empty to run the latest version: official models run through Replicate's model endpoint, and community models run their latest published version.                                                                                                                                          | str                                     | No       |

### Outputs

| Output      | Description                           | Type |
| ----------- | ------------------------------------- | ---- |
| error       | Error message if the operation failed | str  |
| result      | The output from the Replicate model   | str  |
| status      | Status of the prediction              | str  |
| model\_name | Name of the model used                | str  |

### Possible use case

**Model Flexibility**: Access thousands of open-source AI models from a single interface.

**Custom Models**: Run your own models deployed on Replicate in workflows.

**Specialized AI Tasks**: Use best-of-breed models for specific tasks like upscaling, segmentation, or captioning.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://agpt.co/docs/integrations/block-integrations/replicate_block.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
