Hey,

I’m complete beginner. I tried a few models in Colab - prithivida/parrot\_paraphraser\_on\_T5 and other paraphrasers.

In Colab I always get an array with few rephrased variants. Then I started to play around with Inference API in Python with the same models, the same input, but I get only one response. Is there any option to get the same what I’m getting in Colab - to get more rephrased variants?

And also, how can I pass specific settings to model via API? Like do\_diverse or max\_length (as API seems to be limiting answer length)?

Thanks you.
