Image Analysis Endpoints

The Verity image analysis endpoints are:

POST /image/classification

Initiates a new image analysis.

GET /image/classification/{uuid}/status

Returns the status of the image analysis.

GET /image/classification/{uuid}

Returns processed results.

Image URL Requirements

In the POST image/classification endpoint, you’ll specify the URL of an individual image for analysis. The URL specified in <IMAGE_URL> must meet the following requirements:

Start with http:// or https://.
Have a properly URL-encoded address.
Any request parameter values must be properly URL-encoded.

Example Image Request

This example shows a request to analyze the following image URL:

https://media3.s-nbcnews.com/j/newscms/2020_18/2724881/190122-handguns-new-york-cs-1005a_ae30ba7e5164f948822ba8d42c3db791.fit-1240w.jpg

Step 1 – Submit a POST request via curl to /image/classification

Submit an analysis request. Specify an individual image URL.

 curl -X POST "https://verity-api.gumgum.com/image/classification" -H "accept: */*" -H "x-api-key: abd" -H "Content-Type: application/json;charset=UTF-8" -d "{\"url\": \"https://media-cldnry.s-nbcnews.com/image/upload/t_fit-1240w,f_auto,q_auto:best/newscms/2020_18/2724881/190122-handguns-new-york-cs-1005a.jpg\"}"

Verity API returns a JSON response with Content-Type: application/json; charset=UTF-8 showing showing a uuid for the request and current request status, for example:

{
  "uuid": "c7bcbe04-ea77-4808-8e91-28d325d1b1fc",
  "url": "https://media3.s-nbcnews.com/j/newscms/2020_18/2724881/190122-handguns-new-york-cs-1005a_ae30ba7e5164f948822ba8d42c3db791.fit-1240w.jpg",
  "acceptedAt": "2021-06-10T00:05:22.508Z"
}

For a list of supported status messages, refer to Application Status Codes.

Step 2 – Submit a GET request to /image/classification/{uuid}/status

Submit a GET request to /image/classification/{uuid}/status specifying the uuid returned in the previous step. Within a short period, once analysis of the image is complete, a status change occurs. For example:

curl -H 'x-api-key: <YOUR_API_KEY_HERE>' https://verity-api.gumgum.com/image/classification/c7bcbe04-ea77-4808-8e91-28d325d1b1fc/status

Verity API returns a JSON response with Content-Type: application/json; charset=UTF-8 showing the request has the following status:

Step 3 – Submit a GET request to /image/classification/{uuid}

Submit a GET request to /image/classification/{uuid} , specifying the uuid returned in the response during Step 1. Within a short period, once analysis of the image is complete, a status change occurs. For example:

Example Image JSON Response Body
