POST /v1/imaging/image-strip-metadata
curl -X POST "$DOATHING_API/v1/imaging/image-strip-metadata" \
-H "x-api-key: $DOATHING_KEY" \
-H "content-type: application/json" \
-d '{"file": {"filename": "photo.jpg", "content_type": "image/jpeg", "data_b64": "<base64>"}}'
Location, camera, timestamps and editing history removed before you post it anywhere.
Remove EXIF, GPS, IPTC and XMP metadata from an image, re-encoding the pixel data unchanged.
Input
Send a file object with base64 data_b64, its content_type and a filename. Accepted types: image/png, image/jpeg, image/webp, image/gif, image/tiff.
The declared type is not trusted — the bytes are sniffed and a contradiction is rejected rather than corrected.
Response
The result carries your remaining balance alongside it, so you can track spend without a second call.

Cost
2 credits per call, whether it is run from the site or from the API — the credential differs, the price does not. A new account starts with 20 credits.
A rejected request still costs a credit: the authorizer decrements before the tool validates. A call rejected for a missing or invalid key is free.
Parameters
Generated from the endpoint’s own validation, so this is exactly what it accepts. A body field goes at the top level; an option goes inside options.
