# Batch Processing with Images The python batch helper library can be used to submit images to Parasail batch processing endpoints. For detailed information about this library, please read the [Quick start](/parasail-docs/batch/batch-quickstart.md) page. The library can be installed with the following command: ``` pip install openai-batch ``` The following example file in the github repo shows how this library can be used to read a directory full of images and submit to the `Qwen/Qwen3-VL-8B-Instruct` . The library will automatically read the image files, convert to Base64 format, insert into the batch submission, and store the results in the output directory. {% @github-files/github-code-block url="" %} --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
