API-Documentatie

Extraheer metadata uit bestanden met onze eenvoudige en krachtige API. Begin met uw API-sleutel en start met het programmatisch analyseren van bestanden.

Authenticatie

Alle API-verzoeken vereisen een API-sleutel. U kunt deze op twee manieren verstrekken:

1. In de verzoekheader:

X-API-Key: YOUR_API_KEY_HERE

2. Als queryparameter:

?key=YOUR_API_KEY_HERE

Metadata Extraheren

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

Extract metadata from a file using a direct file upload, a URL, or a base64 data URL. Results are returned in the same response when processing finishes within a few seconds; otherwise the API answers 202 with a statusUrl to poll.

Verzoekparameters

{
  "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
}

Extractieresultaten Ophalen

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

Retrieve the metadata extraction results for a specific UUID. Use this endpoint to check the status and get results after submitting a file or URL for processing. Requires your API key.

Verzoekparameters

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

Foutantwoorden

401 Unauthorized

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

Wordt alleen geretourneerd wanneer een ongeldige API-sleutel wordt verstrekt

404 Not Found

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

Metadata Verwijderen

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

Verwijder alle metadata uit een bestand, inclusief EXIF-gegevens, GPS-locatie, IPTC, XMP en andere gevoelige informatie. Upload een bestand rechtstreeks of geef een URL op om te verwerken. Ontvang een schone versie zonder ingesloten metadata. Het schone bestand is beschikbaar voor download via de geretourneerde URL.

Verzoekparameters

{
  "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
}

Voorbeeldantwoord

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

De downloadUrl biedt een directe link om het schone bestand te downloaden met alle metadata verwijderd. Het bestand is 24 uur beschikbaar voor download.

Cleaning runs on a queue. When it takes longer than the request waits, the response is 202 with "status": "processing" and a statusUrl (GET /api/v1/remove/{uuid}, same API key) that returns this same payload once the file is ready. A format no cleaner on the server handles comes back with "unchanged": true and a notice — its metadata is still inside.
