Apixly Creative Controls for Dify

Five free tools for viewpoint, lighting and camera-look prompts. Preview inside Dify's plugin runtime with no Apixly account, API key or model request. Dify's own runtime costs remain your operator's responsibility.

Build your prompt with four small nodes

Add Viewpoint, Lighting, and Camera & Lens. Each card contains only its own controls.
Enable the groups you need, then choose presets or values. Lighting offers Named direction / Coordinates; blank coordinates never become zero automatically.
Connect each settings output to its matching input on Compose prompt, along with your base prompt. Choose Edit to request preservation of existing subject and scene details.
Run the free preview and read . Connect a generation tool only when is true.

All groups default off. With no added instruction, the base prompt stays exactly unchanged. These are AI creative instructions, rather than a physical camera or light simulation. The original Preview creative prompt · free tool remains available for older workflows.

Actual Community 1.17.1 editor, with controls off. Dify supplies the native cards and widgets.

Familiar Studio presets

Short camera/lens labels and eight inline lighting swatches reuse Apixly Studio's existing controls. Optional selectors include Unspecified, so a look can be removed again.

See the result before generating

This explicitly enabled demo produced the final prompt without a Key or generation call. View the desktop running page, or the actual 375px result below.

Ready to import

Workflow	Required plugins	Result
Free preview	Creative Controls	Prompt or safe validation message; no generation
Creative image	Creative Controls + Apixly Media	One image task and files
Reference edit	Creative Controls + Apixly Media	One reference-edit task and files
Creative video	Creative Controls + Apixly Media	One video task and files

The original eight workflows remain available. Install the exact packages referenced by your downloaded DSL. Invalid controls emit a failed settings packet; Compose stops and the examples route to a safe error before any media node.

Optional generation requires the separate Apixly Media plugin and its own credential. The plugin is free; API usage is charged to your Apixly account.

Verification and privacy

On Community 1.17.1, native checks covered five free tools alongside Apixly Media, 12 combined workflow imports, 53 editor panels with preserved bindings, and seven controlled-input cases in the real workflow engine. The local published preview ran on desktop and at 375px. These checks made no inference call. QA scope and host limitations · Screenshot sources and hashes.

Creative compilation adds no external API, independent storage or telemetry. Dify may retain workflow inputs and outputs under workspace settings. Read PRIVACY.md. Cloud compatibility is unverified. Optional account-connected media workflows have their own delivery and retention verification; this formatter still requires no account or generation call.
