Images API

The Images API supports uploading and editing images that could be used as splash post image, teaser, social teaser and even other features than posts such as authors creation.

Ratios

Every site in RebelMouse platform has its own image crops configured, these settings are useful when an image is going to be resized or cropped. So they are considered in every process related to images, and each resized or cropped image has usually a different purpose depending on page type.

For Axios, we have the following ratios configured:

Title Code Sizes
Super Wide 3x1
  • 1200x400
  • 600x200
Wide 2x1
  • 1200x600
  • 600x300
Medium 3x2
  • 1200x800
  • 600x400
Square 1x1
  • 600x600
  • 300x300
Tall 9x16
  • 700x1245
Widescreen 16x9
  • 1245x700

Uploading images

Upload a image sending its content as a part of HTTP request body or sending a URL as part of a JSON document.

POST /api/1.3/images

Parameters

Name Type Description
image_url String A image URL location - Optional

Note

  • Multiple files can be also sent as part of HTTP request. They are used only if image_url is not used in HTTP request.
  • For requests with "multipart/form-data" content type, files should be named with "file".

Example with multipart/form-data
