png-to-svg

Embed a PNG image inside an SVG wrapper. The PNG data is base64-encoded and placed as a data URI inside an SVG <image> element. This is not vectorization -- the output is a raster image wrapped in SVG.

Endpoint

POST /v1/convert/png-to-svg

Content-Type: multipart/form-data

Accepted input: .png files

Output format: .svg (image/svg+xml)

Authentication

Requires either a private API key or a JWT token from a public key.

X-API-Key: sk_live_your_private_key

Or:

Authorization: Bearer <jwt_token>

Request Parameters

Conversion Details

• The PNG is base64-encoded and embedded inside an SVG <image> element as a data URI
• The SVG dimensions and viewBox match the original image's pixel dimensions
• Transparency in the PNG is preserved in the embedded data
• This is NOT vectorization -- the output contains the full raster image data, not vector paths
