API-dokumentation

Udtræk metadata fra filer ved hjælp af vores enkle og kraftfulde API. Kom i gang med din API-nøgle og begynd at analysere filer programmatisk.

Autentificering

Alle API-anmodninger kræver en API-nøgle. Du kan angive den på to måder:

1. I anmodningshovedet:

X-API-Key: YOUR_API_KEY_HERE

2. Som en forespørgselsparameter:

?key=YOUR_API_KEY_HERE

Anmod om API-nøgle Se Kodeeksempler

Udtræk Metadata

POST https://exiftools.com/api/v1/extract

Udtræk metadata fra en fil ved hjælp af direkte filopload eller en URL. Resultater returneres øjeblikkeligt (synkron behandling). Et check-endepunkt er også tilgængeligt til statusbekræftelse, hvis det er nødvendigt.

Anmodningsparametre

{
  "file": "binary_file_data", // Option 1: direct file upload
  "url": "https://example.com/image.jpg", // Option 2: URL. Can be passed as POST body or query string parameter
  "data_url": "data:image/jpeg;base64,/9j/4AAQ..." // Option 3: base64 data URL
  // Provide exactly one of the above
}

Hent Udtrækningsresultater

GET https://exiftools.com/api/v1/extract/{uuid}

Hent metadata-udtrækningsresultaterne for et specifikt UUID. Brug dette endepunkt til at tjekke status og få resultater efter at have indsendt en fil eller URL til behandling. API-nøgle er valgfri - hvis den angives, filtreres resultaterne til den autentificerede brugers udtræk.

Anmodningsparametre

{
  "uuid": "required", // The UUID returned from the extract endpoint
  "X-API-Key": "optional" // API key in header, or use ?key=YOUR_API_KEY
}

{
  "success": false,
  "error": "Invalid API key"
}

Returneres kun, når en ugyldig API-nøgle angives

404 Not Found

{
  "success": false,
  "error": "No extraction found with the given UUID."
}

Fjern Metadata

POST https://exiftools.com/api/v1/remove

Fjern alle metadata fra en fil, herunder EXIF-data, GPS-placering, IPTC, XMP og andre følsomme oplysninger. Upload en fil direkte eller angiv en URL til behandling. Modtag en renset version uden indlejrede metadata. Den rensede fil er tilgængelig til download via den returnerede URL.

Anmodningsparametre

{
  "file": "binary_file_data", // Option 1: direct file upload
  "url": "https://example.com/image.jpg", // Option 2: URL. Can be passed as POST body or query string parameter
  "data_url": "data:image/jpeg;base64,/9j/4AAQ..." // Option 3: base64 data URL
  // Provide exactly one of the above
}

Eksempel Svar

{
  "success": true,
  "status": "completed",
  "uuid": "123e4567-e89b-12d3-a456-426614174000",
  "downloadUrl": "https://exiftools.com/download-cleaned/123e4567-e89b-12d3-a456-426614174000"
}

DownloadUrl giver et direkte link til at downloade den rensede fil med alle metadata fjernet. Filen vil være tilgængelig til download i 24 timer.
