Image

Arcentry makes it easy to download your diagram as images from the app - and now you can do the same programmatically using these API endpoints. Even better: Using Arcentry's image/create-from-diagram endpoint you can auto-generate diagram images out of simple CSVs or JSON files without ever having to open the app.

PNGs

All image generation endpoints return png image data. You can save the result of the request as a normal some-image.png file.

Querystring Parameter

Both endpoints support the following query string parameter.

  • key your API key. (Optional, can also be provided as a Bearer Token).
  • width the width of the desired image in pixels. (Optional, defaults to 1400)
  • component-size the desired width of one component or grid cell in the resulting image. (Optional, default is image with width=1400)
  • view The view the diagram should be rendered in. Either 2D or 3D. (Optional, defaults to 3D)

Timing

Image creation can take up to 15 seconds. Please allow for sufficient request timeouts.

Creates an image from a given document

Renders a document with a given DOC_ID and returns the result as png.

Auto Generate a Diagram as Image

This endpoint is built on top of Arcentry's automated diagram creation. It allows you to upload a CSV or JSON file which Arcentry will automatically turn into a diagram, take a picture of and return this picture without any further work - isn't life awesome?
Please note - this endpoint supports all styling options for auto-created diagrams. Simple append them as query string parameters.
