## About

## What it does
Resize Image lets you rescale any image from a public URL to the exact size you need. Send a `GET` request to `/rescale-image` with the source `url` and the target `width` and `height`, and the response is the resized image as binary data, ready to save or serve.

All four of `url`, `width`, `height`, and `crop` are required. The `url` can be up to 1000 characters long, and `width` and `height` each accept values from 1 to 5000 pixels. The `crop` parameter is a boolean that controls whether the image is cropped while it is rescaled.

Because the response is the image itself and not JSON, you can write it straight to a file, stream it to a client, or pass it to the next step of an image workflow without extra decoding.

Use Resize Image when you need thumbnails for listings and cards, fixed-size pictures for layouts, normalized image sizes in an upload pipeline, or lightweight resizing without hosting your own image processing.

## Usage

Base URL: `https://api.eu.apyhub.com` (default region — see
`GET https://apyhub.com/api/public/regions` for the rest).

Authenticate with an ApyHub API key in the `apy-token` header.
