# Transparent backgrounds with one parameter

July 20, 2026

You can now render a transparent PNG by setting `transparent_background: true` on the create image request. It works with both HTML/CSS and URL-based images, as well as saved templates and image batches.

The existing CSS-based transparent background method remains supported. The official clients expose the new option as `TransparentBackground` in .NET and `transparent_background` in TypeScript.
